The next entry in the long-running Dragon Age franchise, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, launches worldwide for PC and consoles on October 31. This marks BioWare's first major release since Anthem in 2019, which left many fans disappointed.
As with most modern games, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will be available in multiple editions. If you’re curious about what each edition includes and which one might be the best fit for you, you’re in the right place.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard Release Time & Date
There's not long left to wait before Dragon Age fans finally get their hands on the latest game, Veilguard.
What’s Included in the Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age: The Veilguard?
Dragon Age: The Veilguard comes in two editions: Standard and Deluxe. The former offers exactly what you'd expect — just the base game, nothing more, nothing less. However, for fans wanting a little extra, the Deluxe Edition provides additional content.
Deluxe Edition Content
The Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age: The Veilguard is suitable for players who either suffer from FOMO or like to bling up their characters with unique flair. Priced at $79.99 for PC and $89.99 for consoles, it includes more content than the Standard Edition. Deluxe Edition owners will receive the following items:
- Base Game

- 1 Mage Armor Set Appearance for Rook (cosmetic only)
- 1 Rogue Armor Set Appearance for Rook (cosmetic only)
- 6 Weapon Appearances for Rook (cosmetic only)

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Details Accessibility Features
Dragon Age: The Veilguard reveals 55 different accessibility options for its gameplay, controls, video, and audio elements and features.
Pre-Order Bonus
Players who purchase either edition of the game before the release date will receive additional items. These rewards are purely cosmetic, so don’t worry if you miss the deadline — they won’t affect gameplay. Pre-order bonuses include the following items:

Is the Deluxe Edition Worth It?
Whether the Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age: The Veilguard is worth it depends entirely on the kind of player you are. If you don’t care much for cosmetic items or aren’t impressed by the Deluxe Edition’s exclusive content, saving the extra $20 might be the better choice. However, if you’re a dedicated Dragon Age or BioWare fan who wants access to all available content, those additional items might make the Deluxe Edition worth considering.
For most players, the Standard Edition is recommended, as the cosmetic items in the Deluxe Edition are nothing to write home about, and they provide no gameplay advantages.
