In case you missed it, Obsidian Entertainment’sAvowed is out now for Xbox Series X/S and PC alongside Game Pass. It’s received positive praise from critics, which you can check out in the accolades trailer below.
Though based in Eora, the same setting as Pillars of Eternity 1 and 2, Avowed whisks players away to the Living Lands to experience a new tale. As an Envoy of the Aedyran Empire meant to investigate the Dream Scourge plague, how your journey progresses is entirely up to you. There are multiple factions to potentially ally with, each with separate motives regarding the plague and various endings depending on your decisions.
