Obsidian has no plans to make The Outer Worlds 3, likely due to poor sales


Developer Obsidian recently announced that it currently has no plans to make The Outer Worlds 3, . Company head Fergus Urquhart didn’t give a reason as to why Obsidian won’t be working on a sequel, but he did note that the performance of The Outer Worlds 2 was “disappointing” and that it needs to “think a lot about how much we put into the games, how much we spend on them and how long they take.”

Urquhart also said that Avowed was something of a miss for the company, but that it remains committed to the franchise. Obsidian plans to “keep making games in the Avowed universe,” but that doesn’t necessarily mean a legitimate sequel. Avowed is, after all, set in the same world as Pillars of Eternity.

Obsidian is still working on DLC for The Outer Worlds 2, so fans have that to look forward to. Urquhart also confirmed the company is making some DLC for Grounded 2, . It released three games last year, which Urquhart said was a bad move for support teams.

“Spacing those releases helps the company manage its resources and not burn everybody out. It’s not good to release three games in the same year. It’s the result of things going wrong,” he said.

The developer is also making some entirely new games, of which we know nothing about. As for Avowed, it’s coming to . All versions are getting an anniversary update that includes a New Game Plus mode, new races, new weapon types and more. It’s a good game and of PlayStation fans, especially those who have dabbled with The Elder Scrolls franchise.
