Sometimes a collector's edition doesn't need to overwhelm you. It just needs the right piece. The Devil May Cry Son of Sparda Edition on Xbox 360 for the 2013 DmC reboot keeps things lean and mean, pairing the game with a replica of Dante's necklace and the Samurai Pack DLC.

That necklace is the centerpiece here, a wearable piece of in-universe memorabilia that bridges the gap between display shelf and personal style. Love or hate the reboot's reimagined Dante, the Son of Sparda Edition leaned into the character's new identity with conviction. This dropped during the height of the Xbox 360 generation, when collector's editions were getting bigger and more bloated by the month.

There's something refreshing about a package that picks one meaningful physical item and commits to it. The necklace carries real weight as a prop replica, the kind of thing that sits in a display case and immediately tells visitors you know your Devil May Cry lineage. For collectors who've tracked every version of Dante across every console generation, this is a curious and increasingly scarce piece of the franchise's most divisive chapter.

And divisive chapters, as we all know, tend to age into the most interesting collectibles.
