Metacritic: 85 Opencritic: 80 XboxEra (9/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is a confidently made game. It is perfectly scoped, with excellent gameplay, writing, and voice acting. The combat and movement are the biggest step up over the original. Whether you have played that title or not, if you want a choice-heavy, narrative-rich adventure in a far-off solar system, then this game is worth a download or Game Pass or buying outright. Inverse (9/10): The sequel utterly revels in the absurdity of its satire on capitalism, government, authoritarianism, and individuality – even if it takes a bit longer to get situated than the first game. Noisy Pixel (9/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is a confident and evolved sequel that deepens Obsidian's signature blend of player agency, narrative impact, and dark satire. Set in a galaxy divided by ideology and shaped by choice, it refines nearly every system from its predecessor while introducing dynamic flaws, factional politics, and layered exploration that rewards curiosity. Though some visuals and early customization options fall short, its storytelling, companion design, and flexible mission structure shine across dozens of hours. Playstation Universe (9/10): The Outer Worlds 2 excels on almost all fronts, presenting you with an open RPG that lets you choose how you progress while still keeping you on a clear path. The in-game systems allow you to customize how you play and give you versatility in the choices you make along the way. Combine that with great writing, and you have a recipe for success. Equipment menus are a bit clunky, enemy encounters can be manipulated, and the act of looting takes some getting used to. Still, none of these issues will keep you from enjoying the game. The Outers Worlds 2 is worth every penny of the $70 it asks for. Loot Level Chill (9/10): I loved my time with The Outer Worlds 2 and will go back for at least a second run with different choices and skills. It's a deceptively smart Looter-shooter RPG with colourful worlds and entertaining characters, and some really satisfying, malleable combat. The skill, dialogue, and progression systems are more than enough to make up for some iffy performance and a couple of (hopefully patchable) design decisions, and it reinforces my belief that Obsidian is one of the greats. Metro UK (9/10): A deep, funny, and systemically complex role-playing game, built around wry satire and a far-reaching sense of consequence, where conversation is at least as important as combat. COGConnected (85/100): There are few ways in which The Outer Worlds 2 doesn't improve on the first game. It's bigger, deeper, and more complex. The story and characters are more satisfying. Combat has been refined. It takes its time and demands players be patient and engage in all its systems and overlook some technical issues that pop up somewhat frequently. I can't imagine a world -- Outer or not -- in which fans of the original won't enjoy this new experience. wccftech (8.5/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is an improved, more refined version of The Outer Worlds and is an all-around better game than its predecessor, with a well-executed Flaw system to keep gameplay interesting, improved gunplay, stunning visuals, and excellent character writing, voice acting and animations. It's held back by a lacking plot that fizzles well before the end, progression pacing that's all over the place, and an abysmal menu system, but those elements don't make it a game you should skip, whether you were a fan of the first game or not. PCGamer (83/100): The Outer Worlds 2 is not a new Obsidian all-timer, but it's one of the best games I've played this year and an RPG I'll happily revisit down the line. Some of its balance and mechanical quirks can be frustrating, particularly early in a playthrough, but enduring them is well worth it. IGN (8/10): The Outer Worlds 2 doesn't try to rewrite Obsidian's RPG playbook, but it's yet another strong refinement, with smoother combat, diabolically compelling buildcrafting and loot, and a story that immediately made me want to start again to see an alternate outcome. The sluggish first act and lack of enemy variety make it a bit of a slog at certain times, but once its story of political intrigue kicks in and the new flaws and perks system gets its claws in you, it can be quite hard to put down. All these improvements put The Outer Worlds 2 that much closer to being the Fallout: New Vegas successor we hoped this series would be, and that's worth getting excited about. GameSpot (8/10): The Outer Worlds 2 imbues Obsidian's spacefaring RPG series with its own identity, letting you bumble your way through corporate and cultish intrigue in space. Progress Bar (8/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is a great sequel. Core aspects have been vastly improved upon, from the delightful skill and flaws system, to the feel and flow of combat, to the wacky visuals. That said, it hasn't quite managed to shake off all the problems of the first game. The humour and somewhat shallow nature of a lot of this world's satire gets grating pretty fast. The factions and their many members are far too often cartoonish and goofy, which doesn't always make for compelling storytelling. Despite this, The Outer Worlds 2 remains a bold step in the right direction and a title well worth checking out if you're a fan of Obsidian's work. Eurogamer (8/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is for better and worse still fluffy gaming comfort food, but it is significantly improved and better than its predecessor in almost every way. Worth Playing (8/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is a solid, engaging and enjoyable follow-up to the original game. It changes its dynamic and tone enough that it can potentially turn off people who really loved the original. At the same time, it feels like something that might work better for those who prefer their RPGs to be less goofy. There's a varied and interesting set of character builds available, and it's easy to imagine playing the game multiple times to see distinctly different outcomes for various quests. If you're looking for a solid RPG with some good meat on its bones, The Outer Worlds 2 does everything it needs to do. Techraptor (7.5/10) : While there's little wrong with The Outer Worlds 2, it doesn't have a pull that will keep players wanting to devote hours to it. TheSixthAxis (7/10): The Outer Worlds 2 is a thoroughly enjoyable game, but as sequels go, it's largely more of the same. While the overarching story isn't terribly interesting, the world building around it and the colony of Arcadia is great to explore. What's disappointing is a lack of improvement in too many areas. It looks better and gunplay is better, but old snags and weaknesses from the first game remain and, more importantly, it's not as exciting and new as it was the first time round. PushSquare (7/10): The Outer Worlds 2 succeeds in being a bigger and better sequel, buoyed by an even greater emphasis on player choice and freedom. Its RPG mechanics are largely fantastic, and there are key improvements to both combat and exploration. However, despite Obsidian's clever writing, there's a underlying dreariness to the property that it just can't seem to escape. These dull characters and their one-note factions are difficult to truly care for. Final Weapon (3.5/5): The Outer Worlds 2 is a fantastic modern RPG. The emphasis on player choice and customization, the great dialogue and characters, exceptional worldbuilding, and fun gameplay mechanics make it one of Obsidian's best games in years. However, that excitement is hindered by frustrating navigation mechanics, constant glitches, and characters that lack depth due to the absence of romances and natural speech options. While this is a great return to form for the genre, you may be better off waiting for all of the issues to be fixed in a post-launch update before buying. Dexerto (3/5): After waiting six years for another crack at The Outer Worlds, it feels disappointing to be met with a sequel that is so promising but marred by a poor first half and frustrating Flaws. But the game isn't a total flop, saved by its whimsical charm, vivid dystopian subject matter, and the classic, slower, and more explorative design that Obsidian games have perfected. VGC (3/5): As a sequel, The Outer Worlds 2 doesn't strive to reinvent its past foundation and does little to stand out in the RPG genre. If you're looking for new toys to play with, you'll find plenty of weapons and a much-improved gunplay to boot. Just don't expect to carry many memories of your time in Arcadia with you. CNET (Unscored): The Outer Worlds 2 is one of my favorite RPGs released this year, and it's so close to greatness. It has practically everything I wanted in a game (enough that I could have considered it even better than Mass Effect), but Obsidian just missed the mark with its tone. Who knows, maybe the company will figure it out with the third game in the series. Rockpapershotgun (Unscored): If you float into Arcadia expecting something as deeply crafted and eminently memorable as New Vegas, or even Obsidian's medieval murder mystery Pentiment, I'd say the experience falls short of those very lofty marks. Or, as The Outer Worlds 2 seems to think my advertising-addled brain would put it: me like Other Words too, but no new New Vargas. Polygon (Unscored): The Outer Worlds 2 is defined by its whiplash, alternating between deeply rewarding storytelling and outcomes that feel rushed and stilted. I largely enjoyed the time I spent (mostly) making Arcadia a better place; it's just disappointing to see such strong potential in the opening hours that doesn't show up again. There's a middle ground between the first game's brevity and the sequel's overly ambitious nature, and I hope Obsidian gets the chance to find it in a third game. https://as.com/meristation/analisis/analisis-de-the-outer-worlds-2-un-rpg-de-ciencia-ficcion-ideal-para-sibaritas-del-genero-f202510-n/ 8 https://vandal.elespanol.com/analisis/pc/the-outer-worlds-2/102232#p-13 https://www.eurogamer.es/the-outer-worlds-2-analisis-review https://www.hobbyconsolas.com/reviews/analisis-outer-worlds-2-viaje-espacial-puro-obsidian-1487827

No he jugado la primera parte pero quizá pruebe este cuando lo vea medio barato.

No lo dudaba a pesar de los odiadores

Lo visto de este me mola más que el anterior

Cuando se habla de Obsidian es obligatorio nombrar New Vegas.

Sumadle 0,5 a la nota final que le habrán quitado por ser de Obsidian

Por lo que sea a este sí le toca criticar gráficamente por no ser lo más de lo más, pero al Polemon con gráficos de hace 15 años, bugs y un rendimiento extremadamente pobre, no. La casualidad

domyos90 A mí me parece un poco de aquella manera quejarse de los gráficos de un juego que se ve como este

En general parece que han mejorado en todo con respecto al primero. Lo que más he notado es el combate, que parece ya de un juego de su categoría, no la cutrez sosa que hicieron en el primero. No tenía claro si lo compraría de salida, pero me estoy picando un poco 🤔

Parece que no es que sea mucho mejor que el anterior, y me pareció bastante malo, así que interés ninguno

The Outer Worlds 2 ha salido bueno

domyos90

Marquez
El no estar con 5 proyectos a la vez y centrarse en uno, para poder sacar lo mejor de este, que se sienta terminado el juego y este pueda ser el big hit que les salve de cerrar?
Nah, mejor lanzar este año tres juegos y así tener el equipo demasiado diseminado como para hacer un juego redondo

Me da que el problema de Obsidian es la propia Obsidian

Marquez De ahí solo New Vegas y Pillars 2 los consideraría buenos juegos. Y New Vegas salió como un pan sin meter en el horno y el segundo pasó completamente desapercibido. Quizas por la mediocridad de su antecesor. Mención especial a Tyranny que pese a ser buen juego se quedó un poco a medias (y no lo conoce nadie).

Intolerable

Artyom De hay solo New Vegas y Pillars 2 los consideraría buenos juegos

Artyom Tyranny que pese a ser buen juego

Yo ya no se macho, que coño os pasa 😭

Artyom

Intolerable Que obsidian abarca pero no aprieta. A sus proyectos siempre les falta algo (o mucho) para ser redondos. Y cuando lo han sido pues no han vendido lo que les gustaría.

Como decían más arriba les hace falta un New Vegas 2 para que los rieguen con dinero y poder sacársela. Eso sí, prefiero el infame motor de bethesda a la terrible forma en la que usan el Unreal Engine (hasta el Stalker 2 va mejor y más fluido que el mojoncio de Outer Worlds 2).

Marquez

Esto es lo que pasa cuando haces una secuela de un juego que nadie ha pedido.
Que a mi me atrae mucho más que su primera parte, y si estuviera a 30 pavos lo pillaba.
Pero a precio completo teniendo ahí tantas otras opciones... Venga hasta luego.

PD: y siendo Microsoft yo me iria olvidando de Pillars, Tyranny y ese tipo de juegos. Ahora se dedicarán a lo que funciona, probablemente a Fallout.

Intolerable

Artyom

Si lo digo porque dices que solo 2 son buenos y luego resulta que el Tyranny también xd.

Artyom

Intolerable Es que tampoco diría que es un gran juego. Está como a medias xd, les faltó acabarlo.

Calvel

Marquez Quitando tyranny que no cuadra en esa progresión, efectivamente van cuesta abajo y sin frenos como desarrolladores, 0 drama

Cuando chapen será con razon

Gente que dice que le gustan los videojuegos soltando que la desarrolladora de Alpha Protocol, Pilars 1 y 2, F New Vegas, Tyranny o Pentiment tendría que cerrar.

Así está la industria.

Mañana sacan un modo de combate por turnos al Pillars of Eternity, mas de 10 años después. A ver si resucitan la saga para los nuevos jugadores que se engancharon con el BG 3 a los turnos.

Berti

-Es que ya no se hacen nuevas Ips
-Por qué obsidian no hace ya un fallout en vez de mierdas nuevas?

Intolerable

Berti

Boah tio y por que no se montan un fallout con la ip de betezda el estudio de opsidianc y los de inchile y que llamen tambien al avelloun y al del arkane que depidieron boah y a los de stalker y boas waos tio

Yemeth

Berti Que The Outer World es un Obsidian queriendo hacer un Fallout sin el nombre de Fallout. Pues ahora tienen Fallout, dale Fallout.

Es que no es tan difícil. No hay universo que puedan crear mejor que el de Fallout, es de lo más top que se ha hecho en la historia (para mi el mejor) y desde luego ni PoE ni TOW le llegan a la suela de los zapatos.

Coño, aprovecha la marca. Aprovecha el tirón de la serie y venden millones.

Berti

Yemeth Yo valoro infinito las nuevas ideas y los sucesores espirituales de este tipo, me gusta que Pillars sea el BG de Obsidian y The Outer World su Fallout, le pueden meter ideas propias y todo eso. Me gusta que Bioshock y Prey no sea Systemshock 3 y sean su propia cosa y personalmente no hay mucha cosa de rol espacial con esos valores de producción, hay que irse a Mass Effect o Starfield (xd).
Fallout nació de la misma forma respecto a Wasteland.

Por ventas no digo nada, si les salva hacerlo que lo hagan pero me gusta mucho todo el carrusel de nuevas ips que tienen.

TheElf A ver si resucitan la saga

PAL

TheElf A ver si resucitan la saga para los nuevos jugadores que se engancharon con el BG 3 a los turnos.

Supongo que el motivo es ese.

Ojalá vendiera bien para ese público, pero no sé yo si el primer Pillars es lo mejor para intentar vender un Pillars 3 de las dimensiones de BG3...

Se han metido ellos solos en ese berenjenal con esta oleada de RPG's de estilo cartoon con ese diseño de personajes tan... moderno por no decir algo peor.

Cuando, como parte de la publicidad ponen el video de los compañeros del juego y enseñan esto:

Con estos personajes de estética tan... digamos moderna otra vez, soltando frases de "humor" propias de la última peli de Spiderman, ya se han quitado el 95% de público potencial de jugadores de RPG en PC de una tacada.

Recuerdo el hype que había con el teaser de Avowed y las pajas mentales que nos montábamos todos, hasta que mostraron el primer gameplay con ese estilo visual y esos personajes que parecen tener enanismo y el suflé bajó a toda hostia

sonicsaiyan

Rascar_Capac Pero la saga The Outer World nunca ha pretendido ser seria, desde la primera entrega ya se ve que el tono de la saga es hacer un RPG desenfadado y con toques de humor que como base se ríe de las megacorporaciones

Memphisto

Rascar_Capac
De ahí he conocido ya a tres y no me parecen malos acompañantes. Al final es un rpg de humor al que le pegan ese tipo de personajes.

QuentinTarantiros

Rascar_Capac estilo cartoon con ese diseño de personajes tan... moderno por no decir algo peor.

Tranquilo, seguro que la gente "moderna" lo comprará y venderá varios millones sisi

Amor_Eterno

Hiigara pero Bioware no es de Microsoft...

Hiigara

Amor_Eterno No es de Microsoft TODAVÍA.

Lo decía más como deseo que como posibilidad real. Creo que al universo de Mass Effect le sentaría de fábula un juego tipo Obsidian, con luchas entre facciones/especies, conflictos más pequeños en los que nadie tiene toda la razón, decisiones con consecuencias de verdad...
