A movie about space Nazis got its own collector's edition video game, and honestly, we're here for it. The Iron Sky Invasion Goetterdaemmerung Edition on Xbox 360 is one of the most wonderfully bizarre premium packages of the entire generation, bundling the game with an exclusive in-game spaceship called the Katar, a bonus DVD with the game soundtrack, trailers, and artwork, a 72-page artbook, a reversible poster featuring both the game and movie art, and the entire Iron Sky film on DVD. That's right.

The movie is in the box. The Goetterdaemmerung Edition commits fully to the bit, treating a cult B-movie tie-in game with the same premium packaging usually reserved for triple-A blockbusters. The 72-page artbook is surprisingly robust for a title of this pedigree, and the reversible poster is a nice nod to the dual identity of the franchise.

This is the kind of collector's edition that doesn't exist anymore. A mid-tier game tied to a cult film, given a lavish physical release during the 360 era when publishers were still willing to take weird swings on retail shelves. For collectors who value the strange, the obscure, and the unapologetically niche, the Goetterdaemmerung Edition is a conversation starter that will confuse and delight anyone who spots it in your collection.
