This gave the first Outer Worlds a biting satirical comedy element that constantly riffed on the idea of corporate greed and oppression, although it sometimes felt like it didn’t go far enough. MicrosoftOn a technical level, it’s clear Outer Worlds 2 is a pretty drastic step up from the first game. The concept of a better-looking and playing Outer Worlds is enticing enough, but Obsidian’s games have always been about rich personality and role-playing potential. And that’s exactly what feels shines the most about Outer Worlds 2 right now, the ability to inhabit a character. The Outer Worlds 2 launches on October 29 for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC.
