Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is well on its way, and pre-orders are already live for the game. The latest addition to the series launches on Oct. 5 for Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4, and interested players can pick up four different versions before the game comes out.

At the moment, all but one special edition is available for pre-order, with the biggest and priciest still to be made available. For now, here’s every available edition for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey—and how you can save the most money on picking up the game before it launches.

Special Editions

While Assassin’s Creed Odyssey has special editions available for interested fans, versions such as the Collector’s Edition have multiple iterations that players can pick up. The bigger—and pricier—editions don’t necessarily come with all content available from the less expensive versions, either. Deluxe Edition and Gold Edition content, for example, are separate from one another.

All pre-orders for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey come with early access to “The Blind King” mission, even for the game’s Standard Edition. Any special editions containing the Gold Edition receive early access to Odyssey, along with the game’s season pass. So if you’re interested in taking a journey to Greece, here’s each edition separated by its various installments.

Deluxe Edition

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Deluxe Edition comes with the Kronos Gear Pack, the Herald of Dusk Gear Pack, boosts for players’ XP and Drachma, and the Carpicornus Naval Pack. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s Deluxe Edition retails for $79.99 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Gold Edition

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Gold Edition comes with the game’s season pass, promising free downloads for upcoming DLC along with the “Secrets of Greece” mission. But most impressive of all, the Gold Edition also comes with early access to Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on Oct. 2. The Gold Edition is available for $99.99 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

There’s also an additional Gold Edition which comes with all the same content as the base Gold Edition, but also features an Assassin’s Creed Odyssey steelbook. That version, called the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Gold Steelbook Edition, is available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at $109.99.

Ultimate Edition

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey features an Ultimate Edition as well, with all content available from both the Gold and Deluxe Editions combined. That means players can enjoy the game on Oct. 2, three days earlier than the rest of the world, while also earning the additional XP boosts and bonus content packs available from purchasing the Deluxe Edition.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Ultimate Edition is available for $119.99 for Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4.

Collector’s Edition

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Collector’s Edition comes with “The Blind King” mission and the “Secrets of Greece” mission. It’s also split into three different versions: the Pantheon Edition, the Spartan Edition, and the Kassandra Edition

Let’s face it, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey has so many special editions that it can be a little confusing. Your preferred PC special edition release may not be available at GaneStop right away, or Amazon may be missing your platform’s Ultimate Edition, causing some headaches. So if you’re eager to pre-order with a retailer that has nearly every edition ready for order across platforms, just go directly with Assassin’s Creed’s publisher: Ubisoft.

The Ubisoft Official Store has each special edition for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey neatly laid out, letting you pick and choose between special editions for pre-order. Plus, if you have 100 or more Ubisoft Club units sitting in your account, you can use these for a 20 percent storewide discount—saving you some cash on your pre-order.

GameStop
