A free 4K/60fps update is also available for Xbox Series X|S owners. Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye, an expansion we called "a wonderful return to the clockwork solar system of Outer Wilds," is available for $15 USD. It may take you a moment to get your space legs, but Outer Wilds is a trek absolutely worth taking for yourself. It’s a world begging to be explored, and the time loop mechanic at its core both consistently leaves you wanting more and adds a terrifyingly tense pressure to its otherwise serene exploration.

Its open-ended nature could leave you drifting through space (and often into planets at literal breakneck speed) without much idea of what to do, but this handcrafted solar system is filled to the brim with enticing breadcrumbs, tantalizing story teases, and some downright incredible sights that constantly draw you into one breathtaking moment after another. The studio just came off its busiest year to date, shipping Ratchet & Clank, Song of the Deep, Edge of Nowhere, Feral Rites, and The Unspoken all in 2016.Outer Wilds may be a Sci-Fi game, but it has a strange sort of magic to it.

Right now, Insomniac is currently working on the PS4-exclusive Spider-Man and its VR title The Unspoken, which has a full season of content planned. "No promises, and no timeline to speak of, but it is something that represents our willingness to create unexpected experiences." "We are passionate about that franchise, and we own it, so you may see more Sunset in the future from us," Price said. We asked Insomniac president Ted Price why there has been no movement on a sequel, and he replied, "You'd have to ask Microsoft." But with or without Microsoft's participation, Sunset Overdrive may grind again. But more than two years removed from its launch, the franchise is still dormant. For a console that lacks defining first-party games beyond the Halo, Gears of War, and Forza franchises, the Insomniac Games title seemed like a natural candidate to receive a sequel. Sunset Overdrive was one of the surprise success stories of the early Xbox One era, winning over critics with its irreverent attitude and fast-paced gameplay.
