Avowed: Obsidian's Ambitious Fantasy RPG with a Unique Twist
TL;DR
Avowed, the upcoming RPG from Obsidian, offers a gameplay experience reminiscent of the Elder Scrolls series, with a focus on player choice and character development. The game features a variety of combat options and a sprawling upgrade system, though companion control can be awkward. Despite its potential, Avowed faces a challenging release window alongside major titles like Civilization 7 and Assassin’s Creed Shadows. However, its availability on Game Pass may help it find an audience.
