Futuristic FPS/RPG. Looks like they have the New Vegas team working on it. Given FO4 being good-not-great, and 76 being a shitshow, I'm super excited to see this in development. Between Cyberpunk 2077 and this, 2019 is going to be a great year for games.

Microsoft is just the publisher and fund provider. Nothing more. They’ve stated multiple times the developers have free reign over their projects.

I was sold the second I saw "developers of Fallout: New Vegas."

Just please come out for Steam and not the stupid windows store.

Thank Christ. Whoever brought up that Microsoft was publishing it in this thread is wrong then.

Well Microsoft bought Obsidian, so I assume they are publishing. Not sure how the distribution will work, but there was a steam logo at the end of the trailer.


ETA I'd bet since the Microsoft acquisition was so recent, Obsidian already had deals in place with this game for all platforms, so Outer Worlds can't be an exclusive.

I get that No Man's Sky mislead a lot of people (and it deserves much of the hate it received), but it never advertised itself as an RPG akin to Fallout.

Regardless, I think this might be my most anticipated game now. Looks awesome and gives me a Fallout / Firefly vibe.

Exactly. I get it's the thing to do, giving NMS a lot of shite, but that is a space survival game.


Gamer #1: Looks like what No Mans Sky should have been.

Gamer #2: ......but it's a racing game.

Gamer #1: And it looks really good.

Gamer #2: You're right. No Man's Sky should have been good.

unfortunately the writer of the fallout bible, chris avellone, no longer works for obsidian

John Gonzales is gone too

Sawyer was a main lynchpin for the NV effort and he's on board for this, for sure.


its not the same exact NV team but its damn sure as close as we will ever get and and it will be great


for anyone bored on a Friday, heres the fallout bible

I’m not saying it did. It should’ve taken that route if it wanted to survive though. At least make an effort at fleshing out a world. Procedurally generated shite is an epic fail. What a POS game Anyone that says they enjoyed it is in denial
