Through the PS3's lifecycle, some games would receive a major reprint that changed the artwork. In 2009, Sony rebranded the PlayStation 3 with the launch of their slim console redesign. This console revision also brought a change to the look and style of the PS3 artwork. The old style (used from launch in 2006 until the end of 2009) has the "PlayStation 3" text on the left side of the artwork on the front. The new redesign moved that text to the top banner, reading as "PS3" now. The spine also changed from a small red PS3 box to a larger PS3 rectangle. With this change, a few games received a reprint to update the artwork from the old style to the new style. First party titles published by Sony also received a reprint to the game disc, updating that style as well. Third party titles used old stock of their game discs, leading to a new style artwork, with an old style disc.
Nordic Games Reprints
The Nordic Games Reprints occurred when Nordic Games acquired THQ in 2013. Some games originally published by THQ received a reprint run by Nordic Games Publishing beginning in 2013, reprinting the artwork, manual, and the game disc to have the Nordic Games branding on the packaging. 2K Games acquired the WWE franchise from THQ and reprinted WWE '13, their most recent entry into the WWE franchise.
Updated Artwork Reprints
Other Reprints
The "Other" Reprints consist of reprinted games by other publishers, updates to the game artwork now displaying PlayStation Move compatibility, or notable reprints, such as the NBA 2K11 3D Reprint (which comes with a lenticular slipcover).
