Obsidian Reveals Declared Xbox Series X RPG Set in Pillars of Eternity World


As promised, Microsoft highlighted a ton of Xbox Series X games during last week’s Xbox event live stream. One of the most intriguing revelations was Avowed, a new RPG for Fallout: New Vegas, and Outer Worlds developer Obsidian Entertainment.

Avowed is advertised as an “epic first-person RPG” that takes place in an original fantasy world called Eora. Obsidian told Xbox, after being acquired in November 2018, that the studio wanted to work on a great role-playing epic in the way that Obsidian only knows how. Although the study did not provide any other details about the game, and although there was no disclosure of the game, Avowed will launch on Windows 10 and Xbox Series X PCs. If it doesn’t launch on Xbox One and Microsoft sticks to its plan to not launch Exclusive to the Xbox Series X console for about two years, that means we probably won’t be playing Avowed for a long time. However, this plan could certainly change.

It’s worth mentioning that, with Avowed set in the world of Eora, first-person RPG takes place in the same world as the Pillars of Eternity franchise. Although Obsidian didn’t explicitly mention it during the live stream, Avowed may share some DNA with the studio’s isometric role-playing game. More details about Avowed will be revealed “later,” said Mikey Dowling, director of communications for Obsidian.

Avowed isn’t the only game Obsidian is working on: As Microsoft previously revealed, the studio is also releasing Grounded, a Honey I Shrunk The Kids-style survival game in which up to four players team up to explore a backyard and Fight to survive against the giant and hostile insects that live in the grass. Ground releases on Xbox One and PC next week, July 28.
