Tips for Best Value
- Pre-order Early — Physical bonuses (steelbooks, posters) are limited
- Check Your Platform — Make sure you’re buying for the right console/PC
- Deluxe is the Better Deal — $20 extra for ~$55 worth of content
- Physical vs Digital — Physical for collectors, digital for early access
- Regional Pricing — Check prices in your region — some stores offer better rates
Our Verdict
Pre-ordering the Deluxe Edition makes sense if you know you want the full experience. The $20 premium saves you roughly $35 compared to buying the base game and DLC separately. But there’s no shortage of copies — you won’t miss out by waiting for reviews.
Our tip: If you’re on the fence, pre-order the Standard Edition. You get the pre-order bonus suit either way, and you can upgrade to Deluxe later if you want the extra content.
