Everything included in UFC 5 Deluxe Edition

If you pre-order the UFC 5 Deluxe Edition (which costs $99.99), you’ll gain three days of early access, in addition to Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, and Fedor Emelianenko. You’ll also get:

  • The Bruce Lee Bundle (3 Fighter Variants:  Bruce Lee – Jumpsuit, Bruce Lee – Vale Tudo, Bruce Lee – Authentic Damage)  
  • Four Alter Egos (Jon Jones, Israel Adesanya, Alexander Volkanovski, Valentina Shevchenko) 
  • Origins Bundle (Conor McGregor [2013], Leon Edwards [2015], and 22 Vanity Items) 
  • 30th-Anniversary Vanity Bundle (4 Vanity Items)
  • Online Career Mode XP Boosts (x5)

Alter Egos are versions of fighters from the past: It’s similar to how some past wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin, Rey Mysterio, and The Rock are shown in the WWE games.

Is this worth it?

It depends on how much of a combat sports fan you are. It would be badass to play as the legendary Bruce Lee against Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali. You can also relive the glory days of Conor McGregor in 2013 and Leon Edwards in 2015. The three days of early access is also neat.

However, it is quite the bump from the regular $69.99 price. If you can afford it, go for it. If these items don’t seem worth it for you and don’t care about past fighters, go with the standard edition. Unfortunately, the game won’t be crossplay at all, potentially lessening its value to players.
