Pre-Order Price For The Outer Worlds 2 Drops Following Criticism

After seeing the first trailer in 2019, it seemed really exciting for fans of the original game when the sequel finally announced its release date this year along with the game even getting its own showcase. One thing that everyone has been really critical about though was the steep asking price of $79.99.

If you were one of those people hoping that the game would drop in price prior to its release, then you're in luck because whomever is in charge of the game pricing appeared to have taken note of the pushback and dropping the price in response, from $79.99 to... $69.99. Yeah, it's not much, and most of the aforementioned pushback will still be present, but it's better than nothing.
