Private Division and Obsidian Entertainment have announced that The Outer Worlds will be releasing on Nintendo Switch. The title will first arrive on Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC on October 25, 2019 with the Nintendo Switch platform getting it at a later time with no currently set release date.

This will bring the full magic of the RPG to this handheld or docked console. Experience the thrill of making dynamic choices, and the maturity of the narrative behind this exciting game.

The Outer Worlds is a new single-player first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division. Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the furthest edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy the Halcyon colony.

As you explore the furthest reaches of space and encounter various factions, all vying for power, the character you decide to become will determine how this player-driven story unfolds. In the corporate equation for the colony, you are the unplanned variable.
