Bethesda Softworks has announced the Fallout: New Vegas collector’s edition for Xbox 360, PS3 and Games for Windows.

This premium version of Fallout: New Vegas includes a copy of the game and the items listed below:

– “Lucky 7” poker chips: Each of the seven poker chips was designed to represent chips from the major casinos found on the New Vegas strip and throughout the Mojave Wasteland.

– A fully customised Fallout: New Vegas deck of cards: Each card in the pack has been uniquely illustrated to depict characters and factions found within the game. Use the cards to play poker, blackjack or Caravan, an original card game that was created by Obsidian especially for Fallout: New Vegas!

– A recreation of the game’s highly coveted “Lucky 38” platinum chip

– A hardcover graphic novel, “All Roads”: Tells the story of some of the characters and events that lead up to Fallout: New Vegas. “All Roads” was written by Chris Avellone, the game’s creative director, and created in conjunction with Dark Horse Comics.

– ‘The Making of Fallout: New Vegas’ DVD: This documentary DVD will contain exclusive video content, including interviews with the developers in which they take you from concept to creation and discuss topics such as story, setting, legacy of the Fallout franchise and more.

“We’re offering this very cool collector’s edition to give fans the opportunity to own some of the items that they’ll discover while playing Fallout: New Vegas,” said Pete Hines, vice president of PR and marketing. “We are also expanding their experience with the game by including a top-notch graphic novel worthy of the Fallout name and a DVD that gives them a behind-the-scenes look at how the game was created.”
