The Outer Worlds is a first-person RPG style game set at the edge of the solar system. The game was released in October of 2019 initially on Xbox One, Playstation, and Windows; later, in June 2020, a Nintendo Switch version was also released. The Outer Worlds was developed by Obsidian, the same developer behind Fallout New Vegas and Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic. The influence of these two games can be seen clearly in The Outer World’s in-game mechanics and combat system.

The graphics and design elements are pleasing to the eye; after all, it is a futuristic space exploration game. Players will find a lot of cool ray guns, lots of dark humor similar to fallout, and many weird characters, which can be recruited as part of your crew. There is a limit of six crew members aboard the Unreliable, a ship used to hop around the different planets, and players can only take two members along for missions. The game uses Unreal Engine 4 to handle all the work; this engine is also used in various triple-A titles like Final Fantasy VII, Gears 5, and Borderlands 3.
