Avowed launches on Windows PC and Xbox Series X on Tuesday, Feb. 18, following five days of early access for those who picked up the game’s premium editions. The standard edition of Avowed will be available on Game Pass.
Set in the Pillars of Eternity universe of Eora, Avowed sends you on an adventure around the Living Lands region, as long as you own a Windows PC or Xbox Series X. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to play Avowed on PlayStation 5 at launch. While publisher Xbox Game Studios has started bringing games to non-Xbox consoles, it hasn’t yet announced anything about Avowed.

(Update, Feb. 17: This post has been updated after the early access period to reflect details about the wide release.)
The standard edition of Avowed will be playable on Game Pass via the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass tiers on Tuesday, Feb. 18.
Make sure to check which version of Game Pass you own, as Avowed will not be available for Standard and Core subscribers.
You can purchase the Premium Upgrade Add-On ($25) to unlock early access from Feb. 13, plus additional cosmetics for your companions. It’s important to note that if your purchase the add-on and your subscription runs out, you’ll lose access to the game and its Premium Edition. However, the add-on is much cheaper than the Premium Edition itself, and, if you resubscribe, you’ll regain your add-on and save file.
