If you simply can’t get enough of Owlboy, the beautifully emotive retro-platformer from D-Pad Studios, you might be pleased to hear that the game is getting a deluxe physical edition. Competition will be fierce, however, as publisher Soedesco is only releasing 6,000 copies.


So far, we only know what the case looks like, thanks to a tweet from Soedesco. They’re promising more details on the deluxe edition in the coming days. If you want a physical copy of Owlboy, but won’t be able to by the fancy collector’s edition, the game is also getting a regular physical release, which you can pre-order right now on Amazon. This standard edition releases on May 29.

Owlboy launched on the Switch eShop last February, and the game’s received plenty of critical acclaim, not only for its sharp mechanics and battle system, but its impeccable storytelling and nuanced characters. It’s not just another retro-inspired indie game, but a classic well worth adding to your collection.
