While no release date for The Outer Worlds 2 was revealed by Obsidian Entertainment on E3 2021, a reveal-trailer was provided for fans of the game. The trailer featured meta-commentary action gameplay that featured an enormous glowing monster in the first look, which seemed pretty scary.

The trailer also featured a good look at the world-building as there were hints of lens flare, which is surely going to utilize the new Ray-tracing technology. A silhouette of the hero is also present in the game. Since the developers are not yet finished with the character design, fans had to remain content with just a silhouette of the protagonist.

As per the trailer, even though the first game ended on a good note, The Outer Worlds 2 will carry on its story. The narrator says:

The only thing they have finished ... is the title.

During the reveal trailer, Obsidian also stated that:

New solar system, new crew, same Outer Worlds. The Outer Worlds 2 is coming ... and when that day is closer, we will show you more ... but until then, enjoy this.
