After being released on the Epic Games Store last year, Obsidian Entertainment’s The Outer Worlds is now available on Steam and GOG.
To celebrate the release on both platforms, both the base game and the recently released DLC, Peril on Gorgon, have been bundled together and priced at $29.99. This discounted price will only last until November 6th, 2020.

Currently, there’s no word if players will be able to transfer their save data from the Epic Games Store version to the Steam and GOG versions. However, since the data saves seem to be the same across the platforms, you should be able to do so with no issue.
KEY FEATURES
- The player-driven story RPG
In keeping with the Obsidian tradition, how you approach The Outer Worlds is up to you. Your choices affect not only the way the story develops; but your character build, companion stories, and end game scenarios.
- You can be flawed, in a good way
New to The Outer Worlds is the idea of flaws. A compelling hero is made by the flaws they carry with them. While playing The Outer Worlds, the game tracks your experience to find what you aren’t particularly good at. Keep getting attacked by Raptidons? Taking the Raptiphobia flaw gives you a debuff when confronting the vicious creatures, but rewards you with an additional character perk immediately. This optional approach to the game helps you build the character you want while exploring Halcyon.
- Lead your companions
During your journey through the furthest colony, you will meet a host of characters who will want to join your crew. Armed with unique abilities, these companions all have their own missions, motivations, and ideals. It’s up to you to help them achieve their goals, or turn them to your own ends.
- Explore the corporate colony
Halcyon is a colony at the edge of the galaxy owned and operated by a corporate board. They control everything… except for the alien monsters left behind when the terraforming of the colony’s two planets didn’t exactly go according to plan. Find your ship, build your crew, and explore the settlements, space stations, and other intriguing locations throughout Halcyon.
The Outer Worlds is currently available on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam/Epic Games Store/GOG/Windows Store).
