Overview

  • Revealed during Gamescom Opening Night Live, the trailer introduces companions Niles, Valerie, Aza, Inez, Marisol, and Tristan.
  • An explicit on-screen note states players cannot pursue romantic or sexual relationships with companions.
  • Niles is presented as a cyborg mechanic and pistol user, while Valerie is a floating robot focused on healing and damage reduction.
  • Aza appears as a dagger-wielding Glorious Dawn operative, Inez as an Auntie’s Choice field medic, Marisol as an Order of the Ascendant assassin, and Tristan as a hammer-wielding enforcer.
  • The new look reinforces the series’ snarky, quippy tone as The Outer Worlds 2 stays on track for its October 29 release on Xbox Series X/S and PC.
