Outer Worlds PS5 Upgrade Fiasco Forces DLC-Only Path

Obsidian has apologized for a confusing promo around a free PS5 upgrade for base The Outer Worlds owners. Due to unforeseen platform limitations and entitlement rules, the free upgrade cannot be offered going forward; Xbox One/PS4 digital owners will need to own the base game plus both DLCs (or the Expansion Pass) to be eligible for the Spacer's Choice Edition upgrade. Players who bought the base game before May 27 may contact support for remediation, but many feel misled as messaging changed after the initial announcement. The DLCs were briefly delisted and later relisted, complicating upgrade eligibility, and Obsidian has issued a further statement acknowledging the frustration.

The studio said they’d work with affected players and explore a make-good, but the exact remedy remains unclear, sparking backlash even as Steam users report no upgrade problems.

Outer Worlds Free Upgrade Gets Reworked by Console Entitlements

Obsidian’s Spacer’s Choice Edition upgrade, originally promised as a free upgrade for base The Outer Worlds buyers, is being restricted on Xbox One and PS4 due to console entitlement limits. Digital owners must now own the base game plus both DLCs (Peril on Gorgon and Murder on Eridanos) to qualify for the upgrade; PC owners still get the upgrade if they own the delisted base game. Obsidian urged affected players (including those who bought between 4/30 and 5/27) to contact support, and is exploring upgrade paths for physical copies, with the Spacer’s Choice Edition also added to Xbox Game Pass.

Outer Worlds Partially Delisted as Spacer's Choice Edition Becomes Default With Free Upgrades

Base edition of The Outer Worlds will be delisted on May 27 and Spacer's Choice Edition will become the sole version on most storefronts; players who already own the base game receive the Spacer's Choice Edition for free, while the remaster is priced at $39.99 on most pages (Xbox One sees a post‑27 price drop to $24.99 with DLCs at $14.99). Platform specifics and upgrade rules vary and can be confusing, with Xbox One, PS4, and Switch handling differently.

The Outer Worlds Receives Grenades and a Major Seven-Year Upgrade

Obsidian will push a major update to The Outer Worlds on May 27, including grenades and a broad set of performance, lighting, and quest fixes. The base game will be delisted in favor of the Spacer’s Choice Edition, which will be offered free to existing owners and priced at $40 going forward. Xbox One and PS4 upgrades require owning both DLCs, the paid upgrade path is being removed, and the DLCs will receive permanent discounts. The update signals ongoing support for the original game seven years after launch and coincides with Spacer’s Choice Edition’s prominence in storefronts.

Outer Worlds Spacer's Choice Edition receives performance updates for PS5 and Xbox Series X.

The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition offers comprehensive visual upgrades and all DLC for a $10 upgrade fee, but suffers from poor performance on consoles, with frame-rates struggling to hit 60fps and questionable changes to its art direction. The 30fps cinematic mode provides a good first impression, but the 60fps performance mode is far from stable. The visual tweaks are well done, but have a knock-on effect on the art direction that may prove divisive. The frame-pacing at 30fps and highly variable frame-rate in performance mode need to be fixed.
