Venture to the skies of Eridanos and unravel the grandest murder
mystery in the Halcyon colony. Everyone is a suspect in this
peculiar whodunit after Rizzo’s spokesperson, the famous Halcyon
Helen, is found dead just before the release of the brand-new
Spectrum Brown Vodka. Uncover clues with the Discrepancy Amplifier,
a semi-sentient device that shows the anomalies and inconsistencies
of a crime scene. Unlock additional dialogue paths and different
quest routes with each discovery. On your mysterious journey, you
will encounter a host of interesting suspects, famous icons like
Helen’s co-stars Spencer Woolrich and Burbage-3001, celebrity
athlete Black Hole Bertie of Rizzo’s Rangers, and many more! Be
careful as behind each eerie smile lurks a dark secret, but press
on as your steadfastness is the key to unlocking this case.
“With Murder on Eridanos we set out to unveil more about
the memorable cast of The Outer Worlds universe while
continuing to put the player front and center in a gripping and
intriguing narrative,” said Megan Starks, Game Director at Obsidian
Entertainment. “This expansion sheds light on another infamous
corporation in a nearly implausible new setting and introduces new
mechanics that push how we develop the story. It is a wild ride,
and we can’t wait to see the fans’ reactions.”
“Murder on Eridanos is a perfect climactic closure to
this chapter in The Outer Worlds. It delivers on what made
the original game great: deep player choice in a fantastic world,”
said Michael Worosz, Executive Vice President and Head of Private
Division. “Players should expect another riveting and humorous
story, whip-smart dialogue, and much more. This expansion is an
excellent reason to revisit The Outer Worlds or dive in for
the first time.”
The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos also raises the
level cap by three, unlocking additional options for even more
skill customization. Obtain three new science weapons, one being
Helen’s signature gun “The Needler,” and collect a variety of new
armor sets. Explore treacherous new territory and venture to
Eridanos, a collection of drifting asteroid islands chained
together and being pulled through the gas giant’s upper atmosphere,
which houses multiple locations to explore in this thrilling
mystery like the Grand Colonial Hotel to Rizzo’s colorful
Purpleberry Orchards.
