Poll: So, Are You Playing The Outer Worlds 2 In Early Access?

Technically, The Outer Worlds 2 is out now, despite its official release date coming on October 29th. Yep, Obsidian's latest RPG is the next game to implement a pretty big early access window if you're willing to pay for it - so our poll question this weekend revolves around whether you're indeed willing to pay for The Outer Worlds 2 early access.

Given that the game's Premium Upgrade can be added to an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription to jump in and play early, this is certainly going to be a tempting way for fans to play The Outer Worlds 2 five days ahead of its formal launch. We've seen before that these premium upgrade packs can be very, very popular!

For what it's worth, we very much enjoyed our opening few hours with The Outer Worlds 2 - and the game's reviews have been coming in pretty positive as well. We can't say whether paying for the upgrade — which contains DLC too, by the way — is truly worth it, but Obsidian's third big game of the year has had a pretty smooth launch, so the extensive early access window does have that going for it.

Anyway, yeah, we want to know your plans with The Outer Worlds 2! Are you getting stuck into early access already? Are you waiting for the standard edition release, potentially via Game Pass? Give us a pick in the poll below and chat about your choice down in the comments section.
