Obsidian Shifts Focus to Fallout | Venice Beach News

Obsidian Entertainment is pivoting big time—shutting down Avowed’s sequel and cutting 25% of its staff as part of Xbox’s sweeping “reset” under CEO Asha Sharma. The studio’s future is now locked into Fallout, with Fallout: New Vegas’ Josh Sawyer stepping in to lead a new game in the iconic universe. This follows his prior work on a Fallout-like project and comes as Bethesda teams up with Obsidian. While Avowed’s sequel may still have a distant chance, Obsidian’s immediate focus is Fallout—with DLC for The Outer Worlds 2 and Grounded 2 still in the pipeline.
