Just one month following its release, including its availability on Game Pass, Obsidian and Xbox Game Studios have unveiled an exciting new trailer for Avowed. This trailer is a celebration of the game's achievements, showcasing a curated selection of glowing reviews and insightful quotes from leading gaming journalists. These testimonials highlight the overwhelmingly positive reception that the action-RPG has enjoyed since its launch.
The latest update for Avowed brings significant enhancements, including the integration of DLSS 4. This update introduces Multi Frame Generation, Super Resolution, and DLAA, all of which dramatically boost the game's performance. NVIDIA has demonstrated that these technologies can achieve up to a threefold increase in frame rates at maximum 4K settings, pushing performance to an impressive 340 FPS. Additionally, the developers have teased upcoming announcements regarding the game's future support and roadmap, promising more exciting developments in the coming weeks.
This update is not solely focused on technical improvements; it also significantly enhances the player experience. Players will now earn an additional talent point every five levels, and those who have already progressed in the game will automatically receive these points upon loading. For keyboard and mouse users, a new feature allows toggling between walking and running, improving gameplay fluidity. Furthermore, a new accessibility option has been added, which increases font sizes across documents, guides, and other in-game text, making the game more accessible to a broader audience.
While Avowed has not left critics completely speechless, it has still managed to secure strong reviews across the board. Notably, Digital Foundry has hailed the game as a technical "triumph," further cementing its status as a standout title from Obsidian. This accolade underscores the game's success and the high-quality experience it offers to players.
