Why do have to spend more money to play Starfield standard edition?

You would only need the premium edition to get early access. Otherwise, it's not a requirement to get the premium edition.

The console bundles always come with a standard copy. Im not sure why though. Maybe they just want us to spend more money and buy both.

I can understand the frustration, but given that you have already spent £1000 on games wouldn't it make far more sense to get another Xbox One (even if it's a standard edition), than to spend even more money on a PS4 and another game collection? You already
have the games, that cost £1000, and you already have right to get the console replaced for free. Staying with the Xbox means spending no more money, jumping ship means shelling out all over again.

There isn't really anything special about the Day One Edition...There's an Achievement, which I assume you already unlocked, and the controller says "Day One 2013". That's it.

Hi there, RAMPAGE MIA 2.

I am terribly sorry to see that you are having these inconveniences, however for in the near future I highly recommend that you research into items that you buy, before purchasing them. Also, I suggest you stick to the official adapters such as the one in

Hello! As an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, you will have access to the standard edition of Starfield on the day of release. However, if you want to upgrade to the premium edition, you will need to purchase it separately. The premium edition is not included in your Game Pass subscription. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Keep in mind with.gamepass ultimate you don't keep starfield or any game you only have it while you are subscribed

Meaning yes you do have to pay full price minus the 10% gamepass doscount
