Xbox Game Studios and Obsidian Entertainment have released a new trailer for The Outer Worlds 2 titled “Companions.” The role-playing game is set to launch on October 29 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store. It will also be available through Game Pass.

The trailer highlights the companions who will accompany players across the Arcadia colony. These characters will stand by your side as you investigate mysterious rifts in space-time, confront rival factions, and navigate shifting power struggles that threaten the future of the colony. The video also emphasizes that players are free to choose their own approach, whether they rely on their crew or prefer to face challenges alone.
The Outer Worlds 2 builds on the branching narratives, satirical edge, and choice-driven gameplay that defined its predecessor. Players will once again decide how they interact with allies, enemies, and the wider universe, shaping the story in both dramatic and unexpected ways.
