Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division.
In The Outer Worlds, you awake from hibernation on a colonist ship that
was lost in transit to Halcyon, the furthest colony from Earth located
at the edge of the galaxy, only to find yourself in the midst of a deep
conspiracy threatening to destroy it. As you explore the furthest
reaches of space and encounter various factions, all vying for power,
the character you decide to become will determine how this
player-driven story unfolds. In the corporate equation for the colony,
you are the unplanned variable.
Key Features
- The
player-driven story RPG: In keeping with the Obsidian
tradition, how you approach The Outer Worlds is up to you. Your choices
affect not only the way the story develops; but your character build,
companion stories, and end game scenarios.
- You can be
flawed, in a good way: New to The Outer Worlds is the
idea of flaws. A compelling hero is made by the flaws they carry with
them. While playing The Outer Worlds, the game tracks your experience
to find what you aren't particularly good at. Keep getting attacked by
Raptidons? Taking the Raptiphobia flaw gives you a debuff when
confronting the vicious creatures, but rewards you with an additional
character perk immediately. This optional approach to the game helps
you build the character you want while exploring Halcyon.
- Lead your
companions: During your journey through the furthest
colony, you will meet a host of characters who will want to join your
crew. Armed with unique abilities, these companions all have their own
missions, motivations, and ideals. It's up to you to help them achieve
their goals, or turn them to your own ends.
- Explore the
corporate colony: Halcyon is a colony at the edge of the
galaxy owned and operated by a corporate board. They control
everything... except for the alien monsters left behind when the
terraforming of the colony's two planets didn't exactly go according to
plan. Find your ship, build your crew, and explore the settlements,
space stations, and other intriguing locations throughout Halcyon.
