There is usually a 60-90 day embargo on special edition/opening day dlc. Chances are we don't see these wrestlers available until after Xmas anyway.

And in this case, these three actually are on the disc. Cool.

	not to mention this is a hell of alot cheaper than say battle front.

Not sure what Battlefront has to do with this, but let's check it out.

Battlefront game $60
Season Pass $50
'Complete' game $110

WWE2K game $60
Season Pass $25 (presumably)
Digital Deluxe $90
NXT Enhancement pack - $5-10?
'Complete' game - $90-$100

Eh, close enough.

	yes it sucks they aren't included with the season pass. but exclusives never are. look at arkham knight, hell look at nba2k they do the same exact thing yet i don't ever see anyone complaining about that.

What wasn't included in the Arkham Knight season pass? Also, there's an NBA2K season pass? Do I get the new rookies that were just drafted?!

Other than that, not much of what you said was actually a counter for anything CM Hooe said. Also, friendly tip - multiquote and combine your posts.

I'll be passing on the NXT edition. I'm in canada & no way will I pay $129.99+tax. Most the stuff I have no interest in. https://www.ebgames.ca/PS4/Games/724...17-nxt-edition

I absolutely hate that we don't get the entire current roster on disk, no excuses. DLC should be for the legends who aren't on TV each and every week.

That being said, I'm a sucker. I preordered this edition. I like collectible ****, so I'm cool getting the Nakamura auto. The Balor statue can go next to my figures I all have.

I apparently really wanted Nia Jax in my game day one...

What an unbelievable rip off. 2K knows there are fans out there who are going to eat this up and love every penny they put into it.

This will sell well.

I'll wait for the annual sale where they toss in the Season Pass for free. Silly that in 2016 we are having to pay for characters that are already in the game and on the disc.

# 27 Colbyk5 @ 07/15/16 11:33 AM

Sadly, it's kinda worth it for the extra arenas at launch. Having to download Arenas is a personal pet peeve. However people complaining about the 3 superstars being included as extra can easily buy only them for probably $4 at launch instead. Considering they don't have an "Ultimate Team" mode designed to make us spend more while playing daily, a one-off pretty solid pre-sale deal is valid for 2K to use. This is a way better deal than the other sports titles giving us random packs for our teams, no?

I can understand people's disappointment at the decision, mainly because all three will be on the main roster by the time this game is released. But considering the real value they are including in terms of hard goods, I'm in. It's not just an extra $30 or so to get in-game content that might not even pan out in a card trading mode for some.

I went ahead and pre-ordered the digital deluxe for $75 (PS Store coupon) after seeing this. I can definitely wait.

Isn't that news we already knew though?

# 30 Thrash13 @ 07/15/16 03:09 PM

While it frustrates me that these three roster members won't be shipping with the regular game, I'm just used to these kinds of things with video games these days. It's just the way things are starting to go on a more consistent basis.

That being said, I'm surprised more people aren't more excited about it as I think it's by far the best collector's edition idea the WWE series has had in recent years. I'd much rather have this than any others in the past. My wife is a big Finn Balor fan, so it didn't take much to talk her into this deal. Haha. It's probably not worth $100, but I think I'm going to make it happen anyway. My wife will be happy with the Balor statue, my 8-year old will be happy with the trading card, and I'll be happy with the Shinsuke poster and DLC wrestlers. Win win for my family!

While I do feel it is a tad high on the price, at least the collectors items are actually awesome this year! I like this better than the NBA 2K bundle at almost the same price.

# 32 RedZoneD25 @ 07/19/16 02:35 PM

Looking forward to when this comes up on Amazon. There are definitely some different ways to handle the news of the different versions, but ultimately I do want the stuff in this edition.

# 33 Nature_Boy @ 07/20/16 07:39 AM

I will pass. There's nothing in this collection, IMO, that's worth paying an extra forty bucks. I will just stick with the standard edition of the game.

# 34 Reed1417 @ 07/20/16 09:20 AM

The only thing besides the characters i would like from this is the Balor figure. That being said, it's a shame I'm going to have to wait a month or two to get Nakamura and Jax in my Universe. However, this says to me that they have a much more complete roster this year.....even if these current characters are DLC.

Reed is comin' atcha!

# 35 Hellquist @ 07/28/16 02:13 AM

Why isn't this on Amazon yet? I'm not buying this anywhere else. Taking advantage of my Amazon Prime benefits with pre-orders now. If it's not on Amazon soon, I will just have to wait until the DLC comes out. I usually don't play Universe mode until April when the DLC is out, so I have the complete roster. I'm in no rush.

# 37 Hellquist @ 07/28/16 03:19 PM

You're the best! I just did the same thing now. Thank you!

# 38 Ravensfan30 @ 08/06/16 02:36 PM

I preorder it, I got it for $79.99 on Amazon because I'm Amazon prime member.
