According to a new rumor, Avowed could be targeting a Q2 2024 release window. Obsidian Entertainment's first-person action-RPG Avowed was one of the first next-gen only games revealed for the Xbox Series X, but not much has been seen of the game since its initial announcement trailer. With so little revealed about Avowed since its announcement, fans may not be surprised to learn that the game will apparently not come out until 2024 at the earliest.
While there have been leaked Avowed screenshots showing the game in action, fans have otherwise not seen anything about it since the initial reveal trailer, which debuted nearly three years ago at this point. Xbox fans keep their fingers crossed that they will get to see more of Avowed at every big show, but the events come and go with no sign of the highly-anticipated action-RPG.
Now Spanish YouTuber eXtas1s, as pointed out by Alt Char, has claimed that Avowed is looking to release in Q2 of 2024. If this information is accurate, then that means Xbox fans still have quite a long wait ahead of them to get their hands on the game. Unfortunately, this also means that it's highly unlikely Avowed will make an appearance at the upcoming Xbox and Bethesda developer showcase that's scheduled to take place on January 25.
Xbox is hosting a developer showcase on January 25 to highlight some upcoming Xbox console exclusive games. Xbox fans will have to tune in to the event to see all of what's in store, but the event is expected to focus on games aiming for release in the first half of 2023, like co-op vampire shooter Redfall and the new Forza Motorsport game. While it's possible the event will have some surprises in store, it seems highly unlikely that Obsidian's Avowed will be a part of the presentation.
If Avowed does release in Q2 of 2024, then one would imagine that the game will make another appearance at some point later this year. Assuming Xbox plans on being at E3 2023, it would make sense to give the game it's big re-debut at the show. Alternatively, Xbox could use The Game Awards 2023 in December as a platform to show off Avowed again. Of course, this is all assuming that the Q2 2024 release window is accurate information. It's entirely possible that this info is incorrect, and if so, it may be an even longer wait for Xbox fans to see Avowed again.
Avowed is in development for PC and Xbox Series X.
