Price for ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’ Ultimate Edition announced
Electronic Arts announced the “Star Wars: Battlefront” Ultimate Edition last week along with the Deluxe Edition. However, the company did not talk about the price for the game’s variant.
With the game’s pre-order page now live on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, the premium version of the game will cost AU$165. This is twice the price of the standard game, reported Gamespot. The Ultimate Edition includes the main game, the DLCs and all the content in the Deluxe Edition like the Ion Grenade, Ion Torpedo, Han Solo's DL-44 blaster, Ion Shock emote and the Victory emote.
The Deluxe Edition is available for AU$96 by itself, while the DLC pass is priced at AU$69. This means that the Ultimate Edition is just a collective bundle that includes all the add-ons for the game. Another benefit for players and fans of “Star Wars: Battlefront” is that this edition saves time from buying everything separately. The Ultimate Edition does not include any exclusive perks, as listed in the official website.
For Xbox One owners with an EA Access membership, every bundle of the game comes at a 10 percent discount. This translates to the base game coming in at AU$74, the DLC pass priced at AU$62 and the Ultimate Edition of the game being priced at AU$148.
The company decided to extend the multiplayer beta deadline an entire day until Oct. 13. This drew around nine million players across Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, making it the largest beta in Electronic Arts’ history.
“Star Wars: Battlefront” launches on Nov.17, a month before Disney’s “Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens” hits the theatres. The company has decided to release DLCs for the game taking elements from the movie.
