From the outside, the shipping packaging is a standard plain brown box, but Valve joked about the particular usual warnings on the side, urging customers to “not use the shipping box as an umbrella, smash [it] on the ground, or use [it] as a magnet. ” On the inside of the box, meanwhile, the design includes recommendations for where to play in multiple languages.
