The collector’s edition is a download code

Sonic Mania was confirmed very early on for the PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One platforms, but it just had one holdup — a lack of a physical edition. Sure it had a special edition, a rad one in fact, but that comes with a download card.

We do have hope though, as a GameStop Italy posting showcases a very convincing physical version on the Switch, which we can only assume will head to other platforms. Still, the full game is only a week away so if it is confirmed, Sega just needs to share the news already!

Some have already theorized that Sega doesn’t want people to cancel their special editions, then eventually buy this, which would be disappointing if the listing ends up panning out. We’ve reached out to Sega for comment.
