Avowed Celebrates First Month with Major Update and Enhanced Features

Just one month after its release and Game Pass debut, Obsidian and Xbox Game Studios released a new trailer celebrating Avowed. The video highlights the overwhelmingly positive critical reception of this action-RPG, showcasing select reviews and quotes from gaming journalists.

This latest update introduces DLSS 4 support, including Multi-Frame Generation, Super Resolution, and DLAA. These advancements significantly boost performance; NVIDIA showcased up to a three-fold increase in frame rates at maximum 4K settings, reaching an impressive 340 FPS. The developers also hinted at upcoming announcements regarding future game support and a content roadmap in the coming weeks.

Beyond the technical enhancements, this update also improves the player experience. Players now earn an extra talent point every five levels, with retroactive awards for existing players upon game launch. Keyboard and mouse users gain the ability to toggle between walking and running, and a new accessibility option allows for increased font sizes in in-game text, documents, and guides.

While Avowed didn't achieve universal, perfect scores, it still received overwhelmingly strong reviews. Digital Foundry even lauded the game as a technical "triumph," further solidifying its position as a remarkable achievement from Obsidian.
