Retail Special Edition Of Gone Home Now Available In SNES-Themed Box
The formerly download-only Gone Home is now available in retail form with some added goodies.
The special edition of the game is $29.99 and you can order the North America version of the game here, and the European version of the game here. Included in the bundle is the game on a disc, as well as a download code redeemable on Steam. You will also find the game's soundtrack and all of its audio diaries in mp3 form, a special poster featured in the game, a sticker, a 40-page designer's notebook, and a special Lisa Frank inspired DVD case to hold the game, all packaged in box that has been mocked up to look like a Super Nintendo version of Gone Home.

Our Take
I'm still a sucker for boxed games, and the fact that it comes in a faux-SNES box makes it even harder to ignore. It's too bad this version of the game didn't launch alongside the game when it released last August.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
