Outriders has a lot of content to offer players such as four different classes, each of which offers a multitude of build options, a huge variety of Legendary weapons and armor to find, and a substantial campaign to play through. The game can also be played in single-player mode or as a coop experience with up to two friends.
Despite a somewhat rocky launch that saw server issues and disconnections impacting players, Outriders has managed to entice many gamers to try it out. This is partially down to the availability of a free demo, but what really helps Outriders to stand out from the crowd is that it offers a more visceral, less sanitized experience than other games in the genre.
The main campaign length is about 40 hours for the average player and takes place over 25 missions spread across different areas in the game. Each area also contains a variety of side missions to be completed. A full list of the campaign missions, and the areas they take place in, can be found below.

It should be noted, the main campaign will not get players all the way to the max level cap in Outriders, which is 30. Instead, it will get them close, and they will need to make up the rest of the experience they need from side quests, killed enemies, and other activities within the game. The campaign will reward players with plenty of loot, helping them to get their power level up.
This is important, as it will allow them to play at higher World Tiers, netting better loot and resources from looting chests and killing enemies. As the campaign goes on, the difficulty will increase substantially, so players will want to ensure they are running with the best possible armor and weapons. Anyone struggling can alter the difficulty by reducing the World Tier they are playing at in the menus. This allows players to balance their own level of challenge and reward as they play through the campaign's many missions.
Outriders is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
