The latest post-funding update for Divinity: Original Sin is full of good news, starting from the release of the Mac version of the turn-based RPG on Early Access. There's more though, as Larian also took the opportunity to announce the Collector's Edition of the title and give us a taste of the next update for the title's beta:
The Collector's Edition includes:
- Four Divinity titles (Two copies of D:OS on two DVDs; Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity for download)
- Zandalor's trunks & the Golden Grail DLC
- Maradino's Alchemical Cards for in-game crafting
- Cloth map of Andavale
- Collector's Edition Stickers
- Two-sided Poster
- Collector's Edition Soundtrack on CD-ROM
- Game Manual
- Zandalor's Deck of Playing Cards
- Bellegar's RPG dice
How do I get my hands on one of these?
The English edition is available worldwide exclusively through the Larian Vault.
IMPORTANT! There are only 1500 English versions of the Collector's Edition available; the rest is reserved for our Kickstarter backers. We aren't planning a re-print (the organisational acumen it takes confuses and frightens we developer-types), so get your loot while it's available.
A limited set of German, French & Polish editions will be available via retail.
In the Benelux, a limited amount of English editions can be found in Game Mania
No other editions are planned
