However, this may stick in the craw of those who shelled out full-price for the game less than a year ago.<\/p>\n<div class=\"for-mobile\">\n<figure class=\"youtube with-primis\" data-videoid=\"y-XGB8_bQ3s\" data-start=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/y-XGB8_bQ3s?rel=0&amp;hd=1&amp;showinfo=0&amp;modestbranding=0&amp;autohide=1\">\n<div class=\"video-stage\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Top 10 Best PS5 Games Of 2024 (So Far) | PlayStation 5\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/y-XGB8_bQ3s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"youtube-sub\">Subscribe to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\">Push Square<\/a> on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"sub-button external\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\"><span class=\"subs-label\">YouTube<\/span><span class=\"subs\">167k<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>A Premium Edition is also available on the <strong>PS Store<\/strong> for $59.99, which includes a digital artbook and soundtrack, two player armours, and eight companion skins. There\u2019s a $10 upgrade available if you want to purchase this at a later date.<\/p>\n<p>Said Premium Edition cost a whopping $89.99 when the game first launched last year, so that represents an even bigger saving at this stage in the title\u2019s lifecycle. As above, all prices have now been been adjusted across <em>all<\/em> systems to match the PS5 pricing.<\/p>\n<p>Avowed was a minor hit upon its original release, attracting an <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.metacritic.com\/game\/avowed\/\">80 Metacritic rating<\/a> and some fan acclaim. But Microsoft will be hoping this PS5 port \u2013 along with its adjusted price point \u2013 will help the game reach a much larger audience this time around.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:pushsquare.com\/ssl\/ps5\/related-articles:196015 @ 1768205365 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\">\n<header class=\"widget-header\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_Articles\"><\/span>Related Articles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"body\">\n<div class=\"object-related-list\">\n<article class=\"object-related-article\">\n<p class=\"object-related-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/4e6bac8d2ec24\/150x90.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"90\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Xbox Exclusive RPG Avowed Is Coming to PS5 in February with Major New Features\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"object-related-info\">\n<h3 class=\"heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"News_Xbox_Exclusive_RPG_Avowed_Is_Coming_to_PS5_in_February_with_Major_New_Features\"><\/span><span class=\"category accent\">News<\/span> <span class=\"title\">Xbox Exclusive RPG Avowed Is Coming to PS5 in February with Major New Features<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"tagline\">A-wowed<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article><\/div>\n<p class=\"text source\">[source <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\" title=\"External Link: https:\/\/store.playstation.com\/en-us\/product\/UP6312-PPSA26136_00-0827146390058176\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/store.playstation.com\/en-us\/product\/UP6312-PPSA26136_00-0827146390058176\">store.playstation.com<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:pushsquare.com\/ssl\/ps5\/related-info\/a9fcc7e1d4a442cc6892fba1fc242ee6 @ 1768205866 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"see-also\">\n<dl>\n<dt>Related Games<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"first\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\" first last\"><strong>Avowed<\/strong> (PS5)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>See Also<\/dt>\n<dd class=\"first\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\" first last\">The Best PS5 Games (2025)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<section class=\"footer\">\n<ul class=\"share-this \">\n<li class=\" first\">Share:<\/li>\n<li class=\"value\"><span class=\"accent-bg share-count\">0<\/span><span class=\"icon icon-caret-right accent\"><\/span><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page whatsapp accent\" title=\"Share this on WhatsApp\" data-service=\"whatsapp\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-whatsapp\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page bsky accent\" title=\"Share this on Bluesky\" data-service=\"bsky\" data-username=\"pushsquare.com\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-bsky\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page facebook accent\" title=\"Share this on Facebook\" data-service=\"facebook\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-facebook\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page twitter accent\" title=\"Share this on Twitter\" data-service=\"twitter\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-twitter\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page threads accent\" title=\"Share this on Threads\" data-service=\"threads\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-threads\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page messenger accent for-mobile\" title=\"Share this on Facebook Messenger\" data-service=\"fbmessenger\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-messenger\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\" last\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-share-page reddit accent for-desktop\" title=\"Share this on Reddit\" data-service=\"reddit\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"icon icon-reddit\"><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"article-stats\" data-article-id=\"196076\" data-comments=\"12\" data-shares=\"0\" data-likes=\"2\">\n<li class=\" first\">2<\/li>\n<li class=\" last\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ui-comments accent icon icon-comments\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"news\/2026\/01\/xboxs-avowed-will-be-usd20-cheaper-when-it-launches-on-ps5#comments\">12<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"insert soft-bg below-article for-mobile insert-extended lazyload\">\n<div id=\"PS_MPU_X_P6964B52843BF1\" style=\"min-width:300px;
