Standard is the base game, Deluxe adds two digital packs, Launch adds physical art items and Blackbeard's pack, and Collector's combines Deluxe with limited collectibles.
Buy Standard if you only want the complete base remake. Buy Deluxe only if the Master Assassin character and naval cosmetics are worth the $10 difference. The Collector's Edition adds physical objects and Blackbeard's Crimson Pack, but Ubisoft's US page currently shows it as sold out.
Edition comparison
| Edition | US price | Game format | Main additions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $59.99 | Digital or physical | Base game |
| Deluxe | $69.99 | Standalone digital | Master Assassin Character Pack and Naval Pack |
| Launch | $59.99 | Physical only | 34-page artbook, world map poster, Blackbeard's Crimson Pack |
| Collector's | $199.99 | Physical console copy; PC key | Deluxe content, Blackbeard pack, 12-inch Edward statue, leather logbook, metal brooch, SteelBook, cloth map, shanty sheet |
The Master Assassin Character Pack contains an Edward costume, sword, pistol, and trinket with perks. The Master Assassin Naval Pack adds a sail set, ship pet, crew attire, wheel, figurehead, and hull trim. The Blackbeard's Crimson Pack adds another Edward costume, sword, and pistol with perks.
These are equipment and cosmetic bundles, not extra campaign chapters. Ubisoft's new missions, rifts, officers, and “A World Without Gold” endgame chapter belong to the remake itself rather than being listed as Deluxe-only story DLC.
Collector's Edition quantities are limited. Ubisoft says it cannot provide another copy after local retailers sell out. Avoid treating a marketplace reseller as official restock, and compare the asking price with the original $199.99 list price before buying.
Digital content redemption requires an internet connection and Ubisoft account. The solo campaign's offline boundary is covered separately on single-player, offline, and multiplayer.
