The Outer Worlds thoroughly lands its maiden voyage, making it the most-promising new IP in years.
The Outer Worlds launches on October 25, 2019, and as I write this, I literally just got finished with the story.
Set a few hundred years in the future, ten Earth corporations pooled their resources and purchased an entire solar system, shipping out several colony ships with the aim of building up an all-new home away from Earth. As you might expect, things didn't exactly go to plan.
The Outer Worlds is an utterly tremendous achievement that showcases the best of Obsidian's writing wit, world-building detail, and character focus. The game borrows heavily from other major beloved RPG franchises that have fallen out of favor with shareholders in recent years, which is perhaps ironic given the game's extreme-Capitalism plot beats. Obsidian fills that forgotten niche with confidence and rigor.
Here's everything awesome (and not so awesome) about The Outer Worlds, the most exciting new IP in years.
