Obsidian Announces Avowed Release Date, Then Scrubs It From Blog Post

Now you see it, now you don't. That's what happened on an Obsidian blog post for Avowed, the upcoming RPG from the studio. The developer apparently listed a November 12 release date for the game, then deleted any mention of a launch time.

On X (formerly known as Twitter), a user by the name of HazzadorGamin spotted the release date for Avowed on an Obsidian blog post. The website post was a complementary piece for Avowed getting its first story trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase over the weekend. The video focuses on three different people who will play a large role in your journeys in the Living Lands.

One of those voices is your companion, Giatta. The animancer believes there's more to the world of Avowed than you can see with your eyes alone.

Earlier this year, Avowed received a Fall 2024 launch window. The November 12 date would fit squarely in that timeframe, as autumn goes from September 22 to December 21 in North America. However, Microsoft and Obsidian are officially only listing this year for the arrival of Avowed currently.

Avowed was just one of the many games highlighted at the Xbox Games Showcase. Microsoft also revealed the release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages, and showed off the first gameplay trailer for Perfect Dark.
