halo: master chief

In a surprise move GAME, the UK retailer that specialises in all things gaming, has revealed that Halo: The Master Chief Collection is getting a rather snazzy special edition. While Microsoft has yet to officially comment on the package, the fact that it is listed on GAME’s website and is available to pre-order suggests that this is the real deal. The Mjolnir Edition comes armed with a 12” Master Chief statue, with swappable arms allowing you to change the stance of the series’ protagonist. Also included in the collection is a steel book case for the game, a physical map book that contains images of every map featured in the title and the DLC Grunt Funeral Skull. It’s unknown what effect the skull will have in-game, but going on past examples in the series it’s likely to involve something hilarious happening to Grunts. Unfortunately, the price for the Mjolnir Edition version of the game clocks in at £169.99, roughly half the price of an Xbox One console. If you don’t
