As well as an exclusive edition from iam8bitOne of the most intriguing games of the summer is an adventure starring a cat ? being, well, a cat ? in a human-less city. Stray (https://www.destructoid.com/stray-release-date-reveal-trailer-pc-ps4-ps5-july/) releases digitally for PS4, PS5, and PC on July 19, but if you're looking to pick up a physical copy, that's coming later. You've got two options.
The most basic physical edition of Stray on PS4/PS5 is due on September 20, for $40, and there's also an iam8bit exclusive edition for $45 that's shipping in Q4 2022.
According to iam8bit, pre-orders for the standard retail edition of Stray will "start to open up this week (https://twitter.com/iam8bit/status/1546888066182352897)," so keep an eye on your preferred retailer. The exclusive edition, however, is up for grabs today (https://www.iam8bit.com/products/stray-playstation) with no deadline to worry about yet ? it's an "open pre-order."
Here's what comes in the (slightly pricier) box:

Stray's exclusive edition has a matte black sleeve, a 14.4" x 24" poster featuring our inquisitive hero, a "fuzzy, pettable" chenille patch, and six art cards.
Something else to keep in mind: digital copies will normally cost $30 (though there's currently a 10 percent off discount on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1332010/Stray/)), and Stray will also be playable at no extra cost on PS4/PS5 if you're subscribed to PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium (https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/stray/).
I'm glad the wait isn't too long for the physical version, as that can be a frequent concern. Best case, maybe you can check out the game with PS Plus Extra to see if it's worth adding to your shelf, without needing to fully double-dip (or wait until September).
Annapurna Interactive and BlueTwelve Studio recently posted a "spoiler-free introduction to Stray (https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/stray/a-spoiler-free-introduction-to-stray/)," if you're curious to see a bit more about the game and its world. This knocking-stuff-over tweet is also another biggie ? I feel like it sums up the game's whole vibe.
