As you explore a space colony, 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. Release date: 25 October 2019. This item is FREE delivery. Suitable for the Xbox One. The Outer Worlds is a new single-player first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division. 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. Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the furthest edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy the Halcyon colony. 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. 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 game tracks your experience to find what you arent 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.
