The Outer Worlds 2: A Potential Addition to the PlayStation Universe?

The Outer Worlds 2's imminent arrival has obliterated the gaming community's anticipation radar after it was proclaimed at E3 2021. While initial exclusivity was presumed for Xbox and PC gamers since Microsoft owns Obsidian (the game's developer), recent details suggest the game might also grace the PlayStation platforms, brightening the panorama for PS aficionados.

According to a report on Gamereactor, The Outer Worlds 2 may not be entirely off-limits for PlayStation gamers. In his chat with Le Figaro, Xbox Game Studios President Matt Booty shed light on this. He insinuated that legacy agreements are touched upon across a game-by-game basis, implying that previous contracts with platforms could permit The Outer Worlds 2 to launch on PlayStation. 

The impact of this statement has been profound as it has somewhat neutralized the exclusive prowess of Microsoft. It is insightful to remember that the first Outer Worlds game was released in 2019 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, and later for the Nintendo Switch. Hence, extending the sequel to other platforms along the "Legacy Titles" path seems plausible.

However, it is crucial to bear in mind that Microsoft has not yet officially revealed any guaranteed release platform details for the much-lauded sequel to The Outer Worlds. Despite the potential implication of the sequel appearing on PlayStation, the hard-boiled truth remains that nothing has been distinctly disclosed by the creators thus far.

The prospect of The Outer Worlds 2 arriving on PlayStation platforms remains an enticing yet uncertain prospect, much like a flickering flame that could either brighten or be extinguished. Gamers are on the edge of their seats, eager for any official news that could seal the deal. While excitement builds, the ultimate decision as to whether The Outer Worlds 2 will grace the PlayStation experience rests with time and the discretion of Microsoft.
