The Outer Worlds. It’s a game I haven’t thought about much since reviewing The Outer Worlds 2 last year, and it’s just gotten its first patch in about three years. That’s because Obsidian are planning to delist its base version from storefronts at the end of this month, leaving the more polished Spacer’s Choice edition as the definitive Outer Worlds going forwards. They’re also adding grenades to it, as an apparent make good aimed at pyromaniacs.

The first of two patches is live for the RPG already, though it just fixes some bugs. A second patch arriving soon will go a bit further adding the grenades in addition to a bucket of other fixes. That’s cool, but not the main headline here.

“Along with the second patch, we have big store changes planned. Starting May 27th, the base game edition of The Outer Worlds will be delisted and the Spacer’s Choice Edition will be the single version of the game going forward,” Obsidian wrote on Steam. “For those who already have the original version of the game in your libraries, it won’t be going anywhere. After May 27th, however, the only version of The Outer Worlds that will be available on most store pages will be the Spacer’s Choice Edition.”

As part of that, anyone who owns the base version of the game as of May 27th will have it swapped for the Spacer’s Choice edition for free. For reference, the base version of The Outer Worlds sans DLC currently costs £24.99 / €29.99 / $29.99, while the Spacer’s Choice edition that comes with the Peril on Gorgon and Murder on Eridanos DLCs costs £49.99 / €59.99 / $59.99. Though, after May 27th, the Spacer’s Choice edition will be getting a price cut to $39.99/equivalents.

So, not ideal for preservation or folks who want to buy the DLCless version for cheap, but won’t have the means to do so before the switch. That said, Obsidian are at least giving folks who want to grab that version some runway to do so, as well as automatically switching everyone to the swankier version that comes with all of the performance/graphical bells and whistles the devs rolled out in their next-gen console update.

Here’s our review of the first Outer Worlds, in case you’ve not tried it yet and this change has you thinking now might be the time.
