@Zumester If you look at the Gamestop Ultimate Edition - Xbox One edition. Here are the hints as physical editions have been code only for a long time.

Pre-Order Low Price Guarantee

Billing does not occur until item is available for download
Downloads to U.S. Addresses Only

THE BATTLEFIELD™ 2042 ULTIMATE EDITION CONTAINS:
Early access to game launch
Year 1 Pass: 4 New Specialists (1 per Season), 4 Battle Passes (1 per Season), and 3 Epic Skin Bundles (”Blistered Earth”, ”Tempest”, and ”Cold Blood”)
Midnight Ultimate Bundle ("Shadow Stalker" Legendary Outfit, "Obsidian" Legendary Weapon Skin, "Onyx" Legendary Vehicle Skin)
Official Digital Artbook
Exclusive Digital Soundtrack
Cross-Gen Bundle

Nowhere does it say there's a physical installable disc in there. Hence why almost all physical boxes are code only. Plus whatever junk you think you need extra.

@threedog1421 Yes, that is the case with Gold and Ultimate editions and I was hoping that there would be a physical version sometime before launch. At this point, only standard has physical. Looking at one specific retailer, Best Buy in this case, here is the info attached about the preorder steel book:

“Store your Battlefield 2042 disc in this SteelBook case. The front and back feature separate metal pieces for exceptional durability, and the detailed game-inspired interior and exterior graphics add flair to your media collection. This SteelBook case has a plastic core to keep a single CD or DVD secure.”

In addition, the description lists the media as Physical.

Here is the link to what I’m talking about. Note, I am not a Best Buy rep or anything, just including this as evidence that points to a physical disc version: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/ps5-battlefield-2042-playstation-5/6465742.p?skuId=6465742&ref=212&loc=1&ref=212&loc=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh7zUhf6u8QIVbiCtBh1qPwN-EAQYAyABEgISVPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

    @Zumester I don't know, not saying you're lying or anything. But Bestbuy has goofed on info regarding games etc In the past. So I guess we'll just need to see.
