SCEE has unveiled the God of War III Ultimate Trilogy Edition box set. The Ultimate Trilogy Edition can be pre-ordered in selected retailers across Europe, Australia and New Zealand, but in limited quantity.

In a tweet, Seybold said, “We haven’t announced the name of our Motion Controller. He referred to it as a rumored code name.”
