As detailed in a blog post, the standard edition of the game (i.e. the version without any frills) will cost $69.99/£69.99 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, and $59.99/ on PC £49.99. If you pre-order this version or the more expensive Deluxe Edition, you’ll get a decorative Blood Dragon armor set.
What are the extras in the Deluxe Edition, which costs $89.99/£89.99 on console and $79.99/£69.99 on PC? Well, there are (gasp) three sets of Rook armor, six sets of Rook weapons, seven sets of companion armor, and seven companion weapons.
But – in the words of one salesman – wait, there’s more. Enter the “Rook’s Coffer” version, which comes with a map of Thedas, a deck of cards, some photos of companions, a potion bottle model, and a die that the post says is enchanted. Oh, and there’s also a model of a lyrium dagger that looks so light and lights up in a similar way to the Star Wars lightsabers we had as kids. puff! But truth be told, EA/Bioware insists it’s a “decorative replica, not a toy.” oh.

This version costs $150/$117.98 but doesn’t come with the actual game. Neither does the “Vyrantium Pack,” which you’ll have to check for availability in case it’s not available in your area, and comes with a game-free steel case, metal print, notebook, and collectible outer box to keep it all.
Oh, and there’s an artbook for the game, which doesn’t come with the game either, and comes in three editions of its own – the standard edition for $49.99, the deluxe edition for $99.99, and the Bioware gear exclusive edition for $55.00.
