Give me strange, Obsidian! How will The Outer Worlds 2 play? An ED-209 style killer robot with attachment issues. A totally out-there alien like Mass Effect's Hanar. The first game's companions were all slightly different flavours of human, so for the sequel I want to see some weirder concepts. Personally, I'm hoping that the sequel goes all-out on the new party. While there’s no evidence to support this, it’s also likely that you’ll play as a brand new protagonist, since Obsidian’s games are all about building and developing your character from scratch. (Image credit: Obsidian Entertainment) Which characters will feature in The Outer Worlds 2?Īccording to the above announcement tweet, as well as a new solar system, The Outer Worlds 2 will feature a “new crew.” This makes sense given the multiple ways the first game could end, and all the different potential fates of your party. More broadly, taking into account the general tone of the trailer, we can safely assume that The Outer Worlds 2 will be thematically similar to the first game, boasting a mixture of zany humour and corporate satire.
THE OUTER WORLDS 2 RELEASE DATE FULL
Given how The Outer Worlds ends with the protagonist being offered full leadership over the Halcyon colony, it’ll be interesting to see how Obsidian builds on this whether they’ll try to tie in the story of Halcyon and the Stranger, or whether the sequel will be largely separate, with only small references to the first game. Hence, it’s likely that Halcyon Holdings will appear in The Outer Worlds 2 in some form. Spacer’s Choice is owned by Universal Defence Logistics, which is itself a part of the Halcyon Holdings Corporation. Moon Man is the mascot of Spacer’s Choice, an Outer Worlds corporation that specialises in producing cheap consumer products. The only clue revealed in the trailer is the appearance of Moon Man at the title reveal. What is The Outer Worlds 2’s story?Ībsolutely no idea. Of course, it’s impossible to know whether these are representative of locations that will appear in the game, or if it’s another one of the trailer’s jokes.
THE OUTER WORLDS 2 RELEASE DATE CRACKED
Looking at the cinematic trailer, some locations that we see include a lush forest world and a vast, cracked desert interspersed with mountain-sized blue crystals emerging from the ground.
