The Outer Worlds 2 Needs a Target Audience — Humorous Live-Action Trailer Released

The launch of The Outer Worlds 2 is imminent, and only recently has Obsidian Entertainment started to clarify who the new game is intended for.

This follow-up to the 2019 title is scheduled for release on October 29, 2025 for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PS5. The developers promise a classic sequel loaded with the elements that fans adored in the original. Yet the question remains: who is the game aimed at?

In its signature humorous style, Obsidian put together a trailer dedicated to answering that very question. The spot emphasizes the search for an audience rather than showcasing gameplay or story beats — it’s an exploration of who the studio hopes to attract and how to earn top marks from players and critics. The entire presentation is intentionally over-the-top, highlighting the team’s ironic approach.

The trailer makes it clear that Obsidian is once again betting on wit and unconventional presentation, without losing sight of its fanbase.
