Avowed Early Access & Release Times Revealed! Preload Now & Save 5 Days

Once again, Obsidian Entertainment has returned with Avowed, transporting gamers to the magical realms of Eora for an exciting new journey in the realm of fantasy role-playing games.

Immersing myself in the captivating universe of Pillars of Eternity, I embark on a mission as an emissary from the Aedyr Empire, tasked with unraveling the mystery behind the lethal ailment known as the Dream Scourge. True to Obsidian RPG style, I’m free to chart my own course – delving into hidden corners, tackling optional quests, forging alliances by recruiting diverse companions, and engaging in battles against an array of formidable adversaries.

Before the official launch of Avowed on February 18, you’ll have a head start if you opt for the Premium Edition, allowing you access five days earlier! Here are the specific timings for your gameplay along with the preload details and estimated file size.

How to pre-load Avowed

You can preload Avowed now to start playing the game as soon as it goes live, and here’s how:

  1. Buy Avowed through the Xbox Store or Steam, or have Xbox Game Pass.
  2. Find Avowed on your platform’s store.
  3. Select the pre-install button.
  4. Select your hard drive (SSD recommended).
  5. Hit pre-install one more time to confirm the download.

Download file size

Initially, the computer version of Avowed takes up approximately 72.03 gigabytes. Compared to other big releases, this is relatively smaller – Dragon Age: The Veilguard requires about 93GB and the last significant Xbox release, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, occupies around 113 GB on PC. A similar massive open-world RPG, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, demands approximately 84GB.

As an enthusiastic admirer of Avowed, I’d highly recommend looking into the game’s PC system specifications for a smooth gaming experience. Additionally, a fascinating aspect to bear in mind is that, unlike some other games, you won’t find an option to develop romantic relationships with any companions within the game.
