The translation of "Oath" failed to meet expectations. The Japanese version will be postponed to August 2025
The fantasy RPG game "Avowed" developed by Obsidian Entertainment has received widespread praise since its launch in February this year. The story of the game is set in the world of Eora in the "Pillar of Eternity" series.
Previously, the official has been working hard to localize Japanese in the "Oath". Recently, Obsidian Entertainment officially issued a statement, updating the latest situation of Japanese localization.
The statement stated that since the translation work failed to proceed according to the scheduled plan, the Japanese version is currently expected to be launched in August 2025.
Feargus Urquhart, the head of Obsidian Entertainment, sincerely apologized to fans who have been looking forward to the Japanese version in his statement. He mentioned that although the game was launched in February this year, the Japanese translation work failed to be completed on time, and he felt deeply guilty about this.
A major feature of "Offer" is its wonderful dialogue, exciting storyline, and in-depth interactions around player choices and results. This extension is precisely to ensure that Japanese players can provide a high-quality localized version in Japanese so that they can fully feel the unique charm of this game. Players are also full of higher expectations for the final Japanese version.
