Outcast: Second Contact

Outcast: Second Contact is an open-world adventure about Cutter Slade, a Navy SEAL sent to the planet Adelpha to repair a probe and prevent an energy cataclysm from destroying Earth. The probe was destroyed by Adelpha’s natives during humanity’s first contact with intelligent beings, and the resulting disaster threatens both worlds. The Talans welcome Slade as the “Ulukai,” a figure from an ancient prophecy; as he investigates, he discovers that the fates of Adelpha and Earth are linked.

Explore Adelpha

You can explore the world freely and take on hundreds of quests at your own pace. Adelpha has six continents, which you travel across on foot or on the back of a Twôn-Ha, including wild lands unknown to humans. The planet is home to the Talans, an advanced alien civilization, and its world combines magic and science.

You can engage with Talan society in different ways: negotiate with merchants in Riss, speak with rebel forces or follow the mystical path of the grand Shamaz. The story takes more than 50 hours and involves confronting tyrants and seeking to free a people living under oppression.

Choose how to act

You can face the Talans directly in combat or use infiltration. Slade’s arsenal of evolving weapons and high-tech gadgets lets you adapt your approach to the situation. Combat includes dodges, rolls, sprinting and a cover system.

Adelpha is a living, systemic world: your actions have direct and visible consequences for its ecosystem and can change the balance of forces on the planet. The game also includes hidden areas that reveal mysteries of Adelpha.

A remade world

Outcast: Second Contact is a complete remake of Outcast, with the universe rebuilt using modern graphics. It follows a dynamic, fast-paced story starring Cutter Slade, a bluntly spoken hero.
