Outcast 2: A New Beginning was introduced final September with a cinematic trailer. We acquired a glimpse of the sport itself this week, together with jetpacking, fight, and Cutter Slade’s thick eyebrows.

They’re as thick as slugs:

The authentic Outcast was launched in 1999 and was exceptional for its non-linear open world, in addition to its unusual alien world. It acquired a trustworthy remake, Outcast: Second Contact, again in 2017, however it was maybe too trustworthy to be welcoming to newcomers.

Straight sequel Outcast: A New Beginning seems to be to be making extra concessions in direction of modernity, a minimum of when it comes to the slickness of its fight. There’s nonetheless loads within the trailer above that makes clear it is nonetheless Outcast, although. For one, it is once more set on the planet of Adelpha, which is now being overrun by robotic invaders from Earth. You play as a resurrected Cutter Slade, making an attempt to repel the invaders and free the Talans.

Outcast was a distinct segment sport even in its personal day, and an try to Kickstart the reboot failed in 2014. (It was finally printed by Bigben Interactive.) For that cause, my assumption was that any sequel would fail to garner a lot consideration, besides from just a few people who find themselves cross about the way in which it is modified. That does not appear to be the case from trying on the YouTube feedback on the video above. It’s hardly consultant, however it’s stuffed with excited followers of the unique discussing references within the new trailer to the unique sport.

Outcast: A New Beginning does not have a launch date but, however you will discover extra screenshots and a few bulletpoints on its Steam web page.
