One of the biggest highlights ofOutriders' latest trailer is the overview of the combat system. In the game’s demo, players were able to try outthe four classes available inOutriders: the Trickster, Pyromancer, Devastator, and Technomancer. Each of these classes was briefly seen in action in the preview, with the trailer’s last few seconds showing an action-packed encounter with an enemy creature.
Outridersis now only a few weeks away from release, and the latest preview would likely ramp up the hype for the game. It is worth noting that the demo People Can Fly released last February was met with overwhelming praise from players.

However, once the problem was resolved, Kmita revealed thatthe development team was happy to see that players enjoyed the demo. The developer also responded to the news that some players were able to put in 100+ hours into the demo by saying thatOutridershas always been designed toward a “huge, sprawling RPG journey.”
