They might reveal this along with a release date soon enough.Īs of now, the initial release date of the game has only been stated as 2022 and no particular date has been revealed. Now there are multiple games that Obsidian is working on but fans have speculated that Avowed is the game that Aaron was talking about.Īnd if we consider that Obsidian plans to make Avowed bigger than Skyrim, then it is pretty obvious that they will be using Unreal Engine 5. Obsidian’s lead VFX artist, Aaron Dubois stated that he was working with NiagaraFX tools in Unreal Engine 5. There will be branched dialogues and a day-night cycle inside the game. Not much was revealed about the gameplay of Avowed but some people found that some information about the game was revealed in the job listings demands for the development of the game.Īccording to the job listings by Obsidian for an AAA project, the game will utilize first-person animations as well as third-person animations. It was also revealed that the game will be set in the same world as Pillars of Eternity called Eora. From the reveal trailer, many speculated that the game will feature sword combat with magical powers based on runes. While these leaks align with what’s known about the game so far, as with all leaks they should be taken with a pinch of salt.A teaser was released by Obsidian which featured a first look at the game. The leak also claimed that Avowed’s game world integrate “world-reactivity,” in terms of lighting, physics, and AI, as well as a weather system which could hint at some survival mechanics being implemented in the game as well. Despite being in the far north, the Living Lands are said to be a place of man mountains and valleys, with huge biodiversity and many different kinds of biomes to explore. The leak claimed that the Living Lands would be “denser” and “more contrasted” than Skyrim, which fits into the lore. However, the leak may not in fact point to the Living Lands being literally larger than Skyrim, or size alone being the main focus of Obsidian’s efforts when it comes to making the world of Avowed feel big.

This leak claimed that Avowed will be a “fully open world, much much larger than Skyrim.” For reference, Skyrim’s world was around 14 square miles in size. One ResetEra user known as sponger leakd some information back in July, which should be taken with a grain of salt. The ruins of the Engwith machines and civilization still lie under all of Eora, and will very likely be found in Avowed. This proves true, with the goddess of justice, Woedica the Burned Queen, also being the power-hungry goddess of strict hierarchy. “Engwith built gods from ideals, and an ideal on its own is a grotesque and vicious thing,” says one in-game text from Pillars of Eternity. The Engwithans used machinery to turn thousands of souls into concentrated, singular ideals. The gods of Eora are not, in fact, actual gods, as they were created by an ancient kith civilization known as Engwith.

The races of Avowed vary greatly in height, which could cause problems for a first-person RPG like Avowed in a way that it didn’t for a isometric RPG like the Pillars of Eternity games.

This has led to a lot of speculation that these could be the playable races in Avowed, though there is one other consideration which may lead fans away from that conclusion. In Pillars of Eternity, players could choose to play as any one of these races, although this is not confirmed.
