With Avowed's imminent launch, it's almost time to return to Obsidian's world of Eora for the first time since 2018's Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire. We've had the de rigueur "advanced access" preorder bonus for those who forked over for the game's "Premium" edition, with high roller fans able to access Avowed beginning on February 13.
The rest of us will have to wait for Avowed's proper release on Tuesday, February 18. Below, I've laid out Avowed's unlock times by time zone, with one section for advanced access, and another for all us plebs.
Avowed full launch release date
Avowed's full launch date is on Tuesday, February 18, likely at 10 am Pacific. Since its Steam store launch for advance access lines up with a common Steam store unlock time, we should be able to assume the same will apply to its full launch date on the 18th.
Here's how that breaks down in other time zones:
- 10 am PST, February 18 (Los Angeles)
- 1 pm EST, February 18 (New York)
- 6 pm GMT, February 18 (London)
- 7 pm CEST, February 18 (Berlin)
- 5 am, February 19 (AEDT)
- 7 am, February 19 (NZDT)
Avowed advanced access unlock time
Premium Edition players got "advance access" to Avowed beginning at 10 am Pacific on Thursday, February 13.
To play Avowed before its main launch date of February 18, you'll need to have put down $90 on a preorder of its premium edition to play five days early. Obsidian did finally reveal specific launch times for Avowed a few hours ahead of the advance access period to [[link]] confirm the timing we'd been expecting.

The progressive jackpots are thrilling, and it's exciting to watch the jackpot amounts grow as more players spin the reels. I hope they add even more jackpot slots because it adds a lot of excitement to the gameplay. I love the overall aesthetic of the platform. The animations, visual effects, and sound design make the gaming experience more dynamic and immersive. It's one of the reasons I keep coming back.
