Modes range from single-player only to local and online multiplayer. Several entries specifically note two-player co-op for the full campaign, alongside other online or local multiplayer options.
Some titles support both first- and third-person perspectives. An expansion is described as designed for third-person but remains playable in first-person, and other entries note optional first- or third-person exploration.
Offerings include digital downloads and physical copies. Some editions are digital-only while others are physical, including special collector-oriented releases.
Editions often include special/collector and complete/standard editions that bundle the main game with extras such as season passes, expansions (for example, a “From the Ashes” expansion), exclusive cosmetics and bonus digital items, and a digital artbook; collector editions may add physical items like statues, art books, and SteelBook cases.
Typical features include open-world exploration, character customization, crafting and gear/skill upgrades, aerial mounts (banshee) for travel and aerial encounters, multiple combat styles, and support for single-player or two-player online co-op campaigns.
Many entries state that an internet connection and a publisher account are required to access online multiplayer and downloadable content. Some also note that a platform account or console subscriptions/services may be required, and that a mandatory Day 1 patch download can be needed before offline play is available.
Expansions and bonus content are often bundled into special or complete editions (for example, a “From the Ashes” expansion and floating-mountains mount cosmetics). Descriptions note that expansions may be included with an edition or offered as separate downloadable content, and that online redemption and release details can require an internet connection and an account.
Customization covers visual and gameplay options: visual choices include species, face options, varied body types, unique colors and patterns, and hundreds of clothing items; gameplay customization includes crafting gear and upgrading skills and equipment.
