Availability of former pre-order incentives and physical stock can change by retailer and region. Check the relevant storefront before purchasing for one specific item. The full campaign itself is not split between edition tiers.

- Collector's — $199.99: everything in Deluxe plus premium physical collectibles.

Editions FAQ
Which Black Flag Resynced edition should I buy?
If you just want to play, the Standard Edition ($59.99) is all you need — extras are cosmetic. For ship and character cosmetics, the Deluxe ($69.99) is the sweet spot. Collectors who want the figurine and physical goodies should pick the Collector's ($199.99).
Is the former pre-order bonus still available?
The Blackbeard's Crimson pack was promoted as a pre-order incentive. Ubisoft's launch guide focuses on current edition contents, so check the store page for your platform before buying specifically for this pack.
Do the editions affect the campaign?
No. All editions contain the same full single-player campaign. The differences are cosmetic packs and physical collectibles only — there is no gameplay paywall.
Is there a physical Collector's Edition?
Yes. The $199.99 Collector's Edition includes a 31 cm Edward Kenway figurine, a leather logbook, a metal Assassin brooch, a SteelBook, a sea shanty music sheet, and both Master Assassin packs plus Blackbeard's Crimson pack.
