Which edition should you buy? Every real price gap in our catalogue
Every game in our catalogue that sells more than one edition, and exactly what the premium tier costs over Standard — no invented markup.
8 games in our catalogue currently sell a higher edition tier at publisher RRP. Here is exactly what that premium costs today, with no claim about whether it was ever a "deal" — we do not have price history to check that.

What actually decides if the premium is worth it
The badge on a Deluxe or Ultimate tier is marketing copy, not a value judgment — a season pass or a cosmetics pack is only worth the premium if you'd buy that specific content on its own. The one question worth asking before paying more than Standard: would you pay the delta above for exactly what's in the higher tier, as a standalone purchase, on its own merits? If the answer is no, the discount on the bundle doesn't change that.
A launch-edition premium is worth judging against what the extra content is worth to you specifically — not against how big a number the badge on the tier shows.
- Does a higher edition ever go on sale separately from Standard?
- Yes — publishers occasionally discount tiers independently, which can shrink or widen the gap shown here overnight. This list reflects live pricing on every refresh, not a fixed premium.
- Is the extra content in a premium tier ever available to buy separately later?
- Sometimes, as standalone DLC after launch — but not always, and rarely at the same effective price as buying it bundled upfront. Check the game's own page for any DLC we track separately before assuming you can add it later.
