Destiny has two limited editions, and one of them is so hard to find that retailers have had to cancel pre-orders. Destiny’s Ghost Edition has been really hard to buy almost since it was first announced, and we’ve heard rumblings that it is completely sold out in most territories. That’s certainly the case for Walmart, which has apparently had to cancel some preorders. According to a screenshot posted on NeoGAF, Walmart has emailed unlucky customers and offered them the Limited Edition instead, plus a $50 refund. The main difference between the Limited and Ghost editions is that the latter contains a talking plastic Ghost replica, a number of “relics” and a letter of introduction. Both editions boast fancy packing, a guide book, postcards and a star chart, as well as digital content such as bonus equipment and a season pass for two upcoming expansions. The Digital Guardian edition offers the digital content only, and is exclusive to downloadable copies of the game.
Wow. You would think that Bungie would have been prepared for this, and have made tons of copies of either edition.
I've read that Bungie wanted it to be so limited so that it would be more of a rarity for the extras.
