Square Enix releases an unboxing video for "Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT" Ultimate Collector's Edition, and it is every fan's ultimate dream.

Mat Kishimoto and Lowey Ding from Square Enix's marketing team hosted the unboxing, which had fans glued to the screen.

The much-anticipated Collector's Edition of the 30-year-old franchise features a number of highly coveted items.

First up is a steelbook case with the Warrior of Light in the front cover and Garland in the rear. All 14 weapons for the upcoming game are laid out inside.

The set comes with a Season Pass, which contains six unannounced characters, two skins, as well as two weapons per character. Three exclusive trading cards are also included in the box.

It sports 15 tracks taken from various "Final Fantasy" episodes. Among these are "Final Fantasy VII" opening theme "Bombing Mission" and "Stand Your Ground" from "Final Fantasy XV." All tracks are re-arranged so it would be a bit different from what players are used to hearing in the games.

An 84-page hardcover artwork book features characters and other content, arranged in order of appearance in the franchise, from the first installment all the way to the 15<sup>th -- a great throwback for everyone wondering how the original characters looked like when they first came out. Kishimoto teased a special note at the end, which players should be able to read only if they get a copy.

The highlight is an 8.25-inch figure of Warrior of Light, who was chosen for seniority. He was the first "Final Fantasy" hero and legend after all. There is nothing much to do with it apart from display though, as it is basically just a statue. Still, the intricate details are impeccable, and should attract die-hard fans.

Everything put together, the "Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT" Ultimate Collector's Edition is worth $189.99. Cheaper editions of the game are also available. Fans can pre-order as early as now.

The upcoming game is currently at an open beta, from Jan. 12 to 21. "Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT" launches on Jan. 30, exclusively for PlayStation 4.
