AVOWED PRE PURCHASE

Welcome to the Living Lands, envoy. Welcome to Avowed.

Obsidian Entertainment is proud to invite you to their first-person fantasy RPG, Avowed, to experience the mystery and allure of the Living Lands. Arriving on February 18, 2025, Avowed takes you to a never-before seen region from the world of Eora, first introduced in the award-winning Pillars of Eternity. As the emperor’s envoy tasked with rooting out a terrible plague that is ravaging the Living Lands, you and your companions must uncover hidden truths and navigate treacherous challenges, where every choice you make will shape the fate of these lands and their people.

You can pre-purchase Avowed now and start your journey to the Living Lands when the game officially launches on February 18, but if you wish to answer the call to adventure up to five days early, pre-purchase the Avowed Digital Premium Edition and begin your quest starting on February 13.

Pick from one of Avowed’s two digital editions:

  • Avowed Digital Standard Edition – $69.99 (or play it day one with Xbox Game Pass)
    • Base Game
  • Avowed Digital Premium Edition – $89.99
    • Base Game
    • Up to five days Early Access
    • Two Premium Skin Packs
    • Access to Digital Artbook & Soundtrack

If you purchase the base game or are playing day one with Xbox Game Pass and then later decide you want the Premium Edition, you can upgrade at any time for $24.99. You’ll receive all the extra content, including early access and exclusive digital bonuses.

Players with a Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass membership will be able to play on Battle.net by linking their Xbox and Battle.net accounts. For a step-by-step guide on how to link your Battle.net and Xbox accounts, head over to Battle.net Support.

Behind-the-Scenes with the Digital Artbook and Soundtrack

One of the highlights of the Premium Edition is the Avowed Digital Artbook & Soundtrack, where you’ll be able to dive deeper into the world of Avowed with behind-the-scenes artwork from the team and music by composer Venus Theory. These extras are perfect for fans of the Pillars of Eternity franchise and newcomers looking to fully immerse themselves in the lore and soundscapes of the Living Lands.

Exclusive Skins for You and Your Companions

The Premium Edition includes two cosmetic skin packs: the Eora Collection Set and the Obsidian Collection Set. Each pack includes five skins—one for each of the game’s four companions and one for your player character.

  • Eora Collection Set: Inspired by beloved characters and regions from Pillars of Eternity, a perfect throwback to the original games.
  • Obsidian Collection Set: Sleek, black outfits that bring a stylish look to your companions, inspired by our very own studio.
