2025 is a busy year for Obsidian. The studio launched the well-received first-person fantasy RPG Avowed in February. Grounded 2, the sequel to its "honey-I-shrunk-the-kids" survival game, arrives in July. And in October, Obsidian's revisiting its satirical space sci-fi setting with The Outer Worlds 2.
