The Definitive Edition will include the content from its PlayStation 3 version along with both Japanese and English voice acting and will be released worldwide on January 11, 2019. The game will be available physically and digitally for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, and digitally-only for PC.
Wait, Europe pays less and gets a soundtrack?
Yeah, I agree… This makes no sense at all.
I noticed that and was confused. Weird.
Actually, the price is about the same (at least for the Switch version). The dollar and pound are not exactly equal to each other. That said, for 100 dollars vs. 75 pounds, the European collection is better stuff.

Not sure what you’re trying to say but, as a consumer, the fact that Bamco continues to offer different special editions for each region irks me.
