by

Summary

  • Avowed preloading open; full file size 74.77GB.
  • Features Eora setting and new first-person perspective.
  • Excitement high for game among RPG fans, potential for more Eora-based games.

Pre-loading of the upcoming role-playing game “Avowed,” developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Microsoft, has commenced. This confirms the game’s complete file size and storage needs ahead of its launch. The game is set to release on February 18, 2025, and will be available for both Xbox Series X|S and PC systems.

For enthusiasts of role-playing games (RPGs) or anyone seeking an immersive new fantasy realm to explore, the upcoming game “Avowed” is definitely worth keeping an eye on. Notably, this game hails from a studio known for iconic RPGs such as “Fallout New Vegas” and “Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2“, and it’s set in Eora, the universe of Obsidian’s “Pillars of Eternity” series. As the first game set in Eora since the 2018 release of “Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire“, “Avowed” could potentially kick off a new wave of Eora-themed games if it proves successful. Additionally, this game is deviating from the party-based system used in previous “Pillars” titles by adopting a full first-person perspective and focusing on combat mechanics instead.

As the anticipation builds towards the launch and the approaching pre-order period for early access of “Avowed”, Microsoft and Obsidian have allowed preloading of the game. The downloads have revealed that the final file size of “Avowed” upon release will be approximately 74.77 GB. Those with an active Xbox Game Pass or PC Game Pass subscription, as well as those who pre-ordered on other platforms, can now start downloading the game files. These files will become accessible to play once they’re ready, whether it’s during the early access period starting February 13, 2025, or at the official release date of February 18.

Avowed File Size Confirmed As Preloading on Xbox and PC Opens

It appears that while many reports indicate a confirmed download size of approximately 74 GB for the game “Avowed”, there seems to be a slight difference in the download sizes experienced by users across different platforms like Steam and PC via the Xbox App. The reported sizes range from 71 GB to 73 GB. Microsoft has not yet clarified the reason for this discrepancy, but it’s important to note that the official system requirements for “Avowed” on the PC call for 75 GB of free space. Some users on social media argue that such variations are normal due to differences in how storage is measured across platforms. Others speculate that the preload file size might not be fully complete, with certain files being held back to prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing the game before its official release time.

Enthusiasm for the game, whether it’s about delving into the mysterious Eoran region of the Living Lands or experimenting with the unique class system found in Avowed, is soaring among both veterans and newcomers. Hopefully, this enthusiasm will lead to prosperity for Obsidian Entertainment and pave the way for more games set in the Pillars universe.
