Dragon Age: The Veilguard has a $150 'edition' that doesn't actually include the game, though you do get 22 inches of Rook's shiny blade

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is, regardless of what you think, bound to be one of the most interesting games this year when it comes to how it's received—starting with a trailer few liked, a gameplay demo folks were sort of okay with, and a second, cooler trailer people have liked a bit more. «Divisive» seems to be the word of the hour.

It's continuing in that mixed-feeling fashion by offering a $150 edition that doesn't include the actual game—as well as an art book (with three separate sub-editions) that doesn't include the actual game, plus a seemingly unpriced «Vyrantium Pack» which—you guessed it, doesn't include the actual game.

Meaning it's possible to spend—taking the most expensive version of the art book into account—$250 on Dragon Age: The Veilguard before actually buying the dang thing. And that's without taking into account the mystery Vyrantium Pack, which will (for an undisclosed amount) let you feel
