The Outer Worlds is an action RPG game developed by Obsidian Entertainment studio. It's a team whose portfolio includes such productions as Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords, Fallout: New Vegas or the Pillars of Eternity series. The game was released by Private Division - under this brand Take-Two Interactive helps independent developers. It is worth noting that the title was supervised by Leonard Boyarsky and Tim Cain, the developers to whom we owe the creation of the first installment of the Fallout series.

Plot

The Outer Worlds takes place in a retro-futuristic universe. We play the role of a spacecraft crewman awakened from hibernation, who was sent to Halcyon, the Earth's colony located on the outskirts of the galaxy. As it soon turns out, the days of the institution may be counted - the protagonist encounters a trace of a conspiracy directed against it. How the fate of the colony will unfold and what role the hero will play in it depends on the player's actions and decisions, as well as his relations with characters and factions functioning in the game world.
