Hi there, MDPS. I've been wanting Elite: Dangerous for a while and thought I'd wait for the Horizons DLC to bundle everything together. Now that I know Horizons is a standalone title, I have some questions. If you only get Horizons, does it mean you lose access to the space aspects and just land missions? Or is everything included and it's a separate update? If it's the first version, what restrictions apply? I'm still trying to understand how everything is structured. Thanks!

The base game is included in the cost. It blends together like an add-on. Purchasing Horizons alone provides the original title as well, and they function together smoothly.

You were wondering if combining them was necessary since they're distinct yet both playable. Appreciate the clarification!

In Horizons, you continue to interact with original Elite players, though they can't reach the surface or use the updated ships.
