Hey there! I’m looking to pick up a used physical copy of FFXIV, but I’m a bit confused about whether the Collector’s Edition comes with any DLCs on the disc or if it’s essentially the same as the regular edition. Both options are priced the same, and since I’m new to FFXIV, I really want to make an informed choice! I’ve tried to find answers online, but nothing really clicks for me. Any advice would be super appreciated! Thanks!

Definitely consider trying the free trial before buying anything! It lets you play up to level 70 and includes A Realm Reborn and Stormblood expansions at no cost. That way, you can really see if you enjoy the game before committing to any purchases!
Honestly, I’d steer clear of both. Since they’re used, you’re basically just getting a box without a game, because you’ll need a code to activate them and most likely, the previous owner has already used it.
Agreed! The physical copies of FFXIV are more or less collector’s items these days. You might find more value in just waiting for a sale on the Complete Edition on the PlayStation Store. It’s often discounted! Plus, you’ll start off with everything included!
You’re right to be cautious! For FFXIV, the Collector’s Edition usually includes a code for some cosmetic items, but if it’s been opened, you won’t get those since they’re one-time use. So, if you want to get in on the action without missing out, I’d suggest looking at the free trial first!
