GTA IV Special Edition pictured

Embattled developer and publisher Rockstar has revealed the first snaps of its upcoming Grand Theft Auto IV Special Edition bundle that is scheduled to hit shops alongside the standard version of the game on Xbox 360 and PS3 on October 19th.

Alongside the game buyers will also get a safety deposit box complete with Rockstar keyring, a soundtrack CD featuring a selection of numbers from the game, an ‘Art of GTA IV’ book and themed bag.

Though no UK price has yet been announced, North America will see a mark-up of $30 compared to the usual price, so expect a price tag of between £50-£60.

In addition, Rockstar’s long-promised new trailer for the game is due to hit the internet tomorrow night. For more details visit Rockstar's official GTA IV site.
