Outriders - XGP on PC Announce

If this is the first time you’re hearing about our game, Outriders is a brutal RPG co-op shooter whose gameplay is focused on combat, which is equally balanced between gunplay and skill usage. You can  check out this Xbox Wire article that goes into great detail about the game and what you can expect when you land on the alien planet Enoch. 

If you’re already a veteran Outrider on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, you’ll be happy to hear that you can transfer your progress between console and the Windows version if you use the same account on both platforms. However, progress cannot be transferred to or from the Windows version from any other PC storefront (e.g. Steam) or non-Xbox consoles.

Outriders also supports Cross Play, which allows you to experience the game with players on other supported platforms. That means if you play Outriders through the Windows version, you’ll be able to engage in multiplayer sessions with players who are on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and other platforms. Cross Play can be enabled or disabled according to your own preferences in the settings menu.

Outriders is a complete package, and everything you need to start playing is already in the game, just waiting for you to start your journey. However, if you fancy a little extra, there’s a Hell’s Rangers content pack which you can purchase separately for up to 10% off with your Xbox Game Pass membership discount. The Hell’s Rangers pack includes some exclusive weapons, armor, and designs for your in-game truck. Aside from looking awesome, this gear will give you a bit of an advantage during the early section of the campaign as it includes a few weapon mods that would normally only be unlocked later in the game.
