Developer Obsidian have announced that the delayed Switch version of The Outer Worlds will finally be arriving on 6 March.

Having initially released on Xbox One and PS4 last October, the Switch version required a little extra polish before it was ready. The port is being handled by Virtuous, who also brought Starlink and Dark Souls over to the console, so we can expect a solid port if past form is anything to go by!

The open-world adventure released to solid reviews, with critics praising the tight combat and witty writing.

Fans hoping for a physical version may be a little disappointed though. Although retail stores will carry a box for the game, there’ll be no cart inside - just a download code. It’s a similar approach to that seen taken by Blizzard for the release of Overwatch last year too.

Have you held off on this one waiting for the Switch version? Let us know if you’ll be diving in down in the comments.
