    Outcast: A New Beginning sees the return of Adelpha in a sequel that serves as both a reboot and an ideal entry point for new players.

    It’s in the jetpack use where the highlights will be found, but if you are on the lookout for a new adventure on a different planet then you’ll not go too wrong with Outcast: A New Beginning.

    Outcast: A New Beginning is an entertaining open-world romp that reveals in its campy charm with fun traversal mechanics, fun customisation options, and plenty to see and do. It may be a little rough around the edges, but if you can overlook its foibles, there’s plenty of fun to be had.

    Outcast: A New Beginning gives us a science fiction videogame that we have been waiting for years. Exploring Adelpha using the jetpack and engaging with the Talans is interesting. The performance of the game and the combat need some improvements, but overall is a good first experience into this saga.

    Cutter Slade's long-awaited return has flashes of jetpack-fuelled brilliance, but tiresome missions and a story that fails to engage ensure that playing Outcast: A New Beginning quickly develops into something of a chore.

    Even if everything is not perfect, Outcast A New Beginning is entertaining and pleasant to play, offering us an adventure filled with action and exploration. The planet Adelpha proves to be spellbinding and the story of the Talan race is captivating. The improvements made to the graphics and gameplay modernise the title, and we had a great time. However, we would have appreciated a slightly more developed storyline, and even if the game does not revolutionise the genre, Appeal Studios comes through with flying colours.
