A few days ago, The Verge journalist Tom Warren reported that Obsidian and Microsoft were planning to push the release date of Avowed to 2025. Now this information has been officially confirmed. Xbox Game Studios announcedthat the release of Avowed is postponed to 2025. At the same time, the exact release date of the game was also announced.
Avowed is now scheduled to release on Xbox Series X | S and PC on February 18, 2025. In announcing the release date change, the Xbox team noted that they had too many games on their plate, so they decided to “give players a break” and move the RPG to 2025. Below, you can see the games planned for release from Xbox teams and close partners for 2024-2025.
Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer commented on the delay of Avowed to 2025:
We are proud of what the (Obsidian) team has accomplished with (Avowed) and want to make sure they have the best launch possible. We look forward to you enjoying this project along with the rest of our games and updates coming this year and beyond.
At Gamescom 2024 in August, they promise to tell more about the game Avowed and show new gameplay footage.
