Which edition should you buy?
The Standard Edition is the full game. The Ultimate Edition adds cosmetic and in-game extras on top, so it only makes sense if you know you'll play for a long time.
If you're unsure, buy Standard. You can usually upgrade later, but you can't downgrade.
Pre-order bonuses
Pre-ordering either edition adds the Vintage Vice City Pack. Digital pre-orders also include a month of GTA+.
Is it cheaper anywhere?
Console store prices are fixed at launch. Physical retailers sometimes discount the box, but remember physical copies are a download code, so the only advantage is resale value or the price itself.
