Microsoft will publish The Outer Worlds sequels

It's been fun, Private Division...

Microsoft will publish future The Outer Worlds sequels by developer Obsidian, it’s recently been revealed.

The original The Outer Worlds — and all of its DLC including the most recent Murder on Eridanos — were published by Private Division in an agreement made before Microsoft acquisition of Obsidian.

Now, Private Division has confirmed that Microsoft, not it, will publish any future titles in the franchise.

“Private Division is still supporting and marketing The Outer Worlds, including the upcoming release of Murder on Eridanos DLC on Nintendo Switch,” the publisher told Gamasutra. “Moving forward, Obsidian and Microsoft will be publishing future iterations in the franchise, and we’re absolutely thrilled to see where they take it.”

The Outer Worlds is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4 and PS5. No sequels have been announced as yet.
