Feeling the call of the open road, but don’t want to leave the comfort of your favorite crafting games? Get ready to merge your wanderlust with your love for cozy survival—Outbound, the open-world exploration game by Square Glade Games, is here to offer the ultimate sustainable van-life experience.
Set in a vibrant, utopian near future, Outbound isn’t just a game; it’s a meditative journey where your destination is freedom.
Build Your Dream Home on Wheels
The heart of Outbound is your trusty camper van. You start with an empty shell, but the possibilities are modular and nearly endless.
- Modular Construction: Snap on new parts, from cozy living areas to functional workshops, transforming a simple van into a fully customized, moving home base.
- Customize Everything: Personalize your space with different paints, furniture, and decorations to create a unique haven that truly reflects your style.
This isn’t just a vehicle; it’s your central hub for crafting, cooking, and sleeping, all while constantly being on the move.
Sustainable Living: Off-Grid and Loving It
In the world of Outbound, you live entirely off-grid, harnessing the power of nature to keep your van-home running smoothly.
- Renewable Energy: Say goodbye to gas stations! Power your electric camper and all your appliances using clean energy sources like solar panels, wind turbines, or hydro-generators adapted to the environment you are currently exploring.
- Craft and Grow: Scavenge materials from the lush, colorful world to craft essential workstations and tools. You can even create and tend to on-board gardens to grow your own food, ensuring your survival is as sustainable as it is satisfying.
The game challenges you to adapt your energy use and playstyle to the changing environmental conditions—making every stop an engaging puzzle of self-sufficiency.
Explore a Rich, Colorful World
The open world of Outbound is massive and waiting to be discovered, alone or with friends.
- Vibrant Biomes: Cruise through diverse landscapes, from dense, lush forests to tropical coastlines (like the new Coast biome introduced in the Beta), each filled with its own unique resources and secrets.
- Co-op Multiplayer: Want to share the journey? You can explore the open world, build up your vehicle, and live off-grid with up to four players in co-op mode. It’s the perfect way to split the duties of exploration and crafting!
- A Furry Friend: For those testing the Beta, you can now bring along a loyal canine companion! They’ll assist you by fetching items, carrying supplies, and making those long drives a little less lonely.
Whether you’re exploring hidden landmarks for blueprints or simply enjoying a sunset drive, Outbound provides a relaxing, low-stakes alternative to traditional survival games.
