Outer Wilds writer will now work for the Outer Worlds creators

Outer Wilds and the Outer Worlds were confusing people since they were released last year, and now things are getting even more confusing.
Outer Wilds writer will now work for the Outer Worlds creators

For many, Outer Wilds is one of the best game that came out last year. It's a story about a solar system trapped in an endless time loop, and you're the newest recruit of Outer Wilds Ventures, a fledgeling space program searching for answers in this strange, constantly evolving solar system.

The game absolutely deserves to be considered as one of the best games from the last year, and you should definitely do yourself a favour and try it!

Besides the fact that it's a great game, it was also known for being often confused with the latest RPG from Obsidian - The Outer Worlds. Quite similar names, both games were Epic exclusives on PC, and both games were released last year. Quite a perfect recipe for the confusion, even if you are familiar with both games.

And now to add to that confusion, Kelsey Beachum, narrative and story designer for Outer Wilds, is now hired by Obsidian, the creators of the Outer Worlds.

He is hired to work for Obsidian as a writer, although we still don't know for sure on what current projects Obsidian is working, besides Grounded which will come later this summer, and is basically already finished project.

Kelsey absolute deserves this new position and we can't wait to see what will he and Obsidian do together in the future!
