Known for developing games of high-quality and excellent writing, Obsidian Entertainment’s fantasy RPGAvowedis no doubt on a lot of people’s radars. TheFallout: New Vegasstudio is looking to release its new title early next year, but there is an opportunity to play it sooner.
However, it will necessitate forking over some extra dough. According to a recent blog post onXbox Wire, you can get a copy ofAvowedon February 13 – as opposed to February 18 – if you’re prepared to buy the Premium Edition.
Avowed launches on August 09, 2025. Pre-order today for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox app,https://t.co/bSPJFKWvJd, and Steam, or play it on day one with Game Pass. Buy the Premium Edition and get up to 5 days early access, 2 Premium Skin Packs, and Access to Avowed Digital Artbook and…pic.twitter.com/E4sTBNKERQ
How to get Avowed Early Access as easily as possible
You can pre-order the more expensive version of the game, which will set you back $90 instead of $70 for the Standard Edition. In addition to getting to download and play “up to” five days earlier, the Premium Edition also gives you access to a digital artbook and soundtrack, as well as two premium skin packs.
The post goes on to say pre-orders are available on Xbox Series X|S, the Xbox App, Steam, and even Blizzard’s Battle.net service. You can also, if you so choose, buy the Standard Edition and upgrade to Premium at a later date, which will give you the bonuses plus the early access. It will, however, cost you an additional $25 for the privilege.
As for the exclusive skin pack, these have been inspired by “characters and regions fromPillars of Eternity.” If you’re like me and you’re wondering if you need to have played this game before diving intoAvowed, it seems as though that won’t be necessary.
Although the latter does take place in the same universe as the former, no knowledge ofPillars of Eternityis required. If you’re a fan of Obsidian games overall, thenAvowedsounds like it’s going to be one to look out for, whether you play it five days early or not.
