    Outriders absolutely excels when it lets combat, solid gunplay, and supremely satisfying abilities do the talking. Its unique blend of aggression really is something to behold in action. Rubbish characters, the requirement to maintain an online connection and couple with servers, and various technical hitches hold it back from greatness, but they don't muddy the picture so much to dissuade a recommendation. Outriders is pretty class in motion.

    Still, despite my final moments kind of being ruined, I really enjoyed my time with Outriders. It cracks into the crowded looter-shooter genre and carves out a niche, all while telling an entertaining story. Its character-building is top-notch, its PvE gameplay is challenging and rewarding, and despite not being a live-service game it comes complete with end-game content that is more robust than most games that are trying to be live-service.

    Outriders is a fun looter-shooter game where both the action and RPG parts of the formula are exceedingly well done. It does falter at the endgame, though, and it comes with a myriad of technical issues, not to mention an antiquated world structure; bear all of that in mind if you're looking to purchase at full price.

    Outriders is a perfect storm. A shiny new game to show off these new consoles. The fact that it launched day and date onto Game Pass has definitely helped with its success, as has the fact that gamers are hungry for new experiences.

    Outriders offers some genuinely great sci-fi action, alongside some really interesting world and creature design that I'd love to see more of. Its mostly satisfying take on RPG loot progression is well worth putting up with a lackluster story, a few clunky interfaces, and some lingering technical issues. Outriders is the good kind of grind - especially if you're into goo-ifying your enemies with a couple of friends.

    Very good coop game!

    So this game is so GREAT SO FAR! very good coop. More players the better on this one. This game is a mixture of, dying light, Gears of war, and boarderlands! The movement i would say is like Gears of war! The customs of guns and outfits remind me of boarderlands, and dying light kinda like the story missions a bit. I Dont like how many guns and different special things they do with short amount of time to enjoy the perks. You get new weapons and clothes fast like boarderlands. Theres different power skills that you get and switching them does make a difference in the game. Some powers you have to choose correctly or the battles last forever or even a fail. I like how you can make the levels more hard which makes sense because your characters level up which makes them stronger. I like how coop you have different powers. And i this game would be great to play with your kid or with adult friends. Some battles are everywhere!! The more the group the better because it brings more action!! Bombs and guns and explosions! Reason why i rated not a 10, because the game does become repetitive! So you might want to play a different game or take a break. It becomes the the same thing. Over and over. I wish they would have put different things in the game like, motorcycles, trucks, that you can drive. and ways to buy parts and wheels. Right now, you can buy parts but cant drive!!. But, Other then repetitiveness. The game i do recommend. Great solo, better with friends!!

    Enjoyable Solo Experience

    Played this 9 months after launch on Xbox Game Pass. Even coming off of Halo Infinite, the gunplay in Outriders was really fun. The unlocking of new skills and weapons/armor is extremely satisfying. And while each new gun or new armor piece is only a little better than the last, it feels like you are constantly getting stronger, getting new buffs, or being tempted to try different gun mod combos. As a sci-fi fan, I really enjoyed the story. It won't win any awards, but I really grew to like the characters. And near the end, I made a guess of what I expected the end to be only for People Can Fly to pull a good unexpected twist. I loved how the combat was extremely fast paced, especially in comparison to Gears. If a story expansion is released, I will very likely return to this game.

    Amazing game! I really enjoyed playing with my buddy in coop campaign. Various environments in which we travel are the main plus point for this game. Graphics are great too along with gameplay. You need to do each and every side mission in this since it has its own plot with cutscenes. I don't know why low rating is given for this game but I would say just buy this.

    Great game! \[After\] all the updates, it play noicely! If you came from Diablo 3, Mass Effect 3 - this is the game for you! They have character that can be like (comparing from Mass Effect) Vanguard. Oh, and the heal-on-kill is wicked cool! (months later) buuut it gets Dark Souls hard as you progress deeper into the game. idk if it's just me as a trickster class but honestly it get so frustrating i jus eject the game disc outta my ps4 and either walk away or play some other games or read a book such as AC Odyssey official novelization or something.
