Released 2019, The Outer Worlds allowed players to confront and conquer the galaxy in a myriad of ways. Sure, you could shoot your way out, but oftentimes you could talk your way out of trouble before it even begins.
Many of the quests contain multiple approaches and solutions depending on the player’s character’s strengths. A staggering amount of customization means that no two playthroughs are exactly alike.
Players can create a beloved hero or despotic tyrant and have their choices ripple throughout the game world. Dozens of perks and countless weapons offer plenty of combat options for when words have failed you. Time dilation mechanics let you close the gap and gain an edge on enemies.
The player character awakes from decades out of commission on a transit ship headed for the edge of the galaxy. Players explore a variety of planets and recruit several different companions to aid them in their investigation. Of the many factions and mega-corporations competing for power.
