Up to date
Patch 1.1.8 just went online!
View on Steam
- Multiplayer: Fixed empty Download Terminals. Sometimes the last Signal Tower in a biome did not contain any downloads, which resulted in an empty UI.

Hot Fix 1.1.7 - 971 just went online!
This hot fix fixes the issue with the frame rate drop when using a mouse with high polling rate that started just before the weekend. This issue seemed caused by a system update that our game couldn't handle as expected. We were luckily able to patch this on our end. We apologize for any inconveniences caused.
We are working on a fix for Epic Games Store and PC Game Pass right now.

Patch 1.1.7 build 12479 just went online!
We've received multiple reports from players experiencing severe lag when moving their mouse cursor over the past couple of days. We're not sure what's causing the problem, but we'd like to try rolling back a recent change we made to the input system. We hope this will fix the issue.
If this doesn't fix the issue, please reinstall Outbound and let us know if the problem persists after downloading and installing this patch.
Any additional information that could help us identify the cause of this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Patch 1.1.7 is now live!
We were able to track down and fix a very important bug with this patch. Many of you reported losing your progression while playing with friends. Thanks to your help, as well as the save files and logs you provided, we were finally able to identify and fix this frustrating issue.
We thought we had fixed it in the previous patch, but it turned out there were multiple underlying issues causing the problem, which is why it kept happening.
Thanks again for your help and thank you for your patience!
If you're enjoying the game, please consider leaving a review on Steam. Thanks!

This is due to a number of behind-the-scenes optimizations, as well as groundwork being laid for a larger upcoming update. We apologize for any confusion and appreciate your understanding.
