Fallout creator Tim Cain has offered a glimpse at a pre-release vertical slice of The Outer Worlds, praising his team for how quickly they put the game together.
In a new video, Cain, who directed The Outer Worlds and is consulting on the upcoming sequel The Outer Worlds 2, says that developer Obsidian allowed him to share the pre-release footage. Cain explains that this 'vertical slice' served as something of a proof of concept that Obsidian had to send to publisher Private Division to show that development was coming along as planned. A vertical slice is intended to function much like the finished game, and Cain says that while the player is blocked off some certain functions in this build, this piece of development was so successful that it did actually make it into the final release.
