As the launch of “Red Dead Redemption 2” draws near, more and more purchase options and items are being announced by Rockstar Games. The latest is the Collector’s Box with an array of exclusive physical items, except for the actual copy of the video game.

Obviously, the “Red Dead Redemption 2” Collector’s Box is aimed at avid fans who have fervently waited for the release of the sequel for nearly a decade. So it contains collectible items designed and inspired by the “Red Dead Redemption 2” gameplay story and theme.

Since many decisions in the Wild West era were resolved through toss coins, it is just fitting that the “Red Dead Redemption 2” Collector’s Box has a Challenge Coin designed with American Buffalo and “a scenic landscape” on either side. Once video game players want to take a more relaxing game, the Collector’s Box also has a double-sided jigsaw puzzle (with 100 pieces each) that, when completed, shows an image of the Saint-Denis port and the Rockstar Games logo.

An outlaw’s outfit does not look as authentic without a bandana. Luckily, Rockstar Games also included a specially designed Six Shooter Bandana in the “Red Dead Redemption 2” Collector’s Box. Staying true to the Wild West vibe, the package also features a treasure map that is said to be made out of a “durable, unrippable paper.”

As seen in the latest “Red Dead Redemption 2” gameplay trailer, Arthur Morgan’s gang loves to play cards during their free time. With that, the Collector’s Box also comes with a deck of playing cards featuring designs inspired by the Van der Linde gang members. Fans may also decorate some of their belongings with the six pins in the Collector’s Box. These pins are designed based on the “key weapons” in “Red Dead Redemption 2.”

A 150-page catalog of items sold at the Wheeler, Rawson and Co. and the physical version of the 12 collectible cards in the “Red Dead Redemption 2” gameplay are also included in the purchase. All the abovementioned items are placed in a Metal Tithing Box designed to look like a treasure box.

The “Red Dead Redemption 2” Collector’s Box is available only at GameStop and costs $99.99. But, again, fans must keep in mind that they still have to buy the video game separately, with prices starting at $59.99. The Collector’s Box and the actual game will be released on Oct. 26.
