What drives the price

Price fluctuations for this title are heavily influenced by condition and completeness. Listings show variations, such as Mint condition examples and those described as Like New, which can significantly impact the asking price [4]. The presence of specific packaging, such as the Steelbook, can affect valuation, as seen in current listings [4]. Generally, completeness—ensuring all components associated with the Ultimate Edition are present—is a key driver for higher-tier pricing.

Buying and selling it

When considering a purchase, comparing the current median asking price to the established sold-comp value is crucial. If the current asks are significantly higher than the sold comps, waiting may be advisable. For sellers, listing accurately regarding the condition (e.g., Brand New vs. Like New) is essential for attracting the right buyers.
