Will OUTRIDERS have a story?
Yes! OUTRIDERS is a story driven RPG-Shooter that will put the player in the shoes of an Outrider, the last hope of the human race trapped on Enoch, a dangerous and untamed planet. The campaign can be played entirely in single player, or in co-op with up to three players.
Can I hide HUD/UI elements when playing?
OUTRIDERS features a variety of customization options, including turning various parts of the HUD and UI on and off. You will also be able to turn off enemy/ally health bars as well as damage numbers.
Can I adjust the difficulty of the game?
OUTRIDERS features up to 15 different “World Tiers”, which will strongly change the way the game is played and experienced. While World Tiers will adjust to your playstyle as you progress in order to keep the game challenging, you can also change your World Tier manually according to your preferences.
Will Outriders feature PVP?
The question of PvP is asked a lot, but right from the earliest concept, Outriders has been designed as a PvE game. We’re committed to making the best single-player and Co-op RPG shooter out there
How long is the game?
This is entirely dependant on how you play the game. Focusing on just the main campaign by itself on a single class will take around 25-30 hours, but it will take 2-3 times that long if you play all the side quests, post-campaign and additional content in Outriders. We’ve made sure that there’s no right or wrong way to play the game and that you’ll always have a great experience. If you just want to complete the main campaign, you’ll experience the full story and have a great time with this game. But if you want to spend more time in the world of Outriders, getting the best items and taking on the hardest challenges in the game, it can keep you busy for exponentially longer.
In what way will exploration be rewarded in Outriders?
Straying from the beaten track and exploring the world of Enoch is a big part of Outriders. Not only will you be rewarded with gear, opportunities to hunt down special enemies and challenging combat encounters, but you will also uncover the mysteries of Enoch.
Can we have multiple characters in the same account?
Everyone will have access to up to 6 character slots, which you can fill with whichever classes you desire. You’ll also have a stash which can be used to share items between characters.
Why are there 4 classes but only groups of 3 players?
We tested different amounts of players in co-op, but 3 players was the perfect max-player sweet-spot for balancing, optimization and visibility. Especially with all the movement skills and visual effects from powers, when playing with four people the battlefield got way too chaotic and hard to read.
Why are certain animations so short or subtle?
Outriders is a game that’s focused around frenetic skill plus speed and our skills are designed and animated directly to play to that design. Big wind-up animations make sense for skills that are extremely powerful, but if you're looking to interrupt a boss to prevent your team being wiped, you will no doubt appreciate an immediate effect skill more than something with a big song and dance to it.
When will OUTRIDERS release?
Outriders will release 01 April 2021.
Will Outriders support Smart Delivery on Xbox? Will we get a free upgrade to PlayStation 5?
Yes. Anyone who purchases the game for Xbox One or PlayStation 4, will get a free upgrade to Xbox One X, Xbox Series S and PlayStation 5 respectively.
