SPIN: For those who know nothing about it, what should people expect from Outriders?īartek Kmita: I think it depends on what the player is looking for. SPIN took a break from partying up to demolish hostiles with our customized guns and superpowers to chat with creative director Bartek Kmita and lead game designer Piotr Nowakowski about the successful launch of Outriders. When the biggest issue a new game has these days is that the servers struggle to handle the hundreds of thousands of players attempting to get on to the game at the same time, things could be a lot worse. Unlike other recent titles that have been criticized for releasing in half-finished states, the improvements Outriders showed between its demo release in February and April 1 launch are astounding. Written off by many as “just another looter-shooter” set in a futuristic apocalypse scenario (one brought on by climate change instead of Terminators or easily-transmitted respiratory viruses), the latest title by the Polish Gears of War veterans at People Can Fly didn’t necessarily get much fanfare leading up to its release last week.īut what they lacked in press coverage, the team made up for with entertaining gameplay and deep customization that surprised a lot of tepid strangers on the internet. If there’s one game that’s surprised a lot of people in this new console generation (other than Astro’s Playroom), it’s Outriders.
