Exact The Outer Worlds 2 release date and time
The Outer Worlds 2 is set to launch on Oct. 23 and 24(Early Access) and Oct. 29 for everyone else. The Early Access is reserved for those who've forked over $99 and purchased the Premium Edition of the game, allowing them to play nearly a full week before others.

For those who have purchased the Premium Edition of the game, you can expect the title to unlock on your relevant platform on Thursday, Oct. 23 at 11pm CT.
What platforms will The Outer Worlds 2 be available on?
The Outer Worlds 2 will release on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC. It was initially announced as an Xbox-exclusive title in 2021, but a trailer shown at The Game Awards featured the PS5 logo at the end, confirming that it'll be a multi-platform release.
Just like its predecessor, The Outer Worlds 2 is played from the first-person perspective. You'll spend most of your time talking to NPCs, doing quests for them, and probably shooting a bunch of enemies. If Obsidian's track record is anything to go by, you'll likely also run into branching narratives based on the decisions you've made throughout the story.
