Hello Travelers, New posters are now available! You might be saying “Hey, these look familiar.” And you’d be right!

Once again, these are illustrated by Mobius Digital artist Ian Jacobson. They’re available individually or as a set.Each poster measures 21 x 29cm, or 8.2 x 11.4 inchesAnd each are signed by Ian.

There are a few games that I wish I could play for the first time again. Kingdom Hearts 2, Subnautica, and Minecraft, to name a few, but if I had a Neuralizer from Men in Black, I'd wipe my memory of Outer Wilds. As a fan of the best space games and someone who loves a good ol' time-looping adventure, I admire the mechanical brilliance of Outer Wilds, but the narrative alone makes it a big enough reason to buy this game, and right now it's down to its cheapest price ever.

Six years after the release of the most excellent sci-fi camping game Outer Wilds, developer Mobius Digital is working on something new, a fact it let slip in a recently-released update—which is also the final "major update" planned for the game.0... Read more.

When you think of the greatest space games, it's easy to default to scale. The thousands of planets of Starfield, the infinite galaxies of No Man's Sky, the swirling systems of Eve Online, and the sheer expanse of Elite Dangerous. Outer Wilds is different. It's smaller, tighter, meticulously designed down to the smallest grain of sand. Yet despite that, or perhaps because of it, developer Mobius Digital created the most enrapturing and memorable game about interstellar exploration ever made. Now, the team confirms that it's hard at work on something new. Read the rest of the story... RELATED L

Patch 16 Changes (Steam only, other platforms coming soon): This minor patch is now out on Steam only, but will be brought to all other platforms except Nintendo Switch in late May. If you’re not on Steam, don’t worry, you’re not missing out! This is a minor patch mainly for adding a couple folks to the credits and fixing two PC-only bugs: clicking out of the game disabling certain inputs (such as the key for the ship’s lock on), which affected streamers in particular, and diagonal movement being faster than normal with mouse and keyboard. Why stagger the releases like this? It’s to increase t

Hello Travelers, There’s been so much new Outer Wilds merch the past year that we’ve made a little guide to it all! There have also been restocks of some of the more popular items, like the Outer Wilds Soundtrack Vinyl. A lot of our partners are doing sales and promotions for the holidays, so be sure to take a look. You can read this same update on our website by clicking here. In particular, we want to highlight a project over 2 years in the making: The Hearthian Lander Model Kit!

One of the greatest space games ever made is having a very brief Steam sale right now, and it is absolutely an essential pick-up if you're waiting eagerly for the Starfield release date. Outer Wilds is a very difficult game to talk about without spoiling even just the core concept, so if you want to go in completely blind and have somehow missed the core conceit, we recommend it while the Outer Wilds sale is still on.

The enigmatic system of Outer Wilds is packed with scary things you wouldn’t want running around in real life: spine-tingling cosmic anglerfish, endless time loops, and a bunch of existential dread. (Oh, wait a minute.) Although, the spacefaring adventure has at least one tool that would be handy in everyday situations: the translator. One Redditor has thankfully recreated a functional version of the translator and this clip shows the delightfully faithful tool. Read more

I'm as excited as the next person for the Starfield release date, but there's a more urgent deadline on the horizon for those of you subscribed to Microsoft's PC Game Pass service. Outer Wilds, one of the best space games of all time (and certainly one of the most important, in my humble opinion), is leaving the subscription service on January 1. If you haven't played it yet, don't worry - that's still more than enough time to experience the wonder for yourself. Read the rest of the story...
