These games are often sold as Collector’s Editions, which include extras like pins, posters, and OST CDs. In addition to indie titles, they also re-release some major hits. Since the games are usually available for a limited time and once they sell out, they’re rarely reprinted, finding these rare editions can be quite the challenge—and expensive! In this list, we’ll be listing the rarest Limited Run Games titles and their prices.

All values are based on PriceCharting's complete price at the time of writing. However, for price comparisons, the new prices have been used.

The Monkey Island anthology is older than most of us, originally launched in 1990 by Lucasfilm Games. It follows the hilarious and adventurous journey of Guybrush Threepwood, a wannabe pirate trying to make it big in the Caribbean.

The Monkey Island 30th Anniversary Anthology includes the first five games in the series, packed into a fancy USB and a classic 4-disc DVD set. But the real treasure? A resin statue of Guybrush and a Murray candle holder—because who doesn't want a sarcastic talking skull on their shelf? Originally priced at $175, this collector's gem now sells for at least $400—if you can even find one!

Grounded takes the classic “shrinking” theme and turns it into a fun yet slightly terrifying backyard survival adventure. You may be tiny in-game—dodging ants, hiding from spiders, and building shelters out of grass—but there’s nothing small about the Collector’s Edition.

Along with a physical copy of the game and the soundtrack CD, you get a full D20 dice set, cool mant minis, and even Hoops sweatbands for that retro vibe. One of the quirkiest features? A display frame where you can slot in any of the ten included art cards—because even when you’re insect-sized, style matters!

Considered a turning point in the Persona series, this game drops high school students into a world where everyday life meets supernatural chaos. You play as an unnamed transfer student at Gekkoukan High, where the mysterious “Dark Hour” becomes a major plot hook—because who doesn’t love an extra, cursed hour between midnight and tomorrow?

The S.E.E.S. Edition includes the coolest replica ever: a life-sized Evoker, the iconic not-a-gun used to summon Personas. It also comes with character trading cards, a school patch, and the S.E.E.S. armband. Just don’t forget—it’s the Portable version: no anime cutscenes, no 3D roaming, and sadly, no The Answer.

The third entry in the series, Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse, follows the half-genie hero as she loses her magical powers and is forced into an awkward alliance with her archenemy, Risky Boots. Armed with pirate gear instead of magic, she sets off to stop the resurrecting evil known as the Pirate Master.

You’ll explore cursed islands, collect new weapons, and save the day—pirate-style! As for the Collector’s Edition… well, let’s just say it’s not exactly overflowing with treasure. You get a soundtrack CD, a reversible poster, and a non-functioning replica cartridge. Still, the Nintendo Switch version is surprisingly expensive, thanks to its low print run and high demand.

Released in 2008 for the PlayStation 2, Persona 4 is a supernatural detective story packed with creepy murders, mysterious fog, and high school drama—all the good stuff. The story kicks off when the main character moves to the rural town of Inaba, where dead bodies start showing up after foggy nights. Totally normal.

Soon, the gang discovers a bizarre world inside TV screens (yes, inside the TVs) where people confront their repressed inner selves—because therapy is too mainstream. This edition’s best goodies? Yu Narukami’s iconic glasses, a premium card set, and a glorious metal Teddie statue. Plus, the lenticular Midnight Box? So extra. And so worth it.

Among the most beloved horror games, Outlast nails the helplessness mechanic like no other. Your only "weapon"? A night vision camera—because nothing screams “comfort” like grainy green terror. That eerie glow just cranks the creep factor to eleven. The game became a viral sensation thanks to terrified streamers screaming their lungs out.

This edition includes both Outlast: Bundle of Terror (the original game plus the Whistleblower DLC) and Outlast 2, which features completely new characters and a fresh, equally horrifying setting. You also get cool extras like The Murkoff Account comic, dossier case files, and a briefcase so thematically intense, it might just be hiding a few secrets of its own.

Blasphemous is a metroidvania-style action platformer that serves up a gothic fever dream soaked in dark religious imagery, grotesque pixel art, and a punishing, Souls-like vibe. Set in a decaying, faith-drenched land, you play as the silent warrior known only as The Penitent One—because apparently, suffering builds character.

The Collector’s Edition of this game is no joke in terms of price. But to be fair, it comes with some divine goodies: the iconic Mea Culpa sword replica, the original soundtrack, a metal pin, and a reversible poster. It’s the kind of edition that makes your wallet cry out louder than the sinners of Cvstodia.

Command & Conquer Remastered Collection brings back two RTS legends: Tiberian Dawn (1995) and Red Alert (1996)—now in glorious 4K with over 100 campaign missions and that classic “gather, build, destroy” formula. The 25th Anniversary Edition? Oh, it’s stacked.

We're talking metal replicas of a Mammoth Tank, a Tesla Coil, and an Obelisk—basically, your desk becomes a war zone. There’s also a Tiberium Crystal-shaped USB loaded with 119 original soundtracks, faction enamel pins, a reversible beanie (for strategic warmth), tech trees, patches, and a 100+ page art book. Whether it’s worth the price? Debatable. But that collector shelf flex? Absolutely unquestionable.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the direct sequel to Fallen Order, takes place five years later with intense action and rich Star Wars storytelling. The protagonist, Cal Kestis, is one of the last remaining Jedi—now more mature, powerful, and exhausted. As the Galactic Empire’s pressure mounts, Cal fights to survive and protect the galaxy.

The Collector’s Edition is pretty pricey, and the biggest reason is the full-sized, functional replica of Cal Kestis' Lightsaber. If you're a Star Wars fan and a collector who wants both the game and a legit lightsaber, it might be worth the cost. But let's be honest—its launch price of $300 and the current price will probably leave your wallet in a galaxy far, far away.

Based on Harlan Ellison’s short story, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream is an interactive narrative game set in a dystopian future where humanity is nearly wiped out. The main antagonist, AM, is a massive AI hell-bent on eradicating the remnants of mankind. The game is told through the eyes of five survivors captured by AM.

This edition comes from leftover stock from 1995 and includes goodies like a mousepad, an abomination statue, and a lithograph. Only 100 copies were made for the PC version and 340 for Mac. It sold out fast, and since it's not easy to find, the price has shot up—originally $200, now worth enough to make your wallet scream.
