Curious about whether The Outer Worlds will live up to the high expectations we all have from the developers of all-time RPG classics like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords and Fallout: New Vegas (among others)? Good news: we're currently playing through, and our review will go up on the site at 6:00am on Tuesday, October 22 – three days before The Outer Worlds' release date of Friday, October 25.

That's all we can say for right now, but fortunately we've already said a whole bunch about The Outer Worlds (not to be confused with Outer Wilds ) that you can brush up on while you wait for the review to finish cooking.

For example, you can watch the whole first 20 minutes of gameplay below.
