Dead Rising 2 Outbreak Edition
REGION 2

Only 700 units per platform. Let that number sink in for a moment. The Dead Rising 2 Outbreak Edition on PlayStation 3 is one of the rarest special editions from the PS3 generation, a European exclusive that most collectors have never even seen in person, let alone had a chance to own.

This ultra-limited package was built around a detailed 12-inch zombie figurine that comes with interchangeable accessories, including a Servbot head, because this is Dead Rising and absurdity is the whole point. The edition also included a making-of DVD, a Sports Fan Theme Pack, and bonus downloadable content. With production numbers that low, the Outbreak Edition was essentially a limited art piece disguised as a game release. Finding one complete and in good condition is the kind of collector's challenge that keeps the hobby interesting. The figurine alone commands attention on any display shelf, and the Servbot head accessory is a perfect nod to Capcom's crossover humor. This is the white whale tier of Dead Rising collecting. If you spot one, you don't think about it. You act.
