Default 3 Variants of No Man's Sky steelbook

This is a little worrying...well for me! I've spotted 3 different steelbooks for No Man's Sky;

Steelbook 1 (UK) - note the border round the front and the white text;




Steelbook 2 (USv1) - note no border and the text indented;




Steelbook 3 (USv2) - note no border and white text;

I believe the second pic (US v1) is the same as the third pic. The text looks different because of the lighting

I don't think so, there are other pictures and it looks like white test...I'll try find them

actually, look again - the light and dark patches (the design) are reversed - it's definitely 2 different designs (for US)!

actually, the design 'flips' depending on angle/light etc and as you say the text looks white but can be indented. I've watch a few unboxings now and I'm still unsure, this is a US one and it clearly looks like the PS4 logo is white and flat vs the picture above which looks indented - @ 3:40ish you get a fairly good view;

EU version front text indented so may the the lighting in pic 1 (shame about the border though);

In my opinion it's not worth to pay extra money for these Steelbooks, there is not so big difference between them.

What's the name of the edition of which the second or third steelbook is part of?

Okay thank you for your answer.

So that means that one of those two steelbooks is either part of the european or part of the north american limited edition.

Yeah.

I had the US Steelbook with white text from the pics, and bought one with reversed color from eBay, and they look exactly the same. They looked different in the pics because of the lighting.
