Official Book and Original Soundtrack

The Deluxe Edition features an Official Book and the game’s Original Soundtrack, both of which can be accessed in-game. The book depicts various illustrations covering major events in the game and also expands upon the franchise’s lore with new character briefs. Some charts depict the various relationships the prominent characters share. The Original Soundtrack features all the tracks that have been made for the game.

Letters and Items 

The Deluxe Edition also includes Letters that will help you obtain gold that you can later use for purchasing items and weapons. If you own the Deluxe Edition, simply head to any of the Inns in the game to retrieve your letter and use it. Keep in mind that these Letters will only be available after a certain point in the story.

Is the Deluxe Edition Worth It?

As we stated earlier, the Deluxe Edition is worth it, but only for hardcore fans of the series. The Official Book and the Original Soundtrack are the main selling points of this edition. The book explores the various important figures and relationships that span the events of the Three Kingdoms saga, and it is worthwhile for fans who have closely followed the lore of the franchise. A new player could stand to gain information from it, but we would not recommend it at the $89.99 price point.
