Written by Marcus Stewart 
Obsidian Entertainment announced that The Outer Worlds’ first expansion, Peril on Gorgon, is heading to the Switch version of the game on February 10 – that's a week from today! The DLC was released last September for PS4, Xbox One, and PC and takes players to the lawless asteroid Gorgon to solve a mystery surrounding a doomed Halcyon science experiment.
Gorgon was once the site of a Halcyon science outpost but things went sideways after a major experiment went horribly awry. The floating rock has since become a den of galactic debauchery. The crew of the Unreliable find their way to Gorgon after receiving a mysterious message packaged with a severed arm and meet Minnie Ambrose, a wealthy recluse, who tasks them with finding her mother and the director of Halcyon’s failed project, Dr. Olivia Ambrose. Naturally, things only spiral outwards from there as the crew gets wrapped up in a grander mystery. On top of offering a new narrative adventure, Peril of Gorgon bumps the level cap up to 33 and introduces new perks, flaws, wacky new weapons, and armor sets.
Now that Peril of Gorgon will soon be available on all platforms, that hopefully signals an incoming release date for The Outer Worlds’ second announced expansion, Murder of Eridanos, which we still know little about. While we can’t wait to see what the next expansion entails, many fans are probably hoping for any kind of confirmation on a full-on sequel, but that likely isn’t happening for some time given Obsidian is tied up with finishing Grounded as well as working on their next RPG, Avowed.
For a more visual idea of what dangers await in Peril on Gorgon, you can check out the DLC’s original launch trailer or watch us go hands-on with it in this episode of New Gameplay Today. You can read our review of The Outer Worlds’ base game here.

Written by Anthony PuleoBattle Through An '80s-Inspired Digital World In Narita Boy This Spring
Written by Marcus Stewart 
Adventures set inside of a computer is nothing new, but Narita Boy does it with a powerful sense of style that makes it impossible to ignore. The 2D narrative action game is the debut title by Studio Koba, and was successfully Kickstarted with the help of over 5,000 backers. After watching the game's slick debut trailer, it's easy to see why people would get behind the project: it looks very cool, and the presentation nails the technology and era that inspires it.
Narita Boy transports players inside of a old computer and drops them into the Digital Kingdom. At the behest of the kingdom’s ruler, the Motherboard, players will take on the Stallions, rogue code seeking to enslave the Digital Kingdom. Players will defend a colorful cast of characters using the legendary Techno-Sword, a transforming weapon that can also take the form of a shotgun and fire laser beams.

Along the way, players will also experience the memories of the Digital Kingdom’s human creator. The 80s style presentation looks great, and the soundtrack composed of analogue synthesizers only enhances Narita Boy’s nostalgic appeal.
If Narita Boy catches your eye, you’ll be happy to know the game is coming sooner than later. It’s scheduled to release this spring for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. Narita Boy will also come to Xbox Game Pass on console and PC at launch.
On the back of Narita Boy’s announcement, Publisher Team17 is launching the Saving The Arcade World campaign, a great cause aimed at raising awareness for the struggling arcade industry and helping preserve and protect that scene with help from The Strong: National Museum of Play, The National Videogame Museum in the UK, and Spain's Arcade Vintage: Museo del Videojuego. You can learn more about the cool campaign at Team17’s website.
