Is Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions Deluxe Edition worth it?

With the launch of Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions only a month away, we get a look at what the Deluxe Edition has to offer. As with many other modern game releases, it primarily features a bunch of extra goodies to justify the higher price tag - including cosmetics and in-game currency. But is this something most fans would want to get their hands on?

Let's take a look at everything in Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions Deluxe Edition and see if it is worth getting ahead of its launch next month.

What is included in Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions Deluxe Edition?

While the base game does not have any bundled goodies, here's everything included in the Deluxe Edition:

• The Gryffindor House Pack
• Gryffindor Stormrider Firestorm Broom Skin
• Gryffindor Hogwarts Travel School Uniform
• Gryffindor House Crest Emblem
• The Hufflepuff House Pack
• Hufflepuff Stormrider Sandstorm Broom Skin
• Hufflepuff Hogwarts Travel School Uniform
• Hufflepuff House Crest Emblem
• The Ravenclaw House Pack
• Ravenclaw Stormrider Cyclone Broom Skin
• Ravenclaw Hogwarts Travel School Uniform
• Ravenclaw House Crest Emblem
• The Slytherin House Pack
• Slytherin Stormrider Hurricane Broom Skin
• Slytherin Hogwarts Travel School Uniform
• Slytherin House Crest Emblem
• 2,000 Gold

Each of the various House Packs is a bunch of cosmetics that can be applied to the custom avatar based on their House. Since the game takes place in the Wizarding World's Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, players will be put into one of four different Houses. Depending on their house, players will be able to use the associated cosmetics on their custom avatar.

Gold will allow players to purchase in-game items. More Gold will be obtainable via in-game progression and cannot be bought using real money. So as a whole, Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions Deluxe Edition is primarily aimed at ardent fans of the Wizarding World. As such, casual fans may want to stick to the base edition.

Then again, the Standard Edition costs $30 and the Deluxe Edition is only an extra $10 for a total cost of $40. So if fans want to support the developer or the series, the Deluxe Edition seems like a fair purchase. That said, regardless of the edition players buy, pre-ordering the game will net them the Firebolt Supreme Broom Skin.
