God of War Laufey's £130 Collector Box doesn't come with the game

God of War Laufey's Collector Box will cost £129.99 and will not include the game.

That's according to an update on the PlayStation Blog, which confirms the box, priced at $149.99 and €149.99, contains a light-up Faye statue, a 51-card Oracle Deck, and a mini artbook.

The eight-inch statue shows Faye, Phranque, and Rue taking on Begtse's soldiers, and "Phranque will light up when the statue is plugged into a USB power source" (thanks, ScreenRant).

The Oracle Deck has custom illustrations by Megan Lara on every card, and Sony describes it as "a beautiful representation of your adventure through the Everywhen". The mini artbook collects concept art of the game's characters, creatures, and environments, "hand-selected by our talented art team at Santa Monica Studio".

The box will be available in "highly limited quantities exclusively direct from PlayStation (where available)" on 16th February 2027, the same day God of War Laufey launches on PlayStation 5.

Pre-orders are now open "while supplies last".

This isn't the first collector's box to skip the game. Rockstar's £349.99 GTA 6 Collector's Box, due on 19th November, is merch only, for example, and Bungie has previously sold Destiny 2 collector's editions without the expansion code.

Last month, The Last of Us director Bruce Straley apologised to the God of War Laufey team at Sony Santa Monica for saying he was "not excited" about the upcoming game's gameplay.

In the interview, Straley said he'll "probably never" make the triple-A game he actually wants to because modern blockbusters are "boring", but later said his comment had been "used out of context and for clickbait".
