Super Rare Games Limited is prominent for bringing digitally-released indie titles to physical media. They have published physical collector's editions for games such as Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, Mutant Mudds Collection, Joe Dever's Lone Wolf, Steredenn: Binary Stars, Earthlock, and Worms: W.M.D.
Operating within the
Joe & Mac and
Steamworld Dig franchises, the publisher focused on preserving these specific properties for collectors. The company's early catalog solidified the physical footprint of these franchises through highly limited Nintendo Switch releases.
In 2017, the publisher initiated this preservation effort with the physical releases of
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime (2017) and
Mutant Mudds Collection (2017). The momentum continued into 2018 with expanded distribution runs, including the 2018 editions of both
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime (2018) and
Mutant Mudds Collection (2018).
Further expanding the reach of the
Joe & Mac and
Steamworld Dig ecosystem, the publisher produced physical editions of
Joe Dever's Lone Wolf (2018),
Steredenn: Binary Stars (2018), and
Worms: W.M.D (2018). They also distributed the
Earthlock [Collector’s Edition] (2018). These releases typically featured exclusive cover art, trading cards, and detailed booklets, ensuring that these franchise-linked titles received archival-quality physical documentation.
