Outcast - Second Contact (PS4)

Outcast - Second Contact is a remake of a cult game from NACON SA, and this PS4 disc sends you to an alien planet as Cutter Slade, an elite soldier with a strong character who is Earth's last chance. It is a sci-fi adventure with a big open world and a long campaign.

An alien world that merges science and magic

Slade arrives on a planet that blends science with magic. There are exotic native cities to explore, formidable enemies to face and the secrets of an advanced civilisation to uncover. The world is described as living and immense, with its own ecosystem, so your choices matter.

Those choices carry weight. The fate of two universes depends on your success, which puts the pressure on every decision you make.

Gameplay and features

• More than 50 hours of film-worthy sci-fi game adventure
• Spectacular combat from an evolving arsenal of weapons
• Total freedom in a living and immense open world

Why play it on PS4

Outcast - Second Contact is a single-player PS4 disc with an age rating of PEGI 12. On-screen languages include English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese (Brazil).

The campaign length is the main draw: with over 50 hours of adventure on offer, it gives you a long single-player journey to settle into.

It will appeal to players who like open-ended exploration and a story that unfolds across a large world. If you enjoyed classic sci-fi adventures where you land on an unfamiliar planet and have to learn its rules, this is built for that kind of curiosity.

Combat and exploration share the stage here, and the arsenal evolves as you progress, so what you carry and how you use it changes across the campaign.
