New Trailer for The Outer Worlds 2 Launched at The Game Awards, Set for 2025

A New Adventure Awaits in The Outer Worlds 2

The cosmos is calling once more, and this time, it’s louder, wilder, and a whole lot more unpredictable. We just dropped the first gameplay trailer for The Outer Worlds 2 during The Game Awards 2024, and trust us, you won’t want to miss this fresh journey into a brand-new colony set to launch next year. Yes, you heard that right—we’re not just throwing around marketing fluff here. The setting is entirely new, so let’s hope you all learned your lesson from sending the Hope into the sun last time. We’re watching you!

In true Obsidian Entertainment style, you get to carve your own path through the chaos of Arcadia, a colony bursting with factions, intrigue, and a dash of mayhem. This is where skip drive technology resides, and the fate of not just the colony, but the entire galaxy hangs in the balance. As an Earth Directorate agent who’s dashing, undeniably charming, and perhaps a little questionable in competence, your mission is to uncover the source of the devastating rifts that threaten everything. Stakes are high—though we’re not talking about the raptidon steaks, which are a whole different ball game!

Faction Wars and Choices Galore

But wait, are the rifts the only threat to Arcadia? Of course not! That would be far too simple. The colony is embroiled in a factional war between the so-called “benevolent rulers” known as the Protectorate, a rebellious scientific religious order, and a corporate mega power, all vying to control or close the rifts for their own gain. It’s a classic showdown of church, state, and capitalism! Who will come out on top? Well, that’s entirely up to you. Remember, this is your game, and the choices are yours to make—just like we’ve been saying all along.

We’ve mentioned choice a few times, but let’s be real: this is an RPG, so get ready for it to come up again and again. Crafting your commander is where the magic happens. From ability points to skill checks in conversations, and even how flawed you want your character to be—because let’s face it, no one’s perfect (except maybe those who think they are). So, how will you build your commander and navigate this player-driven narrative? Whether you lean towards diplomacy, strategy, chaos, or something completely unique, the choice is, you guessed it, all yours. And yes, this is The Outer Worlds, so you can absolutely embrace your inner goofball!

Your Crew Awaits

While The Outer Worlds 2 is a single-player RPG, you won’t be flying solo! You’ll have a crew of companions to help you tackle your objectives. Nothing screams “middle management” quite like sending your team into battle while they silently judge your every move. Maybe, just maybe, you’ll help them achieve their own dreams along the way. After all, you care about the people who are helping you, right?

As anticipation builds for the 2025 launch, now is the perfect time to dive back into The Outer Worlds and relive the adventure that started it all. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler of the Halcyon system or a newcomer ready to explore, there’s no better moment to gear up for the next chapter. You can snag The Outer Worlds on XBOX One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Epic Games Store, and Nintendo Switch. Plus, Game Pass members can jump in right now!

Expanding the Universe

And guess what? The universe of The Outer Worlds is expanding even further! The upcoming Secret Level anthology series on Prime Video will feature The Outer Worlds 2, with a short story set between the first game and its sequel. Mark your calendars for December 17, because this episode is genuinely good—and if the Board were still around, they’d definitely say it’s mandatory viewing.

So, don’t forget to wishlist The Outer Worlds 2 on Xbox Series X|S, the Xbox app on Windows PC, Steam, and PlayStation 5. Stay tuned for more updates because we can’t wait to share what’s next. The galaxy is yours to explore, but the real question is: how will you shape it? Get ready, because The Outer Worlds 2 is set to launch in 2025 on Xbox Series X|S, the Xbox app on Windows PC, Steam, and PlayStation 5—and yes, it will be available on day one with Game Pass!
