What Edition Of Star Wars Outlaws Should I Buy?

For those who are huge Star Wars fans and are eagerly awaiting Star Wars Outlaws for the story as much as the gameplay. You may want to consider the Star Wars Outlaws Gold Edition as you get the extra story content that comes with the season pass, one of which is available on day one!
