Obsidian have filed 4 logos for one thing known as The Outer Worlds

The 4 logos relate to “entertainment services, namely, providing online games,” “board games/trading card games,” “printed material [such as books, pamphlets, or instruction manuals] in the field of computer or video games,” and “computer game software” respectively. All 4 had been filed on January 24, 2018.

The identify “The Outer Worlds” is all now we have to go on at this level. As one consumer on the Obsidian forums identified, there’s a 2016 novel additionally known as The Outer Worlds, however as all of Obsidian’s logos are listed as new functions, it appears unlikely that there’s any crossover between the ebook and no matter Obsidian are planning to make use of the trademark for.

Speculation amongst the Obsidian group appears to be that The Outer Worlds is the identify of the corporate’s unannounced venture, headed by Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky. The firm tweeted in November 2017 to counsel that they had been engaged on a brand new venture, and a Eurogamer video talked about the existence of 4 initiatives again in August; three of these are thought to narrate to Tyranny, Pathfinder Adventures, and Pillars of Eternity 2, so it’s potential that the logos relate to the identify of the studio’s subsequent title. Don’t get too excited but although, as Obsidian’s new recreation received’t be out till at the least Q2 2019.
