The highly anticipated Obsidian role-playing game, Avowed, will officially launch on 18th February 2025. However, players opting for the Premium Edition can dive into the action five days earlier. Priced at £89.99/$89.99, the Premium Edition includes exclusive perks alongside early access.
Avowed Premium Edition Details
For £20/$20 more than the base game, the Premium Edition provides the following benefits:
- Early access starting 13th February 2025.
- Two premium cosmetic skin packs:
- Eora Collection Set: Inspired by Pillars of Eternity, featuring designs rooted in the lore of the franchise.
- Obsidian Collection Set: Sleek black-themed outfits.
- Access to the digital artbook and official game soundtrack.
The base version of Avowed costs £70/$70 and is also available on day one via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. For PC users, the game will launch on both Steam and Blizzard’s Battle.net, marking a surprising collaboration facilitated by Microsoft’s ownership of both companies.
Strategic Timing and Competitive Launch Window
Avowed will face competition, with Assassin’s Creed Shadows releasing on 14th February 2025. Ubisoft initially planned early access for its title but scrapped the idea following a delay. Despite this overlap, Avowed seeks to captivate players with its immersive fantasy setting and exclusive Premium Edition rewards.
How to Play Early
Players interested in accessing Avowed via Battle.net will need to link their Xbox Game Pass account. This setup highlights Microsoft’s cross-platform integration strategy, making the game widely accessible to PC and console audiences alike.
