Even though we don\u2019t know exactly when the game is coming out, we do have plenty of details. Here\u2019s everything we know about multiplayer in Avowed. Will Avowed have co-op multiplayer? No, Avowed will (probably) not have co-op multiplayer. According to Obsidian\u2019s 20th Anniversary documentary, the game was initially supposed to have multiplayer, but the team ultimately decided to make it a single-player game instead.\u00a0\u00a0 Why won't co-op multiplayer be possible in Avowed? According to the documentary, when the idea for Avowed was pitched to the publisher, the concept of multiplayer added a lot of value to the project. During early development, multiplayer was heavily pushed. But head of development Justin Britch decided the team should focus on what they know best, which is making single-player games. \u201cOne of the things where I really pushed was that Avowed was going to be multiplayer, and I kept on that for a long time,\u201d says Justin Britch.\u00a0 Obsidian is no stranger to making co-op multiplayer games. Games like Grounded and Neverwinter Nights 2 had decent multiplayer mechanics and were critically well-received. But Obsidian is best known for its single-player games like The Outer Worlds, Pillars of Eternity, and especially Fallout: New Vegas, so making Avowed a single-player-only game makes more sense in the long run.\u00a0 Will Avowed have multiplayer post-launch? At the time of writing, Obsidian Entertainment hasn\u2019t said anything about adding co-op after the game launches. While it would be great to have some sort of multiplayer option available, I\u2019m not going to hold my breath. Looking back at past Obsidian games, adding multiplayer to single-player games isn\u2019t something the company has ever done. That said, given early development did focus on multiplayer, we may be able to play Avowed with a friend sometime after the launch, if the stars align. We\u2019ll just have to wait for the game to release and see what happens from there.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/chrome_XTf3FY16JY.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1100892"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2382"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1100892"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1100892\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1101021,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1100892\/revisions\/1101021"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1100904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1100892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1100892"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1100892"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1100892"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1100892"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1100892"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1100892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
