    Without being frankly unavoidable, as much because of its rather poor ancillary content as the low contribution of new features that it brings to the original game, Peril on Gorgon nevertheless remains solid in the story it tells.

    Peril on Gorgon is The Outer Worlds' expansion, and all all it's a solid execution for the game. Your Captain and their crew find themselvesPeril on Gorgon is The Outer Worlds' expansion, and all all it's a solid execution for the game. Your Captain and their crew find themselves travelling to the hell that is Gorgon asteroid which is basically a baron testing site for space drugs. You're contracted to investigate Gorgon by the heiress to a once great and prestigious family who's desperately seeking to rekindle her once noble status. In Outer Worlds style you are free to accomplish your journey in the manner of your choosing and it's not long before you're chest deep in all of Gorgon's secrets. If you're already familiar with The Outer Worlds, you'll know somewhat to expect. Abandoned facilities filled with many marauders and man-eating monsters galore, you’ll spend your time shooting them down and stashing the loot. There’s also several side quests available with rewards worth obtaining and dark humor based story. Your choices are as important here as it in the original game. Peril on Gorgon is more of the existing game but that is not a bad thing, I found the expansion a bit on the predictable side and it doesn't do much in terms of expanding the experience of the gameplay that was already present. Gorgon is definitely a big area, and there are many different locations within to explore and also raises your max level to 33 which introduces a few new perks. The Outer Worlds feels more like a plentiful role-playing experience , and existing fans will absolutely enjoy the expansion without question. I like that the expansion provides a great deal of new dialogue for Peril on Gorgon. Allies will chime in throughout the expansions main quest which will alone provide approximately 7 hours additional gameplay. If you’re a fan definitely carve out some time to explore this expansion for The Outer Worlds on Xbox One.… Full Review »

Agreed with him that the story was bland and underwhelming and easily predicted. Hopefully next DLC is better, but not sure I'm going to play it.… Full Review »

    Not even M$ cash can hype this one. Story's even weaker than the core game, humor has long since worn thin. True of all systems.
