THQ Nordic has announced that Outcast 2 – A New Beginning will launch on March 15, 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

The release date announcement was made by the publisher on their official Twitter account, following a small tease reminiscent of the GTA VI trailer announcement.

Here’s what was sent via the press release:

Outcast – A New Beginning / Overview

Weapon upgrades, aliens and monsters (who can also be predators) – you will find all of this in Appeal Studio’s and THQ Nordic’s upcoming open-world action-adventure Outcast – A New Beginning! Play as Cutter Slade, ex-Navy SEAL, and gain the trust of the local Talans. Engage in guerilla warfare such as destroying enemy ammo convoys to weaken bases and freely choosing where to launch the next attack, shaping the success of the Talan uprising.

The stakes are high, though, Cutter Slade brings dry humor to the forefront, adding a touch of wit to the intense storyline. Rediscover the awe-inspiring game world reminiscent of the beloved Outcast 1, while offering something totally fresh and accessible for newcomers. Every corner is brimming with wonders and surprises!

The game’s marketing is slowly ramping up, with a recent combat trailer showcasing various aspects of the gunplay, jetpacks, and crafting mechanics. As the release date approaches, more details about Outcast 2 – A New Beginning will be revealed.

The original Outcast was a cult classic, and almost 25 years later, we are getting a sequel. Hopefully, it will entice fans of the old title and bring new eyes to the series as well. We will see if the game is able to live up to the expectations very soon as the launch is just over a few months away.

Outcast 2 – A New Beginning releases for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 15, 2024.
