The Outer Worlds, the sci-fi RPG developed by Obsidian and involving writers of the original Fallout games, has officially received a release date on the Nintendo Switch. The game was already released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One in October 2019. Switch owners will be able to grab their copy of the game this March 6th. The announcement comes from a tweet by the game's publisher Private Division:

Still kinda short for an RPG game, especially compared to New Vegas

makes perfect sense, if devs want to be lazy and not include a gamecard with a physical purchase then i have no reason to buy it. I am video game collector and digital copy of a game means its worth nothing.

No card makes no sense, not your post

ohhhh lol ok

How is it physical if theres nothing physically there??? Stupid shit love the game but i say pirate this lol graphics wont hold up on switch like other systems. Wheres the good games like mario its all switch is good for

Collectors to me don’t make sense in the world of digital technology. People forgot, starting with late ps3 releases; PS3/4, xbox one and nintendo switch games each have an unique serial code per copy. With an update to your console, they can easily disable your games! ToS agreements in many newer games state as such in fine print. Hell, dragon ball k even says outright, you have bought the right to play regardless if obtained digitally or physically! So your excuse for all’s guaranteed to be playable has long since been dead.

Yeah seeing the outer worlds has more a cartoon vibe to it and hasn't realistic graphics i do see this scaling down low settings wise quite nicely. Scaling down view distance, low textures, more pop in and a couple other features that don't take 2 much away from it will make it run probably just fine on the switch without taking away too much from it. Even potato computers can run it quite fine and even with some hit or miss older 2gig graphic cards

Get your plastic edition collector's case and put it on the altar to summon Greta's fury.

There's much more to a game than the way it is stored.

This was a major disappointment for me, and I'm a die hard obsidian fan. I would have purchased this in a heartbeat for the Switch, except I played it on PC via gamepass and was already introduced to it's mediocrity on that platform. Pass.

 

[pedro702]

no cartridge is a skip for me for sure.

 

[DANTENDO]

Those who are crying over no game cartridge just to let you kno when you die you stil hav no game cartridge

 

[Deleted User]

I would pick it up if there was an actual cart.

 

[Bladexdsl]

too late the game sux and is too short

30 hours ain't short think you forget people hav jobs and may only hav couple of hours a day to play games - don't kno why people are comparing to Vegas it's not Vegas 2
