The database currently catalogues 3 PAL variants, all Original release types sharing the same serial. Distribution covered the UK, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain, with three regionally grouped pressings. All variants are housed in Full Jewel PAL cases with no hologram, and all are single-disc English-only releases. No loose paperwork or bundled demo discs are documented. The three variants are differentiated by their territorial groupings and EAN barcodes: a UK, France, Germany pressing; a Central European pressing for France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands; and a Southern European pressing for Spain, Greece, and Portugal. The inclusion of Greece and Portugal in the Southern European variant is of note to collectors tracking less common PAL territories.
