Editions and Pre-Order Bonus
August 6, 2026 at 10:27 PM
Updated for release: the bonus pack is now a paid $9.99 add-on with its contents published in full, added the second physical-edition pack The Black Banquet, and noted how the DLC quest is reached in game
The Relic: First Guardian is a paid title sold digitally on PC and PlayStation 5 for $49.99 (US). A physical PlayStation 5 release follows on 4 September 2026. One add-on pack is available, and it was given free to anyone who pre-ordered.
The standard edition costs $49.99 (US) on both platforms and contains the full game. There is no separate deluxe digital edition. See Platforms and Release for the platform and rating breakdown.
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.
Content | Detail |
|---|---|
Dungeon | Sanctuary of the Forgotten Light, a unique dungeon reached through its own questline |
Relic (Sealstone) | Sealstone of the Undying Ember |

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.
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.
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.
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.
