Assassin's Creed II: Black Edition (Limited Collector's Edition)

If you're anything like me, you're a sucker for those fancy 'limited edition' boxsets for games. I just can't say no. Fortunately, the Assassin's Creed II limited edition boxset sports much more than just a pretty case made out of cheap tin. Oh no. The limited edition, which I should point out is officially called the "Black Edition", is Ubisoft's answer to those of us that screamed out for that little something extra.

Assassin's Creed II Black Edition

Interested? You should be - especially if you're a big fan of the Assassin's Creed series. If you do decide to purchase this limited collector's edition, you can expect to receive the following bonus items and goodies included in your bundle:

  1. Collectable black packaging with unique authentic holographic signature
  2. Rare "Master Assassin" upgrade Ezio figurine (see image below) - this limited edition collectable figurine of Ezio wears an upgraded cloak, something Ezio only has access to in the advanced stages of the game.
  3. 3 in-game bonus quests - enter and explore the most prestigious moments of the Renaissance. Reveal mysterious unique artifacts hidden within their walls: Palazzo Medicis in Florence, Santa Maria Dei Frari and Arsenal Shipyard Warehouse in Venice.
  4. Conspiracy Book - this 64-page finely crafted leather style hardcover and parchment-finish page book brings together exclusive insights on the game art, story and background, direct from the developers of Assassin's Creed II. Secret faces are also revealed from the game's overarching conspiracy.
  5. Game Soundtrack by Jesper Kyd (British Academy of Film and Television Arts nominee for "2009 Best Original Score in a Game")
  6. All videos, behind-the-scene interviews and e-goodies about Assassin's Creed II.
