Obsidian Entertainment
Avowed has been delayed all the way to February 2025
In an effort to ‘give players’ backlogs some breathing room’, Xbox has officially announced a delay for Obsidian’s upcoming action RPG, Avowed.
After some rumors starter rumbling around the internet a few days ago, Xbox has officially announced that Avowed has been delayed from its original release window of 2024 to February 18, 2025.
This was revealed through Xbox’s official Twitter/X account, in which they shared their choice to “give players’ backlogs some breathing room” due to their many upcoming releases. This revelation was accompanied by a call for players to tune in to Gamescom this month, as they plan to share new information about games from Activision, Blizzard, Bethesda & other Xbox Game Studios, including a deep dive of Avowed on August 23.
Phil Spencer, CEO of Microsoft Gaming and one of the main faces behind the Xbox brand, retweeted the news by saying: “We’re proud of what the [Obsidian Entertainment] team have accomplished with [Avowed] and want to make sure they have the best launch possible. We look forward to you enjoying it along with the rest of our lineup of games and updates coming this year and beyond.”
Obsidian’s Avowed is one of the most highly-awaited Xbox releases in years
There is no denying that Avowed has been one of our most expected titles from Xbox in a long time. Obsidian Entertainment’s last three games have won over critics around the world. In addition to the fantastic Pillars of Eternity 2, the creators of Fallout: New Vegas won over gamers with The Outer Worlds, a game published by Private Division. In true Fallout style, the script splashes words with political satire and covers them with a striking space setting. The studio is working on a sequel, about which we know very little. On the other hand, and not to be outdone by the narrative component, Obsidian has released Pentiment, an adventure that oozes talent on all four sides.
