Obsidian has revealed one of their new titles – The Outer Worlds. The Outer Worlds is a post-apocalypse game single-player story based RPG as many have suspected. In Outer Worlds the player must save the planet from megacorporations who have colonized and terraformed the planet. You will meet many characters who you can recruit and travel with them on your journey. These non-playable companions will tell you their own personal stories and also have missions for you to accomplish and most importantly they will also aid you in combat. The player also has access to their own personal ship. You cannot fly the ship but it can be used as base of operations, inventory and also fast travel throughout the world.
The most exciting part about the announcement and the game itself is simply the fact that it is being developed by the original Fallout creators along with Fallout New Vegas developers as well.
