Outriders Broadcast #5 details demo content and PC version

The Outriders demo is almost here. Releasing tomorrow on February 25 at 5pm GMT (6pm CET, 9am PT), players can get their first up-close look at the upcoming RPG-shooter by downloading the free demo on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, Xbox One, PC/Steam and GeForceNOW.

According to Broadcast #5 “Into the Fray,” the demo will offer the entire opening chapter of the Outriders campaign, which is roughly three hours of free content that will be available ahead of its April release. Players will be able to make multiple characters, tackle multiplayer co-op (which will include crossplay with other platforms), and try out the four previously announced classes: Devastator, Pyromancer, Technomancer and Trickster. Any progress made in the demo will carry over to the full game if players purchase Outriders on the same platform.
