The Battle for Middle-earth II: Collector's Edition

The Battle for Middle-earth II: Collector's Edition is a special edition of The Battle for Middle-earth II that was made available in 2006. It has no major additions to gameplay, but contains bonus material as well as a documentary on the game's creation.

Unlike the Expansion pack that was released later in the year, the Collector's Edition does not require the normal BFME 2 to be already installed, since it includes the game itself.
