You can find all the information about all of the physical and digital versions of Need for Speed Unbound, as well as preorder bonuses, below:

Need for Speed Unbound Collector’s Edition

We haven’t had a physical collector’s edition for a Need for Speed title in a long time, but that changes with Unbound. The Collector’s Edition, named “Creative Subversion Kit”, is complete chaos with an over-the-top art style, and comes with:

• PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S version of the game – No Collector’s Edition for PC, and no last-gen version at all.
• Collector’s Box – NFS ya all!
• Steelbook case – Do not ignore it.
• Need For Speed Unbound Ski Mask – Totally not for committing street racing-related crimes.
• 3 Colored Markers – For doing “street art”, just try to not get caught.
• 5 Vinyl Stickers – Ideal for your Honda.
• 24 Hello Stickers – Ideal for your fridge.

There are some digital bonuses that come with the pre-order of Need for Speed Unbounded Collector’s Edition:
