Obsidian revealed more information about its upcoming game, Avowed, at today’s Xbox Developer Direct. In particular, it revealed more about the gameplay, story and location. It also gave us a release window: Avowed launches in fall 2024 for PC, Xbox Series X/S and Game Pass.
The gameplay trailer was a mix of combat and story interactions, as well as glimpses of the game world, called The Living Lands. Avowed follows the main character’s quest to stop a plague on The Living Lands and discovering a secret along the way. Obsidian showed several moments of combat gameplay, which it says is a combination of magic, melee attacks and ranged weaponry, and players can quickly swap out their loadouts.
