Outward 2

 
Outward 2 is the ambitious sequel to the cult survival RPG from Nine Dots Studio. Set 50 years after the first game, it once again challenges players to survive and thrive in the vast, untamed region of Aurai. However, this time, nearly every aspect is expanded—combat is more flexible, the world feels more alive, and every journey is packed with fresh dangers and discoveries.
True Immersion, Meaningful Survival
The game rejects the power fantasy common to most RPGs. Instead, you are just another adventurer—vulnerable to cold, hunger, wounds, and even exhaustion. There is no fast travel, no hand-holding tutorials, and no imposed scaling; every location must be mapped and every battle prepared for. Enemies don’t politely wait their turn; they swarm you, using their numbers and environment to gain the upper hand. Players must set up camps, sleep to recover, cook their food, and manage weather hazards. You can also use caves and natural shelters to escape the elements. Co-op remains a core pillar, so you and a friend can plan, fight, and survive together in split-screen or online multiplayer.
Refined Combat and Exploration
Combat in Outward 2 is more dynamic than before—which means you can dual wield any weapon, use shields more flexibly, and even set up traps and magical sigils for tactical encounters. Dodging, blocking, and attack timing are crucial to victory, and even common wildlife can be dangerous without the right preparation. The game runs on Unreal Engine, promising better visuals, denser content, and deeper simulation than its predecessor. Exploration has been redesigned: every trip off the beaten path offers true risk and reward, with secrets, natural hazards, and new lore everywhere you go.
