One of the games that pioneered the open-world format is getting a long awaited sequel, and we finally know when.
Outcast: A New Beginning, announced earlier this year, is expected to launch on March 15, 2024. That's a hefty quarter of a century after the first game released on June 25, 1999, but it's looking all the better for it. The game will see hero Cutter Slade returning to the fantastical alien world of Adelpha in an open world action epic, featuring "light RPG" mechanics such as skill trees and NPC dialogue, according to THQ Nordic producers Michael Paeck and Andreas Schmiedecker during a hands-off preview of the game.
