Pricey Dark Souls III: Prestige Edition Leaks on Geeky Games

Collector's Edition prices are continuously rising--that is a noticeable trend that continues to more than likely aggravate players. Well, a United Arab Emirates retailer Geeky Games has leaked the Prestige Edition, listing it for 1,799 UAE dirhams, or roughly $490 USD. The set includes a game inside a metal case, three iron patches, a cloth map, a hardcover art book, a copy of the soundtrack--and probably what is driving the price so high--and a mighty 40cm Lord of Cinder figurine.

Don't worry though, there is a standard Collector's Edition too for 499 UAE dirhams ($136 USD), which includes everything sans the figurine. Instead, a 25cm Red Knight figurine will take its place. Oddly enough, there is a release date for these editions: April 12, 2016. I wouldn't hold my breath, however, considering it hasn't been confirmed by Bandai Namco. Then again, it's the estimated release window we were given...

You can probably expect similar prices in the US and other countries, whenever these editions become available.

Owwie. Must be a hard day to be a hardcore fan of Dark Souls III, that's for sure.
