Yes, you can pre-order End of Abyss now on the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store and Epic Games Store, all at $29.99. PS Plus members pay $26.99 until launch, and buying on the Epic Games Store (including pre-purchases) adds the free Cel Outfit to Fortnite on October 1 at 8 PM ET. No deluxe or physical edition has been announced.
Where to pre-order and what it costs
Pre-orders are open on all three digital storefronts until the October 1, 2026 launch. The base price is the same everywhere; only the extras differ.
| Store | Price | Pre-order extra |
|---|---|---|
| PlayStation Store (PS5) | $29.99, or $26.99 with PS Plus | 10% PS Plus discount until launch |
| Xbox Store (Series X|S) | $29.99 | None announced |
| Epic Games Store (PC) | $29.99 | Free Cel Outfit in Fortnite |
Links to each official store are on the homepage. On the PlayStation Store, a pre-order is charged immediately.
Which editions are available?
Only one edition exists: the standard game at $29.99. There is no confirmed deluxe edition, collector's edition or physical release. Game8 and the publisher press release both mention no special editions.
Some retailer pages show a PS5 product, but no boxed release has been confirmed by the developer or publisher. See PS5 physical edition before buying from a retailer.
PS Plus pre-order discount
PlayStation Plus members get 10% off on the PlayStation Store, paying $26.99 instead of $29.99. The discount runs until October 1, 2026, according to the store listing and Game8.
The Fortnite Cel Outfit bonus
Epic Games announced the Cel Outfit for Fortnite as a gift with purchase of End of Abyss on the Epic Games Store. TheClick.gg notes that purchase date does not matter, so both pre-purchases and purchases after release qualify. It is the main reason to pre-order on Epic.
| Detail | Confirmed rule |
|---|---|
| When it arrives | October 1, 2026 at 8 PM ET (1 AM BST, Oct 2) |
| Who gets it | Anyone who buys End of Abyss on the Epic Games Store |
| Without buying the game | 1,500 V-Bucks in the Item Shop, leaving around mid-October |
| If you already own it | You receive 1,500 V-Bucks instead |
| If you refund the game | The outfit is removed |
| Platforms | Tied to your Epic account, so it works wherever you play Fortnite |
Beebom describes the outfit as matching Cel's in-game look, with her futuristic diving suit and round diving helmet. Gifting the game also gives the recipient the outfit, according to TheClick.gg.
Pre-order timeline
The key dates are close together, so it helps to see them in order. All times below are from the store listings and the Fortnite announcement coverage.
| Date | What happens |
|---|---|
| Now until Oct 1 | Pre-orders open; PS Plus 10% discount active |
| Oct 1, 12:00 UTC | End of Abyss unlocks on all platforms |
| Oct 1, 8 PM ET | Cel Outfit lands in Epic buyers' Fortnite lockers and the Item Shop |
| Around mid-October | Cel Outfit expected to leave the Fortnite Item Shop |
Buying after launch on Epic still grants the outfit, so the Fortnite bonus is not a reason to rush. The PS Plus discount, however, ends on launch day.
Which store should you pre-order from?
The game is the same on every platform, so choose based on where you play. PS5 players with PS Plus get the lowest price. PC players can only buy on the Epic Games Store, which comes with the Fortnite outfit.
Xbox Series X|S players pay the standard $29.99 with no announced extra. The game is not on Game Pass, per Game8.
Should you pre-order?
Pre-order bonuses are small: a PS Plus discount or a Fortnite outfit. There are no review scores yet, since the game has not been released. Hands-on previews from GameSpot, Game Informer, VDGMS and MonsterVine have been consistently positive, but they only covered short demos.
Mediadrop's pre-release verdict was a buy with a qualifier, based on the available evidence. If you want certainty, the review page will track scores from launch day.
