The Outer Worlds, the popular open-world RPG from Obsidian Entertainment, is getting a new edition called Spacer's Choice. This includes the base game and both DLCs, Peril on Gorgon and Murder on Eridanos. Spacer's Choice will be available from March 7th and brings numerous improvements with it.
Improved Graphics and Performance
Spacer's Choice Edition will offer improved graphics featuring better particle effects and volumetric lighting. The Xbox Series X and PS5 versions of the game will run at 4K/60FPS, while the Xbox Series S version will target a lower resolution at 60 FPS.
But there's more: PS5 players will be pleased to hear about adaptive trigger support and improved haptic feedback.
Paid Upgrade
However, Spacer's Choice Edition is not a free upgrade. Players who already own the base game and DLCs will have to pay to upgrade to the new edition. This paid upgrade has caused a lot of discontent among players, as it is a practice that is not well received in the gaming community.
Some players see it as exploiting their loyalty to the game, while others find the upgrade to be disproportionately expensive.
Conclusion
The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition will come with some improvements and offer a way for players who don't already own the game to get all the content at once. However, the paid upgrade option has caused negative headlines and will surely anger some fans.
