Obsidian's Avowed: Xbox Series X Performance Confirmed

Avowed, Obsidian Entertainment's highly anticipated RPG, will achieve a frame rate of up to 60 frames per second (fps) on the Xbox Series X, according to game director Carrie Patel in a MinnMax interview. While she didn't elaborate on specifics, the confirmation clarifies previous reports. The Xbox Series S version, as previously announced, will remain capped at 30fps.

Whether Avowed will offer selectable performance and graphics modes (60fps with lower visuals vs. 30fps with enhanced visuals) remains unconfirmed. It's unclear if the 60fps target on the Series X is the default setting or requires a specific mode selection.

Avowed's release date features a staggered rollout based on edition pricing. The premium edition, priced at $89.99, grants early access beginning February 13th. The standard edition ($69.99) launches on February 18th, reflecting a recent industry trend that some publishers, like Ubisoft, have already abandoned.

Set within the Pillars of Eternity universe, Avowed is a first-person fantasy RPG emphasizing player choice and agency. Players will navigate a world steeped in war, mystery, and intrigue, forming alliances and rivalries that shape the narrative. IGN's final preview lauded the game's engaging conversations, player freedom, and overall enjoyable experience, describing it as "just a lot of fun."
