The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos DLC Gets a Release Date

The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos releases March 17 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, Obsidian announced. The Nintendo Switch version will release at a later date.

Murder on Eridanos is the final Outer Worlds DLC expansion and tasks players with solving a heinous crime connecting to one of the colony’s biggest companies.

Halcyon Helen, the Rizzo Company’s hired spokesperson, is dead. She’s been murdered ahead of Rizzo’s new product launch, Spectrum Brown Vodka, and uncovering the truth of her death means traveling to the sinister Eridanos region.

Eridanos is a series of floating islands home to Rizzo’s many ventures, including the Grand Colonial Hotel.

Rizzo’s employees are always smiling, which is always a good sign to watch your back because they’re hiding something underneath that friendly exterior.

Fortunately, the new Discrepancy Amplifier tool makes cutting through the lies a bit easier. The Discrepancy Amplifier helps identify hidden clues and inconsistencies otherwise impossible to see.

Murder on Eridanos increases the level cap by three and adds new equipment, flaws, and perks.
