RE9 Full Deluxe Edition Revealed

Now that Leon has been revealed we get to see the full Deluxe Edition:

Wanted a CE but I’m sure the tariffs cooked that this time, but the Deluxe will more than suffice. Loving everything about it value wise.
 
"Audio Pack" has me curious, considering this isn't a remake. I guess it's like the audio swap in Village with the safe rooms.

That revolver might also be the sickest looking gun in the entire franchise now. I love everything about how it looks.

No classic Alyssa costume for Grace is a missed opportunity...
 
Already have this preordered but RE4 outfit for Leon and Lady D outfit for Grace along with classic would've sold me if I was on the fence. Whats the second outfit for Grace supposed to be?
 
It's just the "Noir" costume the same as Leon's suit and tie.
Yeah, I think they missed with Grace, the Lady D hype train is a bit forced and I'd have loved to see Alyssa's iconic costume. Perhaps in-game unlockables though, which I'd appreciate more in a sense anyway.

So it's: Infinite Darkness, RE:4, ???, Village, ???. Leon's third made me think Operation Javier in a more fashionable less militant style for a quick second lol.
 
Just realized the Japanese version comes with an acrylic:

I wish there was more of a consistent style for the game artwork. I like the text being the same as RE1 after so long but from the director's cut on they should have stayed with zombie or creature art. Or stayed with the RE2 spooky zombie image (US And EU). The nuked RPD is classy but even that's missing outside the Japanese cover.

While I agree with the zombie theme, I love how now the cover colors tones looks very similar to Umbrella logo and I'm all for it, the contrast between red text and white background paired with the grittier tones for RPD or Leon, idk, feels on point to me
 
The description of the Audio Pack on the store is:
- Audio Pack: Raccoon City Classic

No doubt this will be similar to the soundtrack swap in RE2R and RE4R, which used the original classic music in the remake for that extra hit of nostalgia. I was very thankful that someone recommended it for my first playthrough of RE2R. Entering the RPD main hall and hearing that iconic music was incredible and felt so different when I compared it later to the modern ambience they replaced it with.

So when we go back to these classic locations in Racoon City, let me recommend the Audio Pack, which just like the soundtrack swap should be available as a separate DLC at launch, or if you bought the Deluxe Edition it's included. I think for those of us who have been fans of the classic games for many years this will really add something to the experience just like it did for me in the remakes, particularly when going back to the RPD.
