Representatives from the press recently got to play the first hour of The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon expansion DLC, which is coming out next week. Today a number of outlets published their preview articles, including gameplay footage. The demo begins with the party being summoned to the Gorgon asteroid to receive their mission from an enigmatic heiress and concludes with an encounter with a mysterious figure. IGN uploaded footage of both parts:

​

Many of the previewers seem to have enjoyed the tongue-in-cheek film noir qualities of the expansion's opening hour. Other than that though, it sounds like the standard Outer Worlds experience. Here's the list of previews:

Fextralife
Game Informer
IGN
MMORPG
PC Invasion
PlayStation Blog
PowerUp!
Press Start Australia
Shacknews
​

If you have to read just one, the PC Invasion preview is the most detailed by far.

That thumbnail for the first vid makes me think of some tranny goth David Spade character..

So, why are you always running around with your weapon not holstered. The rest of the crew must think you're batshit crazy pointing a pistol in their face.​

 

[Achiman]

About as appealing as Skyrim on PS5.
Just let the art deco lost in space experiment die.

 

[Curious_Tongue]

I can't even watch a youtube let's play of this game.

Does it get better if you sink a few dozen hours into it?

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

As a fool and collector, I'll nab it on discount (but don't I do that with every game?.... well DOOM Eternal... oh wait! That was a mega DOOM BUNDLE.... ngggghhh yeaaahhh. Sorry).

and wait for the porno mod since so many female crewmembers.

Nobody is gonna make nude mods for this turd.
It has shittier graphics than Skyrim and the characters all look like potatos.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Oh yeah baby.

Spoiler

GET YOUR HANDS OF MY TATER YOU DAMN DIRTY APE!!!

 

[GentlemanCthulhu]

Can't believe they are coming up with more of this garbage.

 

[jac8awol]

Good to see their war on heterosexual attractive women is still going strong. Viva zero-g strapons!

 

[Ranarama]

This got me incredibly excited, because I thought it was DLC for Outer Wilds.

Look at the utter contempt she has on her face.

"Buy this DLC you filthy little pay pig"

They didn't think the setting was annoying and wacky enough, so now the entire colorful crew is breaking the 4th wall by referencing how wacky the plot and setting of the DLC are. Besides that, there's a wacky unique weapon or two. Epic.

inb4 infinitron edgy and fake news

 

[Iluvcheezcake]

Did not play the game but watched this out of sheer boredom.
Wow this is bad... I am no graphics whore, but the facial animations are terribad and stand out from the rest of the body.
Ugh

 

[Crescent Hawk]

Even the models have the thousand cock yard stare.

 

[Joseph Stalin]

In true communism, games like this will be burned on a pyre as the ultimate expression of the failure of capitalism.

 

[Sobchak]

Female characters in this game are pushed so hard for the wrong reasons... BUT to be fair, at least one had decent writing and all the rest were totally bland.

Don't you mean "ITS FACE?"

Minflayer & Orc??? Maybe.

Oh my god my eyes!!?

This thread needs a "not safe for anyone" warning.

Ugly Mystery-Meat: The Game. Jebus save us.

Infinitron Can we please change that video thumbnail... pretty please?! Every time I click to come to the Codex and that smug face keeps staring at me. I'd love to see the web traffic metrics to see how our front page views have gone down since you posted that little "gem" of a news post? Never really knew what "being triggered" meant until now......
