Avowed is Obsidian Entertainment's upcoming open-world RPG, set in the world of the studio's previous two epic fantasy titles, Pillars of Eternity and Pillars of Eternity: Deadfire, and steeped in its lore. Unlike those, though, Avowed will be a first-person real-time action RPG instead of an isometric top-down CRPG. As Obsidian is a much beloved and respected developer, known for its commitment to building rich worlds, engaging gameplay, and mature narratives, the anticipation for its next big game is understandably high.
