Dragon Age The Veilguard keeps things simple for its pre-order choices. So, whether on PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X/S, you have two editions – Standard and Deluxe.
While the game does have a Collector’s Edition, it technically is aimed at PlayStation and Xbox players only. You’ll get the Collector’s Edition exclusively at Gamestop, which is priced at $219.99 for both PlayStation and Xbox.
If you’re on PC and are interested in the Rook’s Coffer edition, you’ll have to purchase it from the Official BioWare store.
However, this variant is priced at $149.99 but does not include the game. You will have to purchase that separately.
Which Dragon Age The Veilguard edition should you pre-order?
If you want to enjoy the adventure in Thedas and don’t care about how Rook looks or how the companion and their weapons look, get the standard edition. It is cheaper, comes with the base game, and you still get a special skin for your character.
However, if cosmetics and unique skins are something you prefer, and you want to fight the troubles of Thedas in style, then you should buy the Deluxe Edition.
