About

Outward: Definitive Edition is set in the world of Aurai, where you’ll step into the boots of an ordinary adventurer defending themselves against threatening creatures, braving hazardous environmental conditions, and keeping healthy and hydrated.

So, check your backpack to ensure you’re well-prepared for your journey through cities, dangerous hidden dungeons (teeming with formidable enemies), and the untamed wilderness.

The Nintendo Switch release is the culmination of months of hard work between NineDots Studio and Sneaky Box, the developer brought on board to lead the efforts of porting the game to the hybrid console.

Outward: Definitive Edition includes the base game along with all released downloadable contents—“The Three Brothers” and “The Soroboreans”—along with a plethora of new and updated content, including new weapons, dungeons, and quality-of-life improvements.
