Your Outer Worlds companions are not just the string to your bow, but also a friend to make evil corporate space feel a little less lonely. You can have up to two companions in The Outer Worlds, but which two, or one, or none will make the cut?
Companions in The Outer Worlds aren't, unfortunately, stood in a line-up at the beginning of the campaign waiting to be chosen. Instead, you'll need to explore the different planets and complete individual quests to win the trust and loyalty of a companion so they'll follow you into the unknown.
Companions, like yourself, have their own Outer Worlds weapons and armour, as well as offering boosts and a special combat ability unlocked if your inspiration skill is at level 20. Outer Worlds companions perks mean you'll be able to select new skills from a perk table, each unique to that companion. Here's where you can find each of the companions in The Outer Worlds and what you'll need to do to win their loyalty.
