Both editions play the same game; the Deluxe difference is purely cosmetic.15151616The game is sold on PC through the EA app for Windows, Steam, and the Epic Games Store, and on console through the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Store. It is also available through EA Play Pro. On PlayStation and Xbox the Deluxe content can be bought after the fact as a Deluxe Edition upgrade rather than only as a bundled edition.17171818Pre-Order Bonus19192020Every pre-order, on either edition, includes the Crystalline Astromech Cosmetic Pack. It adds an R3 droid, translucent crystalline astromech heads for the R4 and R5 droid variants, and the exclusive BR-1 droid, all cosmetic options for the squad's astromech. These customize how your astromech looks and do not change how it performs.21212222Deluxe Edition Extras232324242525The Deluxe Edition layers on extra cosmetics for players who want more customization out of the box. It bundles two cosmetic packs and a set of painted weapon themes. As with the pre-order bonus, every item is cosmetic, changing how the squad looks rather than how it fights.26262727PackCosmetic ContentsGrand Army of the Republic Cosmetic PackRepublic Officer uniform, 100th Clone Company armor set, and ARC Trooper armor setShadow Collective Cosmetic PackPyke helmet cosmetic and five tattoos: Pyke Syndicate, Hutt Cartel, Death Watch, Black Sun Syndicate, and Crimson DawnWeapon Set ThemesFive painted weapon themes: 100th Clone Company, Kafrene Informant, Black Sun Syndicate Enforcer, Bespin Security, and Separatist Warrior2828All of the bonus content above is cosmetic, so it shapes the squad's appearance rather than its stats. The pre-order offer is redeemable through August 27, 2027.29293030Collector's Edition313132-A physical Collector's Edition was revealed on July 25, 2026 and sells for $299.99 through Limited Run Games, in PlayStation 5, Xbox, and PC configurations.

It carries weathered deco modelled on the in-game device, two light-up modes that a long press swaps between, and a sound sequence triggered by pressing, tossing, or shaking it once armed. Everything in the box is physical: the Collector's Edition adds no in-game items beyond the Deluxe upgrade, so the cosmetic contents listed above still apply.363637-The Collector's Edition remained on sale after launch.

Its pre-order window closes on Sunday, September 13, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern, a little over two weeks after the game itself shipped, and it is listed as still in pre-production.

Difficulty setting and prior experience with the strategy genre move that figure in either direction.49495050Steam Features51515252The Steam version runs natively and does not need the EA app launcher. The store terms are stricter than that suggests: an internet connection, an EA Account, a Steam Account and a link between the two accounts are all listed as required to play. The listing also carries Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud saves, HDR output, Family Sharing, and partial controller support that covers DualSense and DualShock pads.535354545555Playing also unlocks a set of Steam collectibles: nine trading cards, six badge tiers running Metal, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Sapphire and Foil, three profile backgrounds, and seven character emoticons. The card art covers Hawks, Trick, Cly Kullervo, Luco Bronc, Jae Mordant, Tel-Rea Vokoss, Kabb Uppercut, M-3VO, and the BR-1 droid. The three backgrounds are titled Luco and Trick, Zero Company, and Caisson. The PC version also carries 53 achievements, 24 of them visible from the start and 29 hidden.56565757What Is And Is Not Planned585859-QuestionAnswerNew Game PlusNot included, though some customization options unlock on later playthroughsMicrotransactionsNo plans for monetization or microtransactions at this timePost-launch content or DLCNothing announcedMod supportNo official mod support plannedSteam DeckNot Steam Deck Verified at launch; Bit Reactor has said it will update the community if that changesCollector's EditionRevealed on July 25, 2026; a $299.99 physical set, detailed belowSubscriptionAvailable through EA Play ProAchievements53 on the PC version59+QuestionAnswerNew Game PlusNot included, though some customization options unlock on later playthroughsMicrotransactionsNo plans for monetization or microtransactions at this timePost-launch content or DLCNothing announcedMod supportNo official mod support plannedSteam DeckUnsupported.

It is the only add-on the game has, and it is cosmetic throughout: the same Grand Army of the Republic and Shadow Collective cosmetic packs and the five weapon set themes that come with the Deluxe edition. Buying it is the same thing as owning Deluxe; it is not additional content.65+66+Beyond that upgrade there is no downloadable content, no season pass, and no announced roadmap.
