Outriders also rewards more aggressive gameplay styles, where there isn’t passive health regeneration behind cover, but health rewarded for kills and damage dealt. Boss encounters will have you contend with atypical mechanics, and will need you to scrutinize your loadout. Rare weapons also have unique effects in gameplay and are worth collecting and discerning between. There’s a skill tree for each class that provides three different play styles with various passive abilities and traits. I chose the Vanguard class, geared towards tanking, and unlocked abilities where I could soak damage by encasing my body in stone, and reflecting damage back at enemies. It’s the game’s first major hub, where you can take on various missions.Ĭombat is in third-person and you’ll be using a variety of weapons as well as special class-based abilities set on cooldown timers. It’s here where the game fully begins, in a settlement besieged on all sides. It seems the problems that plagued Earth in it’s final moments have only been transposed to Enoch. Upon release, the Outrider discovers that humanity has settled on Enoch, but the vicious environmental hazards make resources incredibly scarce and various factions, including those altered by anomaly storms, war against each other for control. However, not all goes according to plan, “Anomaly storms” devastate the campaign and “alter” the protagonist, giving them superhuman abilities - but it’s not before they’re locked away in cryostasis for 30 years. The planet Enoch is deemed a worthy candidate, and an expedition is launched in the attempt to colonize the planet for human habitation. After creating an Outrider in a somewhat-limited character creator, the story begins with an interstellar voyage to find the next home for humanity after society’s collapse and Earth’s destruction. The demo contains roughly three hours of questing content from the very start of the game. Outriders, a new class-based looter shooter developed by People Can Fly ( Gears of War Judgment, Bulletstorm) and published by Square Enix, launched a free demo last week on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
