Outcast 2: A New Starting was introduced final September with a cinematic trailer. We acquired a glimpse of the sport itself this week, together with jetpacking, fight, and Cutter Slade’s thick eyebrows.
They’re as thick as slugs:
The unique Outcast was launched in 1999 and was exceptional for its non-linear open world, in addition to its unusual alien world. It acquired a devoted remake, Outcast: Second Contact, again in 2017, however it was maybe too devoted to be welcoming to newcomers.
Straight sequel Outcast: A New Starting seems to be making extra concessions in direction of modernity, a minimum of by way of the slickness of its fight. There’s nonetheless lots within the trailer above that makes clear it is nonetheless Outcast, although. For one, it is once more set on the planet of Adelpha, which is now being overrun by robotic invaders from Earth. You play as a resurrected Cutter Slade, trying to repel the invaders and free the Talans.
Outcast was a distinct segment sport even in its personal day, and an try to Kickstart the reboot failed in 2014. (It was ultimately printed by Bigben Interactive.) For that cause, my assumption was that any sequel would fail to garner a lot consideration, besides from a number of people who find themselves cross about the best way it is modified. That does not appear to be the case from wanting on the YouTube feedback on the video above. It is hardly consultant, however it’s full of excited followers of the unique discussing references within the new trailer to the unique sport.
Outcast: A New Starting would not have a launch date but, however you may discover extra screenshots and a few bulletpoints on its Steam web page.
