The Title includes the original critically acclaimed game (Dragon Age: Origins) and its expansion (Dragon Age: Origins &ndash; Awakening).<\/p>\n<p>Nine of the DLC packs released thus far are also included in the package: The Darkspawn Chronicles; Feastday Combo Pack (2-in-1); The Golems of Amgarrak; Leliana&#8217;s Song; Return to Ostagar; The Stone Prisoner; Warden&#8217;s Keep; and Witch Hunt.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s a whole load of content valued at around US$114 (&plusmn;R780) if one were to buy all the various packages separately. If any RPG fan missed out on this game during its initial release, thre couldn&rsquo;t be a better time to pick it up. Dragon Age 2 is set for a March 2011 release, so that should be plenty of time to catch up with the story from the first title. It has also been confirmed that Dragon Age: Origins saved games&rsquo; persistent <a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/7904-Save-game-imports-confirmed-for-Dragon-Age.html\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Save game imports confirmed for Dragon Age 2\">world info can be ported across into the sequel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In South Africa, the only online retailer listing the game at the moment is Zaps Online, for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zapsonline.com\/45044-ps3-dragon-age-origins-ultimate-edition-ea5030930096847.html\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Zaps Online\">PS3<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zapsonline.com\/45045-xbox-360-dragon-age-origins-ultimate-edition-nu5030930096823.html\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Zaps Online\">Xbox 360<\/a>, both coming it at R529. Zaps has no word on PC version pricing yet, and by the time of publication, MyGaming was still awaiting official comment from EA South Africa.<\/p>\n<p>International pricing pegs the PC version at around the US$49.95 mark (&plusmn;R340), with PS3 and Xbox 360 versions coming in at US$59.95 (&plusmn;R410). With import duties and so on, it appears that the Zaps pricing is on the mark, so we can expect a PC version to come in at around R440.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dragon_Age_ultimate_edition_687527632.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Dragon Age Ultimate Edition\" title=\"Dragon Age Ultimate Edition\" width=\"600\" height=\"387\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To promote the game, BioWare has released the video below, featuring a remix of the 30 Seconds to Mars song, Closer to the Edge &ndash; a song which is also featured on the game&rsquo;s soundtrack.<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"600\" height=\"361\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/-MkFA49nJI8?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"600\" height=\"361\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/-MkFA49nJI8?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/8456-Dragon-Age-Origins-Ultimate-edition-incoming?p=299878#post299878\" target=\"_self\">Discuss the Dragon Age Ultimate Edition<\/a> on the MyGaming forum.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-7908 gallery-columns-0 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/business\/7908-dragon-age-ultimate-edition-confirmed\/attachment\/dragon_age_ultimate_edition_687527632-jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dragon_Age_ultimate_edition_687527632-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The all-but-confirmed rumour has been confirmed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":157,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7908","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7908","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/157"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7908"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7908\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7908"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7908"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
