The game that tried to take on Oblivion and lived to tell the tale, now with extra content baked in. Two Worlds Game of the Year Edition for Xbox 360 bundles the base game with the Tainted Blood DLC, giving collectors the most complete physical version of this ambitious open-world RPG.

Two Worlds has one of the more interesting reputations in the 360 library. It launched with sky-high ambitions, aiming to compete directly with The Elder Scrolls in the console space during an era when that was considered borderline foolish. The result was rough around the edges but earnest in its scope, and it developed a devoted following that appreciated what it was trying to do. The Tainted Blood DLC adds to the base adventure, and having it included on disc rather than as a separate download keeps everything physical, the way we like it.

Game of the Year editions from the 360 era are quietly becoming collector's items in their own right. They represent the definitive physical versions of their respective games, complete packages from before patches and digital storefronts made "complete editions" a moving target. For RPG collectors or anyone building a comprehensive 360 library, Two Worlds Game of the Year Edition is the version to own.
