Ubisoft briefly released the Starter Edition last June in order to boost the player base a little, and now it has been made available again through the Uplay Store.
The Starter Edition costs £12 and includes most of the full game, except that you do not have full access to all of the operators in the game, although you do get 2 random ones and some virtual currency towards others.
The Starter Edition also works with the Season Pass, and the offer will end on October 11.
