Color me shocked and name me Barney, Avowed has been introduced for PS5. In truth, it’s coming fairly quickly.
Introduced in a brief video interview on the New Sport+ 2026 showcase, a brand new yearly occasion, Avowed will launch in February seventeenth on PS5 and PS5 Professional, round a yr after it first launched on Xbox and PC.
Because it has been a yr, the PS5 model will include all of the updates that Obsidian have put out, like reworked Ranger and Fighter ability timber, a greater UI and extra.
However that’s not all, as a result of a significant replace may even be launched alongside the PS5 launch for all variations of the sport, including in new options comparable to New Sport+, the power to play as non-human characters comparable to a hulking Amauan or a furry little Orlan. A third particular person view can be being added into the combination.
Avowed landed with a muted thud a yr in the past. Preliminary opinions had been lukewarm and other people appeared ambivalent to its existence. I performed a superb chunk of it by way of Sport Go and thought it was first rate earlier than different issues dragged me away, and I all the time meant to return. A PS5 launch ought to present a superb excuse to try this, and I’m intrigued by the brand new options, though I don’t assume they’ll have the ability to fight the sport’s core flaws – characters and story.
