Battlefield 2042 has multiple offerings in terms of the game's variants. The Ultimate Edition comes at $109.99 for PC and $119.99 for consoles. But is it worth it? Let's find out.
The answer to this question is subjective. If you want the—Midnight Ultimate bundle and digital artbook & soundtrack—the Ultimate Edition is worth it for you, otherwise it's not.
Furthermore, let's have a look at what the Battlefield 2042 Ultimate Edition has to to offer:
- Base game
- Pre-Order bonuses including—"ACB-90" Melee takedown knife, "Mr. Chompy" weapon charm, "Landfall" player card, and "Old Guard" tag
- One week early access to the game on Nov. 12
- Year One Pass which comes with—four Battle Passes, four new Specialists, and three skin bundles.
- Cross-gen bundle for PS5 - PS4 and Xbox One - Series X|S
- Midnight Ultimate bundle including—"Shadow Stalker" Specialist skin, "Obsidian" weapon skin, and "Onyx" skin for Ranger.
- Official Digital Artbook
- Exclusive Digital Soundtrack
If you don't want to miss out on any of the aforementioned rewards, go for the BF 2042 Ultimate Edition. However, there are certain items within this list that you can also get with the Gold Edition such as the year one pass and cross-gen bundle.
If the question was whether the Ultimate Edition is the most cost-effective, our answer would be no. There is no reason to spend an extra $40-50 on just cosmetics unless you've truly developed a taste for them. It would be best to opt out of the Standard and Gold Editions of Battlefield 2042.
