I guess I realized I’m a navy guy. I’ve always loved layers and I love it when the weather gets colder in New York so I can dig out my outerwear, but the recent spate of cold video game jackets has confirmed my weakness for good old-fashioned outerwear. I really want to Elysium Disco jacketfor example, and one of my favorite things in my closet is mine Destiny 2 rally jacket. I would commit a crime for one of them $1,700 Death Strike 2 jackets which apparently sold out within minutes and now it’s here Ring of Fire the jacket will come for me. No, no thatbut it’s still pretty cold.

Available exclusively on Bandai Namco StoreThis Ring of Fire The jacket is decorated with iconography depicting one of the coolest boss fights in the game against Maliketh, the Black Blade. The gigantic dog-like demon is one of the last fights players must fight to complete the game, and it’s suitably tough. There are no surprises there, considering this is the case supposed to store the Death Rune and embed it in his skin before you find him, but this is not the time or place for a gigantic lore drop.

The black and gold Sukajan jacket has lots of cute details that make it stand out. For example, both chest panels feature an embroidered design of Maliketh’s head, showing the armor covering his face, his snarling expression and acute teeth, and his long, ash-white mane. His head is surrounded on all sides by illustrations of clouds similar to those players could see Ring of Firein-game map. Additionally, flecks of gold appear to be scattered in the air around him, similar to the effect that can be observed the closer you get to Erdtree. Ring of Firea magnificent and gigantic landmark that towers over the Lands Between.

On the back of the jacket is an impressive full body portrait of Maliketh in full armor, standing and wielding his gnarled sword, with a menacing red aura emanating from both him and his weapon. It is surrounded by the same clouds and gold, and a section of text above and below the pattern identifies it and reads: “Fear before Mallketh, Black Blade of Marika.”

Unfortunately, this extremely cold statement is quite narrow. There are only 500 of them, so each copy sold will be packed in a premium box with a numbered certificate inside. For $200 this is not it the worst the price you can pay for luxury clothing, which means it can go down quite quickly. And no, you can’t buy more than one at a time, so it’s a one-time deal. Climb it and bear witness to Marika’s best soldier.
