Note: The digital version of this edition is only available until September 8, 2024

The All-Stars and Hall of Fame Editions — at $99.99 and $149.99, respectively — are a fair bit pricier than the base game. We recommend most players pick the Standard Edition if they are not going to partake in the MyTeam portion of the game.

MyCareer on the other hand is this game's single-player mode. Extra goodies for it, while good to have, are not needed to play it.

As a side note. the Trendsetter bonus will only be available until October 17, 2024, so if you buy the game before that date, you will get a bonus of 15,000 VC in-game.
