Outriders, day 1 on Xbox Game Pass!
The earth is destroyed and a ship full of people are the only remainder of the humans on earth. They take off and leave the rest of humanity behind, eighty years later they find a home and start unpacking. As humanity unloads, they start to explore their planet, but when you get out to a certain point, things go horribly wrong. You’re knocked out for what feels like a short time, but in fact 31 years has passed. Your friends are all older, you have strange new powers, there’s factions of humanity that are split, and you are the only one brave enough or dumb enough to try and piece everything back together.
That's one big guy!
Along the way you will have to fight humans and creatures while growing your powers and learning more about them. You aren’t the only one with abilities, though so you will need to be careful out there while you figure out how other humans are on the planet that didn’t come from your ship.
You ready to cause trouble?
Eventually you find out where the humans come from and where your powers come from. The powers come from the natives of the planet, that have stayed mostly hidden for the last 31 years since you’ve arrived, basically trapping humanity to a section of the planet while they assumingly remain on the rest of it. The people are actually from earth and they got to the planet before you after leaving after you.
