Xbox has graciously alleviated a few of the mounting strain as we head into the ultimate months of 2024, delaying Avowed till early subsequent 12 months. Avowed is now set to launch on February 18, 2025.
Although it is a disgrace that we’ll have to attend a bit longer to play Obsidian Leisure’s motion RPG, this does imply the already crowded fall line-up of video games is a tad extra manageable and simpler on the pockets. As an alternative of Avowed competing towards the likes of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Metaphor: ReFantazio, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows this vacation season, it would launch through the (at present) sparser begin of 2025.
So many video games coming! As such, we’re shifting Avowed to Feb 18, 2025 to present gamers’ backlogs some respiratory room.
Keep tuned for extra from our video games throughout Activision, Blizzard, Bethesda & Xbox Sport Studios at gamescom, together with our Aug 23 livestream for a take a look at Avowed:… pic.twitter.com/3RnyVwlHRa— Xbox (@Xbox) August 2, 2024
Within the announcement of the delay, Xbox teased that extra particulars for video games throughout the corporate’s portfolio–including Activision, Blizzard, and Bethesda titles–will be revealed throughout gamescom. Avowed will even be the first focus of Xbox’s deliberate livestream for August 23, once we’ll see extra of the upcoming motion RPG.
To date, Avowed is trying an entire lot like Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds, albeit way more fantastical than sci-fi. The sport might be performed in both first- or third-person, options recruitable NPCs and choice-driven dialogue, and incorporates melee weapons, firearms, and magic in its fight. The sport is about to launch for Xbox Collection X|S and PC.
