Apr 8, 2026I haven’t played an Obsidian game in a long while, and I have to say that in terms of characters, storytelling, and worldbuilding, I felt right at home with everything that was happening throughout Avowed‘s modest runtime. Even with the uninspired combat and the performance issues, I found myself constantly wanting to explore the Living Lands, make potentially life-altering decisions that could affect the world, and steal Marius’ snacks for good measure. Avowed does a fabulous job of keeping players on their toes while also weaving stories that make players want to see everything through to the end. While Avowed has some blemishes, there is a lot to love in this world, and I want to see more of it.

Mar 5, 2026Avowed was already a pretty great action role-playing game when it arrived on Xbox platforms and PC last year, but its PlayStation 5 port is even better largely due to its excellent integration of the DualSense controller's adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. Coupled with an anniversary update absolutely brimming with fresh features and compelling content, the added immersion delivered through the gamepad easily makes this the best way to brave the Living Lands and battle the Dreamscourge.

Feb 26, 2026Avowed delivers an action RPG with dynamic combat, high build freedom, and charismatic companions that enrich the overall journey. Exploration across the Living Lands is rewarding and horizontal, though the title suffers from technical issues in third-person view and a lack of narrative impact from racial choices. Ultimately, it is an intriguing experience with multiple endings that exceeds initial expectations in its definitive PlayStation 5 version.
