Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader comes with any packs, but the two that everyone wants to know about are the Collector’s Edition and the Ultimate Digital Pack. One is reasonably priced at $70 but the other is a $300 purchase with a lot of accessories. We’ll let you know which you should purchase below and what comes with each.
Should I Buy the Ultimate Digital Pack or the Collector’s Edition of Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader?
Unless you are a super fan of Warhammer 40k, getting the Collector’s Edition over the Ultimate Digital Pack is not worth it. We recommend grabbing the Ultimate Digital Pack. The only reason it would be worth it as a super fan is that you can get your name in the game’s credits in the Collector’s Edition, which is a huge benefit. You can always say you are credited in that game, making you a huge Warhammer 40k fan.

The Collector’s Edition is almost $300, whereas the Ultimate Digital Pack is only $70. If you’re planning on playing the game, you should get the Ultimate Digital Pack because of how much stuff it comes with for the price of a regular game. Otherwise, paying $130 more just for a statue, an art book, and a few other items doesn’t seem worth it for someone who just wants to play the game.
Below, we’ll go over what you can get with each edition, starting with the one we recommend, the Ultimate Digital Pack.
