You can get Avowed five days early, but only if you buy the Premium Edition

Known for developing games of high-quality and excellent writing, Obsidian Entertainment’s fantasy RPG Avowed is no doubt on a lot of people’s radars. The Fallout: New Vegas studio i♕s 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 on , you can get a copy of Avowed on February 13 – as opposed to February 18 – if you’re prepared to buy the Premium Edition.

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.

Avowed will al💖so be availa🍎ble on Game Pass from day one. Additionally, Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can play via their Battle.net membership.

As for the exclusive skin pack, these have been inspired by “characters and regions from Pillars of Eternity.” If you’re like me and you’re wondering if you need to have played this game before diving into Avowed, it seems as though that won’t be necessary.

Although the latter does take place in the same universe as the former, no knowledge of Pillars of Eternity is required. If you’re a fan of Obsidian games overall, then Avowed sounds like it’s going to be one to look out for, whether you play it five days early or not.
