Konami and Limited Run Games team up to provide a physical version of Castlevania Anniversary Collection for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.

Konami and Limited Run Games have teamed up to provide a physical version of Castlevania Anniversary Collection. Castlevania debuted in 1986 on the NES, and since then the series has become one that is close to the hearts of many. Now the Anniversary Collection version of Castlevania will soon be available physically as a collector's item.

The Castlevania Anniversary Collection has some of the best Castlevania games, including Castlevania, Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest, Castlevania 3: Dracula’s Curse, Super Castlevania 4, Castlevania The Adventure, Castlevania 2: Belmont's Revenge, Castlevania Bloodlines, and Kid Dracula. Limited Run Games is bringing that collection to Nintendo Switch and PS4 physically.

There will be four different versions of the collection available to be pre-ordered beginning on May 14, 2021, at 10 am ET. The Standard Edition costs $34.99 USD, the Classic Edition costs $59.99 USD, the Bloodlines Edition also costs $59.99, and the Ultimate Edition comes in at $174.99 USD.

The Standard Edition of Castlevania Anniversary Collection comes solely with the game. Meanwhile, the Classic Edition will include the original soundtrack on CD, a poster, and a retro-style sleeve and box. The Bloodlines Edition also comes with a CD soundtrack, but also a poster with art by and Tom duBois and a clamshell case.

The Ultimate Edition of Castlevania Anniversary Collection is pricey, but it is one of the more impressive collections that Limited Run Games has offered so far. The edition has much of what the Classic and Bloodlines versions have, but also a shadow box that lights up and makes noises, a SteelBook, a collection of mini replica boxes, and so much more. The PS4 and Nintendo Switch physical Limited Run Games pre-orders will be available for just a six-week period, so fans of the series should take advantage quickly if they are interested.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection is available now on Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
