About Outward

Outward is developed and published by Nine Dots Studio, originally released in 2019 with the Definitive Edition consolidating all content in 2022. It is an open-world RPG set in the fantasy world of Aurai, distinguished from genre peers by its survival mechanics and non-hero framing, the player character is an ordinary person in debt, not a chosen saviour. The game does not feature a traditional HUD health display, level scaling, or fast travel in most areas, requiring players to manage stamina, hunger, thirst, sleep, and environmental conditions (temperature, disease, bleeding) as core gameplay systems. The world is static-level, enemies near the starting area remain at fixed difficulty regardless of player progression, meaning early zones stay dangerous throughout the playthrough. The game supports full two-player online and split-screen co-op throughout the entire campaign.

Definitive Edition - What's Included

• Outward base game — full Aurai open world, three faction storylines (Blue Chamber Collective, Heroic Kingdom of Levant, Holy Mission of Elatt), survival mechanics, and base combat system
• The Soroboreans DLC — new Antique Plateau region, Sorobor Academy faction, Ethereal damage type, Corruption mechanic, and new skill trees
• The Three Brothers DLC — new Caldera volcanic region, new faction storyline, additional skills, enemies, and endgame content

Key Features

• Survival mechanics as core gameplay - not optional: Hunger, thirst, fatigue, sleep, temperature, disease, bleeding, and poison all affect the player character permanently until addressed. There is no regenerating health. Resting at a camp or inn restores health but advances time. Combat injuries must be treated with specific items. Dying does not end the game, Outward uses a "death consequence" system where the player wakes up in a random location (captured, rescued, or lost) rather than reloading a save.
• Static world - no level scaling: Enemy difficulty is fixed to location, not player level. Early-game areas remain dangerous at any point in the playthrough. The game does not hold the player's hand, exploring the wrong area early results in genuine difficulty. Navigation requires a physical map and compass; there is no mini-map or quest markers pointing directly to objectives.
• Three factions with distinct storylines: At a point early in the game, the player permanently aligns with one of three factions, Blue Chamber Collective, Heroic Kingdom of Levant, or Holy Mission of Elatt. Each faction has a unique questline, home base, and ending. A full playthrough of all three factions requires three separate runs.
• Full co-op - online and split-screen: The entire game including both DLC campaigns supports two-player co-op via online or local split-screen. Both players share the same world state and progress through the story together. Co-op significantly changes the survival balance, two players can cover more ground and share resource management responsibilities.
• Legacy System: When starting a new character, the Legacy Chest mechanic allows passing selected items and gear from a completed playthrough to the new character. This creates a progression arc across multiple runs, each new faction playthrough can begin with legacy gear from the previous one.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between Outward and Outward Definitive Edition? is there still a base game?
The Outward Definitive Edition (2022) is the current version of the game, bundling the original 2019 base game with both major expansions: The Soroboreans and The Three Brothers. The original base game without DLC is no longer separately available for purchase on Steam, the Definitive Edition is the standard purchase. This cd key activates the complete package. If you previously owned the base game on Steam, the Definitive Edition upgrade was offered as a separate paid upgrade,  this key is a fresh standalone activation.

Is Outward too difficult for a solo player? is co-op required?
Outward is designed as a solo-completable experience, and the majority of players finish it in single player. The survival systems and non-scaling world create genuine challenge, but no content is gated behind co-op. Co-op changes the balance significantly, two players share resource management and combat coverage, making survival easier. Solo play rewards careful preparation, camp management, and route planning. The game's difficulty is more about resource management and preparation than reflexes, which makes it more approachable than action-heavy games once the survival systems are understood.

Does Outward have multiple endings? do I need multiple playthroughs?
Yes. Each of the three factions (Blue Chamber Collective, Heroic Kingdom of Levant, Holy Mission of Elatt) has a unique questline and ending. A single playthrough covers one faction's story. The base game therefore has three distinct playthroughs for full story content, plus additional runs for The Soroboreans and The Three Brothers DLC content. The Legacy System allows passing items between runs, giving each successive playthrough a head start with gear from the previous character.
