About the game:
Welcome to the Living Lands, a mysterious island full of adventure and danger. Set in the fictional world of Eora, first introduced in the Pillars of Eternity franchise, Avowed is a first-person action RPG from the award-winning team at Obsidian Entertainment. You are the envoy of Aedyr, a distant land, sent to investigate rumors of a plague spreading across the Living Lands, an island full of mysteries and secrets, dangers and adventures, choices and consequences, and untamed wilderness. You discover a personal connection to the Living Lands and an ancient secret that threatens to destroy everything. Can you save this unknown frontier and your soul from the forces that threaten to tear them apart?
The Living Lands: Strange and Wonderful:
The Living Lands are a place that feels foreign but somewhat intrinsic to you, as it feels like the island itself is calling out to you for help. Explore an island that is home to many different environments and landscapes, each with its own unique ecosystem.
Visceral Combat Your Way:
Combine swords, spells, firearms and shields to fight your way. Dive into your grimoire for spells to trap, freeze or burn enemies, hit them with your shield or use long-range bows.
Companions as Part of your Journey:
Companions of various species will fight alongside you, each with their own unique set of skills. From a former mercenary to an eccentric wizard, they will be part of your journey, and your choices will shape them as you help them on their quests.
Avowed promises to immerse players in a world filled with magic, strategic combat, and meaningful decisions as they explore the intrigues of the Living Lands.
