Darwin’s Paradox! Collector’s Edition is the premium physical release for the upcoming cinematic puzzle-platformer adventure game Darwin’s Paradox! from Konami (developed by ZDT Studio).
Â
This charming title stars Darwin, a clever little octopus yanked from the ocean and thrown into a massive, mysterious industrial complex filled with environmental puzzles, strange sea creatures, aliens, and a high-stakes story about saving (or dooming?) humanity. It has a vibrant, animated-movie vibe with puzzle-platforming gameplay, and it’s coming to Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (and PC digitally) on April 2, 2026.
Â
Here’s what’s included in the Collector’s Edition:
- Full game (physical copy)
- UFOOD Slipcover
- Original CD Soundtrack
- Lithograph (art print)
- Darwin Figure (collectible octopus statue)
- Engraved Wooden Pin
- Individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity
For comparison, the Standard Edition (~$49.99–$50) includes just the game plus a mini art book.
Â
The Collector’s Edition (priced at $124.99) is a limited-run physical version handled by Limited Run Games. Pre-orders opened recently (February 13, 2026) and close on March 15, 2026, at 11:59 PM Eastern Time. It’s region-free and available for all listed platforms.
Â
If you’re into indie-style platformers with heart (reminiscent of games like Octodad but with more cinematic flair), this Collector’s Edition looks like a standout for fans.
You can check it out and pre-order directly on the Limited Run Games site: limitedrungames.com (search for Darwin’s Paradox).
A demo is already available with an exclusive “Snake” skin, and pre-order bonuses include “Psyched” and “Dotted” skins. Excited for this one?
