Game Groups > Games released as complementary versions

Games in this group consist of multiple versions of the same game that have been released alongside one another. While the underlying game is the same, the differing versions may explore the story from a slightly different angle, provide version-exclusive content, and (certainly not coincidentially) increase sales. It's not uncommon for such games to include multiplayer features with which exclusive content can be shared with players of the opposite version.

Games released in this fashion almost invariably come in pairs, though trio releases are not unheard of. It's sometimes the case that a third version is released later than the initial two.
