What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i3 10100F | Ryzen 3 3100 or equivalent, 4 GB RAM and NVIDIA GTX 1050 | AMD RX 570 or equivalent. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 16GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it costs, and where
Storefront pricing varies enormously by country: Indonesia is the cheapest region we track at Rp 199,000 (about $11.11), while Germany pays €24.99 — 2.5 times more. In Pakistan it is priced at Rs 12 on Steam, which is about $12.49.
What it launched against
Outbound launched on 11 May 2026, within three weeks of 007 First Light, Forza Horizon 6, LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight and Directive 8020. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 6 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: 007 First Light, Forza Horizon 6, LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, Directive 8020.
