Obsidian fixes bugs and performance issues with patch v1.1 for The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition.
Obsidian released patch v1.1 last week to fix bugs and performance issues in The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition. The patch was shipped first for PC and PlayStation, with Xbox consoles to follow later this week.
On March 7th, The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition was released, a graphically revised and improved version of Obsidian’s popular role-playing game. Many players complained about poor performance, so publisher Private Division apologized publicly and promised to work flat out on a patch.
As can be seen from the patch notes, not all reported errors have been fixed. The team is therefore still working on further solutions.
