Avowed Gears Up for Launch: Inside the Deep Dive Reveal

Avowed receives an extensive Deep Dive packed with added content. Prior to the commencement of the Xbox Games Showcase on Sunday, it was revealed that Microsoft intended to present detailed explorations for several showcased games. Avowed is among them, offering a comprehensive Deep Dive that includes a wealth of gameplay footage and insightful details.

Notably, players will have the option to experience Avowed from a third-person perspective, a choice until now not demonstrated, as gameplay footage predominantly showcased a first-person view. Those familiar with Obsidian’s repertoire, including titles like The Outer Worlds, might not find this option surprising, yet its confirmation remains a pleasing detail.

The game is reportedly nearing completion, with Obsidian focusing on final optimizations, suggesting a low likelihood of launch delays. The Deep Dive further reveals an in-depth look at Avowed’s adaptable combat mechanisms, extensive dialogue choices, detailed skill trees, the broad spectrum of player decisions, and a system for categorizing equipment, among other features.

In essence, anyone keen on delving into details about Obsidian’s upcoming RPG should certainly watch this. Though the precise launch date is still murky (speculation points towards November), it's definite that Avowed will be accessible on PC and Xbox Series S/X through Game Pass.
