The Outer Worlds to Host Twitch Stream Before Release

Obsidian Entertainment plans to host a live stream on Twitch Plays for sci-fi RPG title The Outer Worlds ahead of release.

Anticipation around upcoming action role-playing game The Outer Worlds from developer Obsidian Entertainment and publisher Private Division is steering through roofs as it approaches near launch date of October 25, 2019.

To do something rather different to promote their upcoming title among video game loving curious crowd, Obsidian decided to live stream their latest first-person sci-fi RPG on Twitch platform days before worldwide release.

News came out earlier that TOW will be a pre-release title for Twitch Plays, starting from October 22, 3 PM PT/6 PM EST. It would surely be interesting to see a playthrough ahead of official launch and what story we ended up on.

The Outer Worlds is going to become first ever unreleased Twitch Plays title ever but unlike many other games, it will not have an open-ended outcome because of a player-driven narrative and could lead to total chaos all over.

Back in 2014, Twitch Plays was introduced as an interactive stream where viewers will make in-game decisions by typing into chat and then a bot will input those commands into game, which turned out to be a huge success for the platform.

Initial test run for their steam was Twitch Plays Pokémon and it took so long to complete as people were driving player character in wrong directions every time but the social experiment was proven to be a success nevertheless.

Since RPG titles are driven by choice, it may go so many ways and apparently, Obsidian is on board with that idea of marketing because it will create an anarchical playstyle with some contribution from community which completely suits TOW.

The Outer Worlds will arrive on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One platforms very shortly, followed by a Nintendo Switch version that was announced a few months back, to take players to Halcyon colony on edge of the galaxy.
