Since its release all the way back in April of 2021, Outriders has garnered a dedicated fanbase of players who love the action-packed and explosive gameplay that Square Enix’s looter shooter offers.

While the devs have regularly pushed out fresh content since launch, the upcoming Worldslayer expansion is by far the most significant and ambitious update yet.

Outriders Worldslayer new features

For starters, Outriders Worldslayer will introduce a brand new campaign to complete with a fresh storyline and characters. All of this will take place in the region of Enoch, a snow-covered location that’s prone to blizzards and filled with unknown dangers.

Next, Square Enix has of course catered to the veterans and dedicated players with the Apocalypse tiers that will be replacing Challenge tiers in Worldslayer. As expected, these will be significantly harder but provide a lot more loot and at tier 40, players will be able to earn powerful Apocalypse-grade gear.

Loot is one of the most important aspects of Outriders and Worldslayer isn’t failing to deliver on that front with over 100 new Legendary items being added to the game. These will be immediately accessible for high-level players and for anyone beginning their journey, there’s an optional level 30 boost to get them up to speed.

Finally, Worldslayer is adding a brand new progression system to Outriders in the form of the Power of PAX and the Path of Ascension. Both give players the ability to open up new skill trees and progress their characters longer-term past level 30 by collecting XP.
