The Outer Worlds 2 will open to premium edition buyers five days earlier than standard buyers and Game Pass players, with early access beginning October 24 at 12 AM ET, according to the PlayStation Store listing.
The premium edition is required for early entry. In the United States, it is listed at $99.99. If playing on Game Pass, players can purchase an upgrade to the premium edition for $29.99 without needing to buy the whole game.
Premium edition owners will also receive the Moon Man’s Corporate Appreciation Premium Prize Pack, two future DLC expansions at no extra charge, and a digital artbook and soundtrack. The additional content comes bundled with the premium edition, not as an early release for the DLC packs.
Official timing information is available on the PlayStation Store page for the premium edition. The store lists early access as starting October 24 at 12 AM ET.
