Everything We Know About Avowed
Avowed Story Plot
Set in the world of Eora, the same world as Obsidian Studio’s Pillars of Eternity franchise, Avowed follows you, an envoy of Aedyr. You’re investigating a spreading plague and eventually find out the deeper, darker truth – a long-forgotten secret along with the land itself threatening to tear the world apart. You must use your powers to save the land, and yourself.
Avowed Gameplay
In Avowed, you will have access to multiple weapons and spells at the same time. You may wield your weapon in your right hand, be it a sword, a shield, a gun, or a bow, and have your left hand cast spells for support or be the main line of attack.
Foes everywhere will be no match for your spells, as they can be decimated by a huge fireball, be frozen in place, entangled into the ground by roots, shocked by harnessed electricity, or be lifted by a gravitational orb.
