Earlier this year, OlliOlli World was released on Switch and we loved it (heck, we even gave it 9/10 in our review). Combine this with our love of physical media and you would think that news of an OlliOlli World physical release would be enough to make our heart do a kickflip; except, the game’s ‘physical’ release is not all that it seems.
Today, Private Division and Roll7 announced that a physical version of the game will be released on October 28th, 2022. Only, this release will not contain a cartridge. Instead, the ‘physical copy’ will be an OlliOlli World box which contains a code for the game’s digital download – note the message in the bottom right corner of the box in the image above.
Perhaps better described as a boxed release [Nice – Ed.]the product will retail £16.49 (around 19$ / $19
We are big fans of physical media, but this seems like an expensive box.
What do you make of this code-in-a-box release? Skate down to the comments to let us know!
