The Outer Worlds 2 is a deep RPG with a huge list of achievements you can get by completing specific objectives or challenges. Though you can get almost all Outer Worlds 2 achievements on a single playthrough (especially if you make regular save files), most players will have to complete several runs to get every trophy in the game.
Best Starting Builds in Outer Worlds 2
These six unique starting builds in Outer Worlds 2 serve as the foundation for six very different playstyles to approach the game.
