The Outer Worlds 2

The Outer Worlds 2 is a first-person sci-fi RPG set in the Arcadia colony, where destructive rifts threaten humanity. As an Earth Directorate agent, you investigate their source and make decisions that shape the colony and the galaxy. Your character’s abilities, flaws, crew and choice of allies all influence what happens.

The Arcadia conflict

Arcadia, home of skip drive technology, is caught in a factional war. The Protectorate’s rule faces a rebellion by its religious order and a corporate invasion, while the rifts spread across the colony. Each faction seeks to control or close them for its own ends. You travel through varied zones, uncover hidden lore and determine the fate of a system on the brink.

Shape your story

You build a character with abilities and choices suited to your playstyle. The colony reacts to your actions, whether you favor diplomacy, strategy, chaos or another approach. You can also choose to play a character with low intelligence.

You recruit companions with their own traits, backgrounds and goals. You can help them pursue their ambitions or direct them toward your objectives; your influence shapes their development and whether they live or die.
