DIVINITY ORIGINAL SIN ENHANCED EDITION RELEASE DATE AND PRE-ORDER DETAILS ANNOUNCEDAt the link you can make a selection of country and console version to determine what the sum of your goodies will be.
Larian Studios' multi-award winning RPG comes to PS4 and Xbox One from October 27 (28th for PSN Europe), with a host of pre-order offers from participating retailers.
Everyone who pre-orders the game from participating retailers on Xbox One or PS4 will receive the Last Trick Bag, offering a host of new cosmetic items, and the White Dragon wand - one of the new weapons for one of two new combat styles in Enhanced Edition - which comes with the Ice Wall Skill.
Grumio himself writes to you to explain just how these bags came to be in the world of Rivellon:
"To Whom It May Concern (preferably an imp),
I, Grumio, son of Gromio, have made new strides in the fields of fashion, engineering and Things-That-Go-BOOM! Colours are hidden in my jars, but they do more than dye: they DESTRUCT when used for purposes more entertaining than vogue and vagary! Just combine them with empty grenades and you'll soon see for yourself… The design of wands too -them nifty wizards' tools- I have improved to great and unique effects. Little do those one-trick-pony magicians know how an impalytical mind like mine outshines them O so brightly! A specially crafted sprocket is all one needs to add powerful attributes to inert wands. What fun, what jolly mischief the results!
So rejoice, dear reader, for you have learned some of the secrets of Grumio! "

I was about to complain about zero goodies for pc owners then Inoticed the console people are ponying up 60 bucks so I am good with the EE.
Is it going to contain any extra quests or just filler?

I wouldn't pick up the backpack of an Imp personally… these new console players will probably go boom.
There is 2 new combat styles (wands and dual wielding).
For the new gameplay modes, they are talking about the Tactical Mode I believe (it's not just a new difficulty).

- New intuitive user-interface tailored for controllers (KB/Mouse UI is still present)
- Dynamic split-screen for co-op
- Fully voiced and remastered dialogs with AAA-actors
- Hours of new content; quests, combat-styles, location and changes to the crafting system.
- Entirely new gameplay modes and character builds
- A heavily rewritten story with a brand new ending
- Massively reworked visuals and sound effects

For clarity, the number 1 item on that list is actually an extra new user interface tailored for controllers. The current user interface is for the most part still the same if you play with keyboard and mouse. So the game has two different user interfaces.

Well releasing on consoles isn't free like it is on PC, if I remember right even releasing a patch isn't free. So a price increase for console versions isn't without reason and not the developers fault.
Charge console users $110 for…. reasons.
