'Outer Wilds' (ALL) Delayed Until 2019

by Rainier on Dec. 20, 2018 @ 5:35 p.m. PST

Outer Wilds is an open world mystery where you explore a solar system trapped in a 20-minute time loop.

Blast off into a fully physically simulated cosmos and seamlessly journey from planet to planet in search of the answers hidden in the unknown.

You're the newest recruit of Outer Wilds Ventures, a fledgling space program searching for answers in a strange, constantly evolving solar system.

What lurks in the heart of the ominous Dark Bramble? Who built the alien ruins on the Moon? Can the endless time loop be stopped? Answers await you in the most dangerous reaches of space.

Inspired by the unusual combination of backpacking through national parks and the dangers of the vast darkness of space, Outer Wilds is a game about exploring for the sake of curiosity. Mobius Digital have created a hand-crafted solar system filled with secrets to discover and perils to avoid, using dynamic physics simulation to add to the thrill of exploring space. Players are given a variety of tools to aid in space-backpacking: including their own spaceship and jetpack; a surveyor probe for scouting and taking pictures; and a signal scope to track down audio signals as well as view landmarks from afar.

Announced during E3 as coming in 2018, this has now officially been pushed back until 2019.

Hello everyone!
