The previews shared by journalist Tom Warren regarding the imminent announcement of the postponement of Avowed to early 2025 are confirmed by Microsoft: the ambitious role-playing adventure of Obsidian Entertainment will have to wait until the early months of the new year.
With the eloquent message you find at the bottom of the news, the curators of the Xbox team’s social profiles inform us that the next interactive fantasy-tinged experience from the authors of Fallout New Vegas, The Outer Worlds, Pillars of Eternity and Grounded will officially see the light on February 18, 2025 on PC and Xbox Series X|S, with immediate entry into the Game Pass catalog.
As for the reasons given by the Redmond company to justify the postponement of the commercialization of Avowed to early 2025, it is the same star-spangled technological giant that explains that “there are a lot of first-party games coming between now and the end of the year! Therefore, we have decided to move the launch of Avowed to February 2025 to give players and your backlog some breathing room”.
Accompanying the announcement of the postponement of Avowed to February 18th is also the confirmation of a new, important live streaming event that Obsidian will hold starting at 3:00 PM Italian time on August 23rd as part of the activities and surprises promised by Microsoft and the Xbox team for GamesCom 2024.
