Choosing among collector limited editions isn't just about price-it's about what kind of collectible you actually want to display and play. Are you after a physical Switch game that doubles as a tabletop board game, a mature horror artcade edition, a low-priced retro tie-in with an in-hand listing, or a high-priced PS5 pre-order? The four sets here span a wide price range, so your decision between Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 will narrow the field as much as your genre taste.
Quick Take
If you want the lowest listed price and an item described as 'In Hand,' the Jaws Retro Edition leads on immediate availability. If you want a hybrid tabletop and video-game package, the Eastward Collector's Home Edition is the crossover choice. Terrifier brings a mature artcade style to Switch, while the Halloween Limited Collector's Edition is the PS5 pre-order at the far end of the price range.

Product Notes
Eastward Collector's Home Edition
If you want a single box that covers both tabletop and video play, this edition is built for you. It pairs the physical Switch game cartridge and case with an Eastward board game designed by Erich Meyer for 2-4 players. The board game ships with a foldout board, 15 ingredient cards, 10 item cards, 8 miasma cards, 4 character standees, and an instruction pamphlet. It's limited to 3,000 copies, so the collectible ceiling is part of the appeal. You can also combine the board game components with the Eastward Vinyl Soundtrack as an expansion if you already own that soundtrack. The main limitation is the genre: it's listed as Board Games, so the tabletop element is the centerpiece rather than a pure cartridge-only release.
Terrifier The Artcade Game Limited Edition
The Switch gets a mature horror-arcade twist with this entry, which is labeled an ARTcade Game Limited Edition. It carries an M rating and falls under Action & Adventure, so it's aimed at older players who want an arcade-style identity rather than a survival-horror sim. The set is listed as a Collector's Edition from Selecta Play, and the title leans into the limited edition naming. For a collector who is a fan of the Terrifier franchise, this is the only artcade-style option in the group. The trade-off is that the edition label is the main differentiator, and because it's a Switch-specific release, it won't be part of a PS5 collection. Its mature rating also makes it less suited for younger players.
Jaws Retro Edition
At $58.89, this is the lowest listed price in the comparison, and the title describes it as 'In Hand,' which is a useful signal for a collector who wants a Switch retro edition without waiting for a future drop. It's connected to the 2026 SDCC event and the Jaws franchise, giving it a specific pop-culture identity. The genre field lists Jaws rather than a standard genre, so the set is more of a franchise celebration than a typical retro game. The limitation is that the 'Retro Edition' label is closely tied to that Jaws branding, so it's best for collectors who specifically want a Jaws-themed Switch piece rather than a genre-driven game.
Halloween Limited Collector's Edition
The only PlayStation 5 entry in this group is a survival-horror set tied to the Halloween video game series. The title explicitly says 'Pre-sale Pre-Order,' so it's a forward-looking collector's purchase rather than an in-hand item. The rating is listed as RP (Rating Pending), which means the final age classification hasn't been published yet. The positive is that it offers PS5 collectors a way to reserve a limited edition for a revered horror franchise before it arrives. The trade-off is that reserving comes before the final rating is set, and the set is positioned as a pre-order rather than something immediately available.
Final Recommendation
- If you want the lowest listed price and an in-hand Switch retro edition, choose the Jaws Retro Edition.
- If you want a board-game-plus-Switch-game hybrid with a published 3,000-copy limit, choose the Eastward Collector's Home Edition.
- If you're after a mature-rated artcade horror style on Switch, choose the Terrifier The Artcade Game Limited Edition.
- If you're planning a PS5 survival-horror collection and are comfortable with a pre-order, the Halloween Limited Collector's Edition is the highest-priced option.
