Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will be arriving in stores next month in both standard trim and a Limited Edition. In anticipation of the release I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the Limited Collector’s Edition of the first Rainbow Six Vegas to get an idea of what the new release might be like.
As you can see from the pictures the Limited Collector’s Edition was fairly standard fare with a standard 2 disc snap case inside a cardboard slip cover. What was nice was that the slip cover had a shiny reflective finish over it and the package also included a 48 hour Xbox Live trial card with the game art on it.
The bonus disc had a lot of nice behind the scenes content but it was unfortunately in a DVD Movie format which means two things: 1. 480p resolutions on all the videos which really diminishes the presentation quality and 2. no chance for bonus in game content or other things like gamer pictures or dashboard themes. The one thing Ubisoft did do right was make this version of the game actually limited in production. It’s quite a difficult edition to find and beyond what’s included that’s what really makes releases like this special.
Here’s hoping that for R6V2 we’ll get a steelbook case and a 2nd game disc with bonus content as opposed to just a DVD movie.

Information has popped up on Amazon.com as well as Gamestop.com about a Limited Edition release of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. This NTSC release is poised to include:
- Collectible Poker Chip Key Chain
- Limited Edition Bonus Disk including:
- Strategy Video with tips and secrets from the developers, pro gamers, and the Frag Dolls
- Pro Gamer Interview: a look at the life of a pro gamer with MLG player FinestX
- MLG Pro Circuit ’07 Season Highlights
- A “Sneak Peek” look at Tom Clancy’s EndWar – a video featuring a hands on look at this new Tom Clancy game franchise with the Frag Dolls.
- Limited edition case design
Both Amazon and Gamestop have different cover art and it’s unknown which (if any) are the final box art. Though, my money is on the Amazon art (right).
Pre-orders though EB and Gamestop will also receive a code to unlock the Comcast Optimized MLG map. It’s unclear if this will be a game code to unlock the map, or a one time use Xbox Live style content code.
The case material is also unknown though if past Tom Clancy/Ubisoft LE releases this generation are any indication it will be nothing more than a standard case with an extra disc flap and either a plastic or cardboard slip cover. The game Is scheduled for release on March 18, 2008 with an MSRP of $69.99 (USD). No word yet on whether or not PAL regions will be getting an LE of this game.
