It’s Essentially Fallout in Space
Whether it was the humor, gameplay, or overall style of The Outer Worlds, it was pretty clear Obsidian was sticking to their strengths when they revealed their new IP at the Game Awards in 2018.
Comparisons to Fallout New Vegas – a game that Obsidian developed back in 2010 – were made immediately, as the title was deemed “New Vegas in Space” by many.
With every new bit of information that released, that typecast rang more true, as the terrestrial setting was accompanied by all of the hallmark features fans loved about Fallout New Vegas.
Time will tell as to whether it can live up to the high bar that Obsidian set for themselves, but you can find out for yourself when the game releases for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows on Oct. 25, 2019.
