It might not come as much of a surprise given its excellent reception, but it looks like Obsidian is working on a sequel to last year's popular action-RPG The Outer Worlds, at least according to one insider.
This comes from Niko Partners senior analyst Daniel Ahmad, who has suggested that the most recent update he's heard is that The Outer Worlds 2 is in a pre-production phase:
Ultimately, this means the company could be working on The Outer Worlds 2, the recently-released Grounded and ambitious fantasy RPG Avowed, alongside anything else that it might have in the pipeline.
Before it arrives though, you'll be able to enjoy an optimised version of The Outer Worlds on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S at some point in the (hopefully) near future, and it'll be playable with backwards compatibility at launch as well.

I would love a new entry! I immensely enjoyed playing Outer Worlds.
Having Outer Worlds 2, Avowed, Fallout New Vegas 2/New Orleans, Elder Scrolls 6, Starfield, and Fallout 5 all exclusive to Xbox would be a big deal for me.
Nice, I never got around to playing the outer worlds yet but i'm excited to play it eventually on Series X
@Richnj They won't be though.
@Menchi I mean, they'll definitely be on PC, but since all these games are so far off, there's no certainty about their appearance on Nintendo or PS platforms.
Going to be literally spoilt for choice for rpgs on xbox in the future
@StylesT Yeah, I think it's only just dawning on me how strong the xbox RPG franchises are now.
Fable, Pillars of Eternity, Outer Worlds, Avowed, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Starfield, Wasteland, and the inXile action RPG.
The only thing I need now is a reboot or sequel to Too Human.
I really need to give The Outer Worlds another go. Was really enjoying it but stopped playing and never got round to picking it back up.
Hope it makes it to Series S/X.
I really enjoyed The Outer Worlds, but if I had a choice, I'd much rather than team worked on Fallout New Vegas 2 if there was any hope of that.
Obviously they have Avowed in the works, so whatever else comes along, it won't be until after that I imagine.
