What Happens After You Beat Avowed?

While Avowed's Living Lands feel vast, the main storyline is surprisingly concise. Curious about what awaits after the credits roll? This guide details the post-game experience in Obsidian's RPG.

New Game Plus?

Many RPG fans relish replaying the main quest on higher difficulties with acquired skills and gear. Unfortunately, Avowed currently lacks a New Game Plus mode at launch. However, Obsidian may add this feature via future updates or DLC based on player feedback.

Despite this, replayability exists. Avowed's numerous choices impact the story and gameplay, making a fresh save worthwhile to explore different endings and character builds.

Endgame Content?

Avowed features four main regions, a secret final area, and a return to a major city (details withheld to avoid spoilers). Legendary-quality weapons and gear become crucial here. However, this challenging endgame doesn't affect previous regions, nor does it unlock new ones. The inability to revisit the Living Lands, shaped by your choices, is a notable omission.

Post-Game Activities

The post-game is somewhat limited due to the absence of New Game Plus and endgame content. After the final encounter, extensive cutscenes illustrate the consequences of your decisions. Then, you're returned to the main menu.

From there, you can start a new game or reload a previous save. Autosaves exist before the point of no return and the final encounter, allowing for replaying these sections with different choices to see alternate story outcomes.

Reloading to before the point of no return lets you revisit earlier regions. Clean up the map, earn achievements, complete missed side quests, and collect unfound items. Enemies in these earlier areas won't scale to your level, making it incredibly satisfying to revisit Dawnshore, for example, with top-tier equipment.

That's the post-Avowed experience in a nutshell.

Avowed is available now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
