#Avowed video game update#

However, the report speculates we may see an update for the game as early as The Game Awards this year, if not next year's E3 event. The footage seen by Windows Central was from a pre-alpha build of the game, so there is plenty of room for change. The environments will also be destructible, using fire to burn down blocked entryways, for instance. Unlike Skyrim, Avowed will reportedly have a more colourful visual palette, with luminescent caves, verdant forests and neon effects. Fans may even recognise enemies, from the lizard-like Xaurips to deadly drakes.

Play hundreds of high-quality games with friends, plus enjoy Xbox Live Gold and an EA Play membership, all for one low monthly price. Spells like the lightning based Jolting Touch and two-handed Fireball are present, conjured using complex hand gestures, and status effects like Fetid Caress also feature. The bare minimum you need is an Intel Core i3-3225 or AMD. Those magic attacks take a leaf out of Pillars of Eternity's book. However, if we’re going by games of today’s standards, we imagine that Avowed would have similar requirements as The Outer Worlds. Warriors will have access to physical attacks, while casters can customise their combat style using spellbook options and magic bound to specific buttons. The report states that combat seems 'more loadout-based' than Skyrim. That means dual-wielding weapons and spells for potent attacks, or equipping a mixture of the two. The report suggests that, if The Outer Worlds was the studio's take on Fallout, then Avowed is their take on The Elder Scrolls in both its fantasy setting and combat.Īvowed will feature two handed combat and multiple classes, seemingly borrowed from Skyrim.
