The Premium Edition includes the digital base game, five seasonal customization packs, 1,000 Iron, and up to five days of early access. In the US Xbox listing, it is priced at US$99.99; the separate US$30 Premium Edition Upgrade does not include the base game. Check which product you are buying before checkout, especially if you already have access to the game.
What the Premium Edition includes
The official edition announcement and Xbox listing identify these included items:
- Digital base game
- Up to five days of early access
- 1,000 Iron
- Bravo Squad Signature Weapon Pack, for campaign use
- Emergence Customization Pack
- Four additional seasonal customization packs, to be delivered as they are released
- Preorder bonuses: Exfil Dom character skin and Exfil weapon skin set; digital preorders receive them automatically
- Open Beta early access for digital preorders, granted automatically
The five customization packs are the Emergence pack plus four later packs. Emergence contains two character skins, two weapon skin sets, two poses, a banner, an emblem, and an icon. The remaining seasonal packs arrive as they are released, so their individual contents are not specified in the available official descriptions.
The early-access benefit is described as up to five days. The official announcement gives October 1, 2026 as the start of Premium early play, ahead of the October 6 launch. Check the store listing for the edition and region you plan to buy for current availability and terms.
Premium Edition or Premium Edition Upgrade?
| Product | Includes the base game? | Listed price | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium Edition | Yes | US$99.99 on the US Xbox listing | Includes the digital base game and Premium benefits |
| Premium Edition Upgrade | No | US$30.00 on the Xbox listing | Requires the base game or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership, purchased separately |
The prices above come from the US Xbox listings and may not describe another region or storefront. The upgrade listing specifies PC and Xbox Series X|S support; the full Premium Edition listing identifies Xbox Series X|S and PC through Xbox Play Anywhere. Steam also lists a separate Premium Edition pre-purchase. Verify platform, price, and product name on your own store page before paying.
If you do not already own the base game or have the stated Game Pass Ultimate membership, the upgrade alone is not the complete game purchase. If you want the full game and the listed Premium benefits together, compare the full Premium Edition listing against the Standard Edition in your store.
Check the listing before you buy
Choose the right product
Open the Premium Edition listing if you need the base game. Choose the separate Premium Edition Upgrade only if you already have the required game access; its listing says the base game or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership is purchased separately.
Confirm platform and regional price
Check the storefront for your platform and region. The US Xbox listing shows US$99.99 for the Premium Edition and US$30.00 for the upgrade; those figures are not confirmed here for other storefronts or regions.
Review the bonus timing
Confirm the listing still offers the preorder bonuses and Open Beta early access. Digital preorders are described as receiving the Exfil skins and beta access automatically, without a code.
Compare the included extras
Make sure early access, 1,000 Iron, the Bravo Squad Signature Weapon Pack, and five seasonal customization packs are worth the price difference to you. The Bravo Squad pack is for campaign use; details for the four later packs have not been specified in the cited descriptions.
