Outward is an open-world RPG where the cold of the night or an infected wound can be as dangerous as a predator lurking in the dark.
Outward is harsh and occasionally frustrating, but it does what so few games do. It requires you to put real thought into the choices you make, and it makes those choices feel like they really matter. Most of all, it makes you approach each and every encounter as if your life depended on it—even though you never die.
