Xbox Delays Release of Highly Anticipated RPG Avowed to February 18, 2025

Xbox has rescheduled the release of the fantasy RPG Avowed to February 18, 2025. The decision was made to give gamers more time to clear their backlog before diving into this highly anticipated game. Xbox will be showcasing new gameplay footage of Avowed at the upcoming Gamescom trade show in Cologne.

The announcement was made by Xbox on their official website. It remains unclear whether the delay is being used to make improvements or iron out any bugs in the game. This news comes after reports from The Verge journalist Tom Warren hinted at a potential delay to early 2025.

Developed by Obsidian, Avowed is set in the world of Eora, reminiscent of the Pillars of Eternity series. The game boasts an expansive open world, surpassing the size of Skyrim, complete with numerous major cities. Players can expect a diverse combat system and a dynamic world that reacts to magical spells cast by the player. Obsidian emphasizes the importance of player choices in shaping the narrative of the game.
