Diff - editions and pre order bonuses - Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Wiki

11 Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses covers the retail editions, the pre-order Deluxe upgrade, and the early-access window for 007 First Light. IO Interactive sells the game in four editions: Standard, Specialist, Collector's, and Legacy. Every edition includes the same complete single-player campaign, and no story content is locked behind a paid tier. The differences are physical collectibles and cosmetic in-game items.

1515 Cosmetic-Only Policy

1616

1717 Everything that varies between editions and in the Deluxe upgrade is cosmetic or a physical collectible. Outfits, weapon skins, and gadget skins change appearance only; they do not alter weapon damage, gadget behavior, or any in-game stat. This mirrors how cosmetic unlocks work in Tactical Simulation Mode, where Clearance Level progression and Intel currency unlock further outfits and skins after launch.
