[Global Network Interactive Entertainment Comprehensive Report] On August 3, Microsoft announced today that the latest RPG masterpiece "Avowed" by its well-known game developer Obsidian Studio will be postponed to February 18, 2024. This decision is not due to any obstacles in the game development process, but a strategic adjustment after careful consideration by Microsoft, aiming to avoid the multiple blockbusters that will be released in the second half of 2024 and provide players with a more reasonable game experience rhythm.

Since its debut in June this year, "The Oath" has attracted the attention of many players with its fantasy setting of swords and magic and open-world adventure elements. The game is set on a mysterious island called Living Lands. Players will go deep into this world full of unknowns and adventures, uncover the truth behind the spread of the plague, and explore the secrets that may subvert all order. This game will provide players with an immersive storyline, and will also use the powerful functions of the Xbox Series X/S and the flexibility of the PC platform to present players with delicate graphics and smooth operating experience.

Microsoft's decision reflects its emphasis on players' gaming experience and forward-looking market strategy. In the second half of 2024, the game market will usher in a series of blockbuster works, including "Call of Duty: Black Ops 6", "STALKER2", "Indiana Jones", "Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024", "Star Wars: Desperadoes" and "Assassin's Creed: Shadow", each of which has its own loyal fan base. In order to avoid too concentrated game releases and cause player choice fatigue, Microsoft chose to arrange a relatively free time window for "Oath" to ensure that it can get the attention it deserves and the full experience of players.

Microsoft said that this adjustment is not only beneficial to the market performance of the game itself, but also leaves "breathing space" for players' schedules. By staggering the release, Microsoft hopes that "The Oath" can stand out in a relatively calm market environment and bring players an undisturbed and fully engaged adventure journey.
