Avowed could have been Obsidian’s Redfall, with a Destiny plus Skyrim co-op multiplayer vision scrapped early in a grueling 6-year development
It’s been reported by Bloomberg that work on Avowed started back in 2018, even before Obsidian Entertainment was taken over by Microsoft. At some point, they tried to sell the concept of this game, focusing more on multiplayer elements, to other companies. Earlier rumors suggested that Avowed might have been Obsidian’s take on Skyrim at one time, but now we learn for the first time about a cooperative multiplayer aspect in this RPG, which Bloomberg compares to Destiny.
