Bakumatsu-era swordplay never looked this good on a shelf. Limited Run #358: The Last Blade 2 Collector's Edition for PS4 packages one of SNK's most elegant fighting games with a suite of NEOGEO-flavored collectibles that'll make any arcade purist's heart skip. Inside you'll find The Last Blade 2 with reversible artwork in a standard PS4 case, a functional classic NEOGEO Shockbox that holds your game case, a commemorative non-functional mini NEOGEO cartridge, three art cards, and a reversible 18" x 24" poster.

The Last Blade 2 occupies a special tier in the fighting game hierarchy. It's the one the hardcore players whisper about, a weapons-based fighter with a parry system and art direction that still turns heads decades later. SNK poured beauty into every frame, and this Collector's Edition respects that legacy.

The NEOGEO Shockbox gives your PS4 disc a proper home, one that nods to the AES era when owning an SNK cartridge meant you were serious about your collection. The mini cartridge is pure display candy, and those art cards showcase the game's stunning character designs. For PS4-era fighting game collectors, this is essential.

The Last Blade 2 never got the mainstream recognition of a Street Fighter or Tekken, which makes this physical release all the more valuable to those of us who know.
