BioWare offers two editions of Dragon Age The Veilguard: Standard ($69.99) and Deluxe ($79.99). We recommend going for the Standard edition for a few key reasons:

  • The Deluxe edition only comes with cosmetic items. The story experience remains the same for both editions, with the standard one costing 10 dollars less.
  • There is no Season Pass that will give you future expansions if BioWare has plans for any.

The Standard edition comes with only the base game experience, while the Deluxe one contains the following items:

  • Base Game
  • 6 Weapon Cosmetic Items for Rook
  • 1 Warrior Armor Cosmetic Items for Rook
  • 1 Mage Armor Cosmetic Items for Rook
  • 1 Rogue Armor Set Cosmetic Items for Rook
  • 7 Weapon & 7 Armor Set Cosmetic Items for Companions

These items will only provide cosmetic alterations to your existing gears and will not affect your weapon or armor stats. Paying an extra 10 dollars for skins is not worth it, in my opinion.

Having said that, which edition you buy is ultimately up to you. If you really like the cosmetic items on offer, you can opt to buy the Deluxe version. However, if you want to experience only the base game and do not care about anything else, the Standard edition is your best bet.


Does Dragon Age The Veilguard have a preload?

BioWare gives players the option to preload its RPG ahead of its official release on October 31, 2024. However, it is only limited to certain platforms.

The feature has been live on the Xbox platform since October 14, 2024, with the PlayStation set to receive it on October 29, 2024.

There is no way to preload Dragon Age The Veilguard on PC. The option to download the game will go live on October 31,2024, when the game launches across all platforms.
