Mass Effect: Andromeda is nearly here. If you're not a fan, you've probably been hiding in dark space for 50,000 years... or you just haven't seen our IGN First content for Andromeda this month.
As with most major releases, multiple versions of Mass Effect: Andromeda will be available when it is released on March 21. Plus, if you're planning on preordering, some retailers offer much more bang (and exclusive goods) for your buck than others. If you're a more casual player, the standard $60 version ($48 with Amazon Prime) will be just fine, but we're here to break down all the various preorder bonuses and exclusives if you want something more.
Price: $70
Mass Effect: Andromeda: Deluxe Edition includes the core game, plus digital bonuses to give you an edge in both single-player and multiplayer. The full list of bonuses follows:
- Deep Space Explorer armor set
- A unique skin for the Nomad
- 5 50% XP boosters for multiplayer
- Pathfinder casual outfit
- Scavenger armor
- 4 Pathfinder Elite weapons
- A pet pyjak
- Mass Effect: Andromeda digital soundtrack
- A Multiplayer Deluxe Launch Pack, which instantly unlocks weapons and equipment

Price: $100
Mass Effect: Andromeda: Super Deluxe Edition includes all the bonuses of the Deluxe version, plus one very important deal: every week for 20 weeks, Super Deluxe Edition owners will receive one Premium Pack (for multiplayer) to boost their in-game progression.
If you are determined to enjoy Mass Effect: Andromeda primarily as a single-player experience, the Super Deluxe Edition won't be worth your money. However, if multiplayer appeals to you, 20 Premium Packs are worth $60, making this version a bargain.

Preordering Mass Effect: Andromeda from most retailers grants you access to three goodies: the Deep Space Explorer armor set, a unique Nomad skin, and five 50% XP boosters for multiplayer. These items are included in the Deluxe and Super Deluxe game versions by default; the only way to receive them with the standard game is to preorder.
Below, we'll tell you which retailers offer these goodies and which retailers are sweetening the deal with additional deals or bonuses. Check them all out and decide which is right for you.
