88 The publisher framed the reduction as a permanent change made to bring the game to more players rather than a sale. See Platforms and Release for the platform and rating breakdown.

1010 The Early Adopter Sealing Stone
1111  
1212 Because the price cut leaves launch buyers having paid more, the publisher announced a permanent thank-you for them. Anyone who buys the game on PC or PlayStation 5 before 26 August 2026 receives an exclusive sealing stone, which unlocks a unique dungeon with a dedicated storyline, a boss fight and special loot. The item will not be distributed again after that date, and the publisher has said the details of how to claim it will be revealed later. Sealing stones as a general mechanic are covered on the Relics and Runes System page.

1414 The Night of the Unextinguished Flame
1515  
1616 This pack was the pre-order bonus and is now sold separately for $9.99 (US). It adds a self-contained dungeon with its own questline and a set of exclusive rewards, framed as a head start for a new Guardian.

1919 The gear carries the same story-bearing framing as the rest of the game's loot. The Unextinguished Vigil is described as the sword and shield a sentinel named Hervan refused to release on the night the mist was at its thickest, and the Sealstone of the Undying Ember as a faint light that endured within the cold mist. A sealstone is a kind of Relic tied to hidden dungeons, covered on the Relics and Runes System page.

2121 Reaching the DLC Quest
2222  
2323 The pack does not unlock at the start of the game. Its entry point sits out in the world, and players initially had trouble finding it; the publisher put out a short guide video showing the location. A later patch also moved the DLC so that it appears by the second fast travel point, making it easier to reach early. Owning the pack is enough to make the questline available once you get there.

2727 A boxed PlayStation 5 release arrives on 4 September 2026. It bundles a premium physical map of Arsilthus together with two bonus content packs: The Night of the Unextinguished Flame and a second pack, The Black Banquet, whose contents have not been detailed.

2929 A collector's edition branded the Forgotten Stories Edition has also been announced through select retailers. The components named so far are a collector's box and steelbook, a hardcover book covering characters, lore, and concept art, a collectible coin, a printed map of Arsilthus, and an exclusive in-game weapon set. Exact contents and pricing vary by retailer and region and are still being finalised, so this page lists the confirmed components without committing to a single bundle.
