While Obsidian is currently hard at work on its upcoming RPG Avowed, director Carrie Patel has revealed that developers who previously helped make Pillars of Eternity are on board. “Maybe a third of the team that worked on Pillars is on Avowed,” said Patel in an interview with MinnMax.
She also spoke about the studio successfully creating a more interactive, explorable take on the world first introduced in the Pillars of Eternity franchise.
According to Patel, Pillars fans want to “see the world they got to know over two games in a big immersive space around them that they can explore.” She went on to say that it’s “mission accomplished” when it comes to this goal.
Avowed is slated for release on February 18 for PC and Xbox Series X/S alongside Game Pass. In the same interview, Patel had also revealed that the game would run at “up to 60 FPS” on the Xbox Series X.
While further information was lacking, one can assume that it uses features like dynamic resolution tp ensure a stable frame rate.
