EVERSPACE 2: Titans Q&A – ROCKFISH Talks About the Upcoming DLC and More

EVERSPACE 2 developer ROCKFISH Games, being headquartered in Hamburg, couldn't very well pass up on the Cologne-based Gamescom, especially since they've got the Titans DLC coming up soon. Due to launch on September 16 across all platforms (PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X) for a price tag of $15, this is the first story DLC for the space combat game that was fully released in 2023. I caught up with ROCKFISH Games CEO and Co-Founder Michael Schade and Communications Manager Lee Guille to learn more about EVERSPACE 2: Titans and to discuss various aspects of the industry, from their […]

Obsidian CEO Would Love to Make a Shadowrun Game

Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart was just featured in an hour-long interview with YouTube channel Limit Break Network. When asked which Xbox IP he'd like to tackle if given the chance, Urquhart singled out Shadowrun. I love Shadowrun. I think it's super cool. Within, like, two months of Obsidian getting acquired I asked for the list. It's just a spreadsheet. I think I got the latest version and I looked through all the stuff. I mean, there's a lot of stuff on there. It's been a while since I looked at it, but it's a pretty incredible thing, and now […]

9 Games That Were Supposed To Come Out This Year But Were Delayed To 2025

Video game release dates are more a suggestion than a promise these days, and understandably so. Making games is hard and audiences have never been busier and more fickle. Still, it’s disappointing when you find out that sci-fi shooter or fantasy adven...

Avowed Officially Delayed to February 18, 2025; New Live Stream Set for August 23

A couple of days ago, The Verge's Tom Warren reported hearing that Avowed would suffer a small delay to give it more breathing room from an otherwise busy Fall game release schedule. A few hours ago, Xbox confirmed the news, revealing that the game is now set to launch on February 18, 2025. New gameplay for Avowed will be shown in a live stream scheduled for August 23. They also reminded players there are lots of games made by Microsoft-owned studios on the way. World of Warcraft: The War Within, the tenth expansion for Blizzard's premiere MMO, launches on August […]

A Famously Canceled Fallout Game Finds New Life As A Free Mod

Avowed Confirmed by Obsidian to Be Very Short for an RPG

We already knew that Avowed wouldn't be a Skyrim-like behemoth in size, but Game Director Carrie Patel from Obsidian clarified it's going to be fairly short in general for an RPG. Speaking to Game Informer, she said players can expect a similar length to the studio's previous game, the sci-fi The Outer Worlds. The best comparison for Avowed in terms of scope is The Outer Worlds. Players can expect a roughly similar experience, just like The Outer Worlds, depending on what kind of difficulty they play on, and how thoroughly they explore and invest inside content, versus just sticking to […]

Avowed Art Director Explains Why the Studio Went with a Vibrant, Colorful Style

When Obsidian Entertainment first unveiled Avowed with a CGI trailer in 2020, the game looked a lot like Skyrim in terms of the fairly dark, gritty art style. However, the 2023 gameplay reveal showed a different, more colorful artistic direction that initially didn't sit too well with some fans. Speaking to Screen Rant at Summer Game Fest, Obsidian Art Director Matt Hansen finally addressed the studio's aesthetic choice for Avowed. He also explained that players will experience a variety of biomes within the Living Lands. For me, I am a big fan of fantasy games and fantasy genre. I'm also […]

Bethesda Not ‘Rushing’ New Fallout Game, Planning More Expansions For Starfield

Avowed to Feature Third-Person Camera and Respec Option; Game Director Says It’s Looking Fantastic and Ready for 2024

Avowed was featured with a new story trailer at yesterday's Xbox Game Showcase 2024, and an Obsidian blog post briefly mentioned a November 12 release date before being corrected. However, the real meat in terms of new info came today via the latest special episode of the Official Xbox Podcast, which hosted Avowed Game Director Carrie Patel. She brought some new footage (though unfortunately it is only available in Full HD) and revealed plenty of new information, starting with the fact that the game will indeed feature a third-person camera option, in stark contrast to all the footage released so […]

Avowed Release Date Revealed by Obsidian’s Game Director, But Quickly Gets Pulled

Obsidian Entertainment has briefly mentioned the Avowed release date, but the mention was quickly scrubbed from existence. We finally received a new trailer for Obsidian's upcoming action RPG during yesterday's Xbox Showcase. Unfortunately, we still haven't gotten a release date for the title, which has many suggesting that a delay is likely. Interestingly enough, however, the official blog post that accompanied that new trailer mentioned an actual release date for the title, but the mention has since been removed from existence. Luckily, a cached sample of the blog still mentions the planned release date - November 12, 2024. We've included […]

Avowed Gets New Trailer, But Still Has no Final Release Date

Today, during the Xbox Games Showcase 2024, Obsidian Entertainment did not announce the release date for Avowed, its first-person action RPG for PC and Xbox Series S|X, which remains slated for a generic 2024 window. However, at least we got a new trailer. As you might recall, the game was first unveiled at the 2020 Showcase with a CGI teaser trailer highly reminiscent of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, which showed a darker art style and dual wielding of spells and weapons. Indeed, it looks like that was the original pitch made by Obsidian, but the project went through a […]

Samsung has been reported on multiple occasions to introduce a design change with the Galaxy S25 Ultra launch, with the flagship said to feature rounded corners instead of sharp ones, resembling the company’s Galaxy Note 7. However, it is one thing to check out an artist’s impression of the smartphone and another to view an actual render, and we are happy to mention that an official image has come out, but there is a catch. The notable leakster responsible for showcasing the Galaxy S25 Ultra to his fans has blurred it out unless his financial target is met. Donation goal from […]
