Fans have been wondering if and how Outriders will expand the game after what appears to be at least modest success in the loot shooter genre. As I’ve said many times, it’s a game that really got the fundamentals right, and now…something new is coming. Unfortunately, today is an announcement for an announcement, and even though I’ve played the new content, I agreed not to talk about it for a few more days. But something is coming, and here’s what People Can Fly said today about the reveal showcase for the new Outriders content, called New Horizon:“The next Outriders Broadcast will give players a first look at a colossal free content update coming to Outriders soon, as well as a review of the many improvements to the game since its launch in April. Tune in to find out more about the future of Outriders.”The showcase is on Monday, November 15 at 9 AM PT/12 PM ET, and will detail the new content, as well as “review” changes that have already been made, as a lot of people have probably missed a lot of the game’s big patches over the past few months. Previously, Outriders said that they would expand in the future. Here’s the past quote about that:“We never said that we would abandon the game,” said Creative Director Bartek Kmita. “This isn’t a games-as-a-service, but if people like it, we will definitely be doing more things in the Outriders universe. We have so many more stories to tell, and a lot of ideas we want to explore that we couldn’t fit in the original game, so we’re happy to create more content in the future. Anything we would make would be in the form of significant expansions with self-contained stories.”Again, I have played the new content in a session with Square Enix and other journalists and creators, which took place last week. I really can’t say anything else about it until the 15th, but I have thoughts, footage, the whole nine yards, so check back then and I will give you the full rundown about what’s coming. This is the first broadcast of this kind since the game launched, and the first actual content update that wasn’t just a buff/nerf/fix patch, where we’ve seen many of those since the game launched in April 2021. As for the longer term future of Outriders past this update? That’s something we’ll have to discuss later on too…See you on Monday, there will be plenty to talk about.
