Microsoft is bringing Avowed and Towerborne to PlayStation 5

More On: Avowed Towerborne

Microsoft opened the floodgates of Xbox games jumping to PlayStation a while ago now, but at last week's New Game+ Showcase, the team in green announced two more big titles are heading to the team in blue this February.

First up is Obsidian Entertainment’s fantasy RPG, Avowed, which is coming to PlayStation 5 on February 17th alongside a major anniversary update for all platforms. The update includes a new game plus mode (how fitting), a new weapon, new playable races, and more. Pre-orders are available now for the PS5 version, which will include support for PS5 Pro, haptic feedback, and adaptive triggers. It’ll set you back $49.99 on Sony’s machine.

Coming later in the month, on February 26th, is side-scrolling fantasy beat ‘em up Towerborne from Stoic, the developers of the Banner Saga trilogy. February 26th coincides with the game’s full 1.0 release which will complete the story campaign, add new bosses, new player abilities, new difficulty settings, and a redesigned world map. It also marks a major pivot away from being a free-to-play live service game to a premium, what-you-see-is-what-you-get one.

Avowed looks dope, and I will play anything made by Stoic, so it looks like February just got a lot busier for me.
