Unboxing [UK]: Senran Kagura Estival Versus - Standard Edition (PS4) [NSFW]

So if you remember back in May I ordered and received Senran Kagura Estival Versus (which you can check out an unboxing for right here). The issue here was that I ended up receiving the PlayStation Vita version. I kept the game since it would be so much hassle sending it all the way back to Canada and waited for the UK PS4 version to go at a good price. And here it is.

I'm also tagging the not safe for work note due to the reversible cover. Life and Hometown to the max.

The DVD version of this collector's edition is exactly the same, but I have the Blu-ray so here it is.
