As we know, the summer period of the year is always full of hopes, announcements, and “possible” futures. Microsoft, in this sense, has slowly but surely provided updates on projects announced years ago, including Fable, State of Decay 3, and Perfect Dark. However, there are still exceptions, such as The Outer Worlds 2, announced in 2021. While Obsidian Entertainment focuses on Avowed, CEO Feargus Urquhart recently revealed that development on the sequel is “going very well.”
In a recent video interview with Limit Break Network, Urquhart said: “I’m impressed with the team… We’ve been very lucky. We have a lot of people who understand the game, who worked on the first one, and who have been working for us for a long time. So I’m really impressed.”
Urquhart also noted that the developer has had a “really tough time” during the COVID-19 pandemic that followed its acquisition by Microsoft. “We were trying to get The Outer Worlds done, and we’re trying to get the DLC done, and we’re trying to get Avowed going. We want to get The Outer Worlds 2 going, Grounded is moving, and Josh [Sawyer] It’s on Pentiment…
“I appreciate Microsoft and the teams and everybody and the fact that we said, ‘No, we’re going to get there.’ We’re going to get there with all these games. Are they going to be on the timelines that we originally thought they would be? No, but we’re going to get there.” He noted that Grounded and Pentiment turned out well, Avowed “looks fantastic,” and The Outer Worlds 2 “looks incredible.”
The Outer Worlds 2 has been announced for Xbox Series X/S and PC, though it doesn’t have a release date (and a PlayStation launch doesn’t appear to have been decided). The game has reportedly been in development since 2019, with Fallout co-creator Tim Cain announced as a consultant earlier this year.
The Outer Worlds 2 is a video game that belongs to the The Outer Worlds series of the Role-playing game genre developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Xbox Game Studios for PC, Xbox Series X|S.
The Outer Worlds 2 It doesn’t have a release date yet.
