World In Conflict Collector's Edition
Sierra Entertainment9/18/2007

They put a piece of the Berlin Wall in a video game box. Let that sink in. The World in Conflict Collector's Edition for PC contains an authentic fragment of the actual Berlin Wall, taken from remnants of the barrier that divided Europe during the Cold War. As collector's edition inclusions go, this one operates on a completely different level.

World in Conflict is set in an alternate 1989 where the Soviet Union invades Western Europe instead of collapsing, making the Berlin Wall fragment not just a novelty but a thematically perfect artifact. You're holding a piece of the real history that the game reimagines. Massive Entertainment understood the assignment.

The History Channel's "Modern Marvels: The Berlin Wall" documentary is included, providing the definitive account of the Wall's history and the stories of those who risked everything crossing it. Behind-the-scenes videos explore the making of the game, documenting how the team brought Cold War-era combat to life with then-groundbreaking graphics and destructible environments.

Every other item in every other CE on your shelf is a replica, a reproduction, a manufactured collectible. This one is a piece of actual world history sealed in a PC game box. The sheer audacity of the concept, combined with the thematic relevance to the game's alternate history premise, makes this one of the most memorable collector's editions ever produced for any platform. If you collect PC CEs and you don't have this one, there's a Wall-shaped hole in your collection.
