In a significant shift for the gaming industry, Obsidian’s highly anticipated title, The Outer Worlds 2, has officially become Xbox’s first $80 game. This price adjustment, confirmed during Xbox’s recent Games Showcase, reflects a broader trend in the gaming market as developers and publishers grapple with rising production costs and market conditions. Alongside a Premium Edition priced at $100, which offers early access and a DLC pass, this move signals a new era for gamers and their wallets.
