Will Avowed be on PC?
Avowed, like most of the other recently released Xbox first-party exclusives like Forza Motorsport, Starfield, and Hi-Fi Rush, is coming to PC right after Xbox Series X|S. As of writing, details regarding the PC release, such as the official system requirements, file size, and more for Obsidian's upcoming fantasy role-playing game, are scarce.
However, given the game is a current-gen exclusive and is built using Unreal Engine 5, it's bound to come packed with some hefty system requirements, as is evident by most current-gen UE5 titles. As for the potential file size, the game can be speculated to command somewhere around 100 GBs, considering its scope as an open-world RPG.
100 gigabytes has become a common figure for most AAA open-world titles, especially those built using either Unreal Engine 4 or Unreal Engine 5. While Obsidian is known for titles like Fallout New Vegas and, most recently, The Outer Worlds, both are RPGs with a more grounded albeit fictional setting.
As such, Avowed is a completely new realm for Obsidian, given it marks the studio's first foray into the fantasy RPG territory. However, if the recent gameplay trailers are any indication, the game seems to be shaping up quite well as a fun and engaging fantasy RPG experience, complete with a robust combat system and plenty of customization options.
Xbox and Obsidian Entertainment have promised to reveal more details regarding the game and its PC version as we approach its release period this year.
