What the $20 Deluxe upgrade pays for

Deluxe includes the base game, a Premium Ace Pass Plus voucher, a customizable cosmetic set, and three days of early access for eligible digital preorders. Premium Plus includes Premium pass rewards and a 30-level seasonal skip. Because both Premium tiers can be purchased separately, wait for standalone pass pricing if the pass is the only Deluxe feature you want.

Preorder bonuses do not require Deluxe

Both Standard and Deluxe preorders include the playable F-14A and Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War in the version tied to the purchased platform. Deluxe adds early access and its own contents; it is not required for the two general preorder bonuses.

How to compare regional prices correctly

Do not convert the displayed dollar and euro amounts as if tax treatment were identical. Check the same edition, platform, physical or digital format, included collectibles, shipping, and final tax. The Joker Flight packs are especially sensitive to platform and region availability.
