Harry November 2, 2024

Wired Productions and developer Just Add Water are the creators of groundbreaking VR games, Digging VRIt does have a Collector’s Edition available for pre-order, but this isn’t just any Collector’s Edition you’ll find in stores or on Amazon, this is the most expensive Collector’s Edition in the world, costing half a million pounds.

This is the Collector’s Edition to surpass them all, and it looks like it will appeal to those who love the idea of the game so much that they want to start their own company and bring the game fully to life. It can only be purchased from the Wired Productions website and is unlikely to appear at CEX at a later date.

The contents of this ridiculously extravagant edition include:
