How long is The Outer Worlds? The open-world RPG came out around a year ago now, and is coming to Steam very soon - but if you're like me you're probably wondering how long it is. I know when I'm going to put my hard-earned cash into a game, I like to think about its value, and that means how long it's going to keep me entertained. £50 is a lot to spend on something if you're only going to spend a few hours enthralled.
This isn't to say that all games should be judged on how long they are, no no. I don't think if you made Ghost Recon: Breakpoint longer, it would automatically get better, and I quite like the length of Control just as it is. There is plenty of fun to be had which doesn't involve hours being poured into the game.
As our The Outer Worlds review explains, among its many qualities are the chance to become a friendly neighbourhood Cupid and play wingman/woman to one of your party, or maybe its laugh-out-loud (or 'lol' as cool kids say) humour is for you. Our reviewer Dustin Bailey does caution, however, that between these moments of genuine brilliance The Outer Worlds tends to meander, with a lot of 'connective tissue' where you're not really doing a lot.
