The 1999 ahead-of-its-time adventure game, Outcast, could be looking to reboot. A recent press release revealed that the founders of the original game’s development studio, Appeal (which went bankrupt during the production of a sequel for the PS2), have grouped together and purchased the rights to the franchise from Atari. A revival is in progress and more news can be expected soon.
If you’ve never played Outcast, it’s definitely worth a run-through. You can find it at Good Ol’ Games right now to download at just under $3.00. Speaking of GOG, their summer “No-DRM” sale is still running until the 5th. A plethora of titles are going at 75% off, so if you haven’t checked it out and have five bucks to burn, what are you doing still reading this?
