The Roses is uncomfortably funny. It comes in hot as a modern adaptation of The War of the Roses, the novel about two spouses waging psychological warfare on one another as their marriage falls apart, along with the 1989 film adaptation of the same name.

Almost six years ago, Obsidian Entertainment delivered a delightful, diverse, and memorable tale with The Outer Worlds. The team here at Checkpoint Gaming loved it so much, in fact, that we awarded it our Game of the Year in 2019. Obsidian have continually proven to be strong storytellers, and following up the fantastic fantasy RPG Avowed from earlier this year, it’s almost bonkers to think that The Outer Worlds 2 is now right around the corner.
