From VoxPop Games and Ratalaika Games, Outer Terror releases on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, fully optimised for Series consoles. It’s also present on Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PS5 should you well prefer. 

Blood, guts and horde-based shooting

Playing out as a horde-based shooter, the blood and guts on display in Outer Terror looks to be second to none. And when you consider that all comes about via a huge array of weaponry, it gets all the more exciting.

But with five chapters to enjoy, ten playable characters with various skills and weapons to harness, you can be sure that many a bullet will be fired. And each stage will play host to numerous secrets too; treasures, boss encounters and more.
