Description



The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos is the second narrative expansion to the critically acclaimed and award-winning sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division.

Venture to the skies of Eridanos and unravel the grandest murder mystery in the Halcyon colony! Everyone is a suspect in this peculiar whodunit after Rizzo’s hired spokesperson, the famous Halcyon Helen, winds up dead ahead of the release of the brand-new Spectrum Brown vodka. Alongside your companions, travel across the floating islands of Eridanos and piece together clues using the Discrepancy Amplifier, a new gadget that highlights otherwise unseen hints. There’s more to this mystery than meets the eye, and it’s up to you (and your crew, if you choose) to solve the case.

The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos is the second and final story expansion that can be purchased individually or bundled at a discount in The Outer Worlds Expansion Pass.

  • Murder mystery: Suspicions abound, and it’s up to you to get to the bottom of the murder of Halcyon Helen, the most well-known celebrity in the colony. Use the new Discrepancy Amplifier, your key to solving the case, as it highlights temporal inconsistencies not otherwise seen with the naked eye.
  • A unique world: Travel among the floating islands of Eridanos, from the luxurious confines of the Grand Colonial Hotel to Rizzo’s colorful groves. But be careful about the smiling employees you encounter, as there’s something dark lingering under the bright and cheerful surface.
  • New weapons and character customization: Three new science weapons can be added to the player’s arsenal alongside weapon and armor variants to use while solving the case. And increase your level cap by three and employ new perks and flaws to create your most unique character yet.

8/10 dlc, buy with the game, not after.

So i finished the second DLC playing quite relaxed on normal difficulty in like 3 days - few hours at night. The story is not bad at all, the missions are okay but not so many as i was expecting.. I wouldn't buy this at full price, getting it with the main game on sale is the right thing to do. It's fun but not that uber fun. Main game is 8.5/10 for me and this dlc is 8/10.

Enjoyed it, a nice change.

I saw some negative reviews but decided to give Murder on Eridanos a shot, and I'm glad I did. It's a nice change of pace from the regular gameplay and the Gorgon chapter. The scenery, as always, was beautiful and the storyline relatively clever (for someone like me who doesn't worry about solving the mystery immediately). The enemies were fairly easy to defeat but it was still an interesting gameplay and worth the purchase for me. I love the game and give that a 9.5/10, and this is about an 8/10.

Satisfying romp

Murder on Eridanos is not a revolutionary addition to Outer Worlds. It mostly is more of the same -- corporate conspiracies, lots of self-important blowhards, some opportunities for gunslinging action. The twist is that this version comes with a mystery that you're supposed to "solve". Spoiler, though not really: it's not actually about you solving a mystery. It's more like a particularly obscure dialogue tree that takes a long time. Because you'll never get clues to actually solve the mystery, and whatever you decide for the solution won't impact the end-game of the DLC. Still, if you enjoy Outer Worlds I'd say this is a must play. It continues the richness of their world-building, and Eridanos is very strange and cool looking. I just wish the Outer Worlds team had worked to build new *mechanics* into their strange worlds, and not just interesting visuals. Could have been so much more, but is worth playing nonetheless.
