Outer Wilds is an open world mystery where you explore a solar system trapped in a 20-minute time loop. Over the last three years, our development team has grown far beyond the initial few who worked on the alpha when it was a student project, but our main priority has always been to support the original vision for the game.

Inspired by the unusual combination of backpacking through national parks and the dangers of the vast darkness of space, Outer Wilds is a game about exploring for the sake of curiosity. We have created a hand-crafted solar system filled with secrets to discover and perils to avoid, using dynamic physics simulation to add to the thrill of exploring space. Players are given a variety of tools to aid in space-backpacking: including their own spaceship and jetpack; a surveyor probe for scouting and taking pictures; and a signal scope to track down audio signals as well as view landmarks from afar.

Moment-to-moment, the goal of Outer Wilds is to give players the experience of being an astronaut exploring a new and unusual frontier. Players can explore ancient ruins to uncover the secrets of a lost civilization and form hypothesis about their discoveries. Pathways across planets are filled with unique and dangerous phenomena to overcome.

Through a greater understanding of these systems, players can reach new locations to uncover even more hidden knowledge and delve deeper into the grand mysteries hidden in the farthest reaches of Outer Wilds.

After all these years in development, we are very excited to release Outer Wilds later this year!

Not sure what to make of this. In theory it sounds good but how much is there to do outside exploring for knowledge. Are resources a thing? is there crafting? What about combat?

Too little info.

You’re the newest member of Outer Wilds Ventures, a fledgling space program searching for answers in a strange, constantly changing solar system.

Who built the ruins on the moon? What lurks in the heart of Dark Bramble? Why are you trapped in a time loop, and can it be stopped? To solve these mysteries you’ll have to venture into the most dangerous reaches of space.

The planets of Outer Wilds are packed with hidden locations that change with the passage of time. Visit an underground city before it’s swallowed by rising sand, or explore the crust of a hollow planet as it crumbles beneath your feet. Every secret is guarded by hazardous environments and natural disasters as the solar system spirals out of control.

Strap on your hiking boots, check your oxygen levels, and get ready to venture into space. Use the Little Scout space probe to illuminate dark caves, take photos, or test for hazards in your environment. Track down mysterious audio with your Signal Scope or use your Translator to decipher an ancient Nomai riddle. Navigate the darkness of space with your jetpack and ship. There’s a lot to discover in the Outer Wilds.

Anyone else get a message about getting a free pre order of this for watching E3 on Mixer?

That is why I posted this topic. Thought people might like to see what they just got and are waiting for.
 
Tried the game out at release... Both this and firewatch bore me to death, it's like a walking simulator with meh gameplay thrown in.

Idk, I love story driven games (even telltales games I find amazing), but this just feels generic and pretentious.
