The Microsoft team announced that it is moving the release date of the long-awaited role-playing game Avowed from 2024 to 2025. They immediately named the exact release date of the project – February 18, 2025, on this day the game will be available on Xbox Series X | S and PC, plus in the Game Pass subscription.
The game was postponed due to an overabundance of games in the fall of 2024. Xbox teams are preparing many new products, both game releases and DLC, plus partners are planning to release their AAA projects in the fall, many of which are long-awaited: like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 or Assassin’s Creed Shadows. To give players time for all the projects they want to play, the release of Avowed was postponed.

Age of Mythology remake – September 4, 2024. New strategy ARA History Untold – September 24, 2024. The expected shooter Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 – October 25, 2024.
