The next installment in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, jumps out of an innocuous hay bale on March 20, but you can already save on the Digital Deluxe Edition at Newegg. Normally $89.99, this version of the game for Xbox Series X is discounted to $74.99 when you use the code XVDACSPP at checkout. This coupon makes the Digital Deluxe Edition just $5 more than the Standard Edition, and this package grants access to a variety of exclusive in-game cosmetic items and other content to expand your adventure.

The array of extra items is led by the Sekiryu Dual Pack, a collection of armor, sword, and mount treatments for co-protagonists Yasuke and Naoe. Also included is the Sekiryu Hideout Pack, which offers some extra decorations for your hideout, and five Mastery Points for upgrades in your skill trees. In addition, you’ll get access to the “Thrown to the Dogs” bonus quest at launch, as well as the Claws of Awaji expansion, which is scheduled to be released later this year.
