Avowed received its latest trailer in the Xbox Games Showcase that went live today (June 11), revealing the world of Eora is in turmoil.“Explore the Living Lands, a mysterious island filled with adventure and danger.

As an envoy of Aedyr, you are sent to investigate rumours of a spreading plague with a secret that threatens to destroy everything,” reads a new summary from Xbox Game Studios.“Can you save the island and your soul from the forces threatening to tear them apart?”Eora is the same setting as Obsidian Entertainment’s Pillars of Eternity.

The first trailer showed off a mix of magic and melee combat and once again, we got a glimpse of the many creative ways to eliminate enemies.

Indeed, the whole trailer was intensely colourful, making the most of the art team’s imagination when it comes to exploring even more of Eora in a first-person perspective.One thing to note is that Pillars of Eternity possesses advanced ordnance like crossbows and flintlock pistols.
