It’s looking very far along!

Avowed is proving to be one of Xbox’s big stars for Gamescom 2024 – it’s getting lots of air time through various previews, interviews and demo sessions. And, to cap this year’s event off, Microsoft has shown absolutely loads of new gameplay to fans as part of its final daily livestream at the 2024 convention.
Up above, you can feast your eyes on a mammoth gameplay demo from Obsidian’s upcoming Xbox RPG. To make things better, it’s an extended section of the game, giving us all a better idea of what Avowed will actually look and feel like to play in February 2025.
We get a good look at most aspects of the game here, including combat, exploration, dialogue choices, story missions and everything in between. It’s all looking very far along for a pre-launch look – we’re starting to believe that the game was delayed to avoid a busy holiday season now; as Microsoft said earlier this month!
Of course, there’s also been some controversy surrounding this particular Xbox release today. In short, the team at Obsidian has confirmed that the game is aiming for a 30FPS frame rate target on Xbox Series X|S at launch – a target that some fans are still getting to grips with as Gamescom 2024 comes to a close.
RPG fans, what do you think to the look of this Avowed demo? Drop your thoughts on the extended look down below.
