This informative video, easily accessible on the official Xbox YouTube channel, begins with Patel providing an articulate overview of why Avowed embodies the distinctive style synonymous with Obsidian titles.
As the video unfolds, it delves into various critical aspects of Avowed, shedding light on its intricate combat mechanics, weapon loadouts, crowd control dynamics, elemental damage system, branching dialogues, and the significant role played by companions.
This exploration of the game’s mechanics provides fans with a deeper understanding of what to expect when Avowed finally hits the gaming scene. Set against the backdrop of the same universe as Obsidian’s previous RPG, Pillars of Eternity, Avowed is slated for release in the fall of 2024.
Feargus Urquhart, the head of Obsidian Studios, shared his enthusiasm for Avowed, stating, “Expanding the universe that we created for the original Pillars of Eternity games, Avowed brings a new perspective, a new way to fight, and a new land to explore in the world of Eora.”
Urquhart’s excitement about sharing Avowed with the audience is palpable, with a particular emphasis on the Living Lands—a plagued and wild island that serves as a central setting for exploration.
This island is promised to be teeming with mysteries, secrets, danger, adventure, and impactful choices, making Avowed a highly anticipated addition to the RPG landscape. Fans can eagerly anticipate immersing themselves in this captivating world when Avowed finally arrives later this year.
