"This idyllic destination is located on a moon called Eden, and while it may sound lovely, it's embroiled in a three-way conflict between the game's primary factions: The authoritarian Protectorate, the ruthlessly capitalist Auntie's Choice, and the scientific church that is the Order of the Ascendant. Following The Outer Worlds 2's prologue chapter, this is where players become truly acclimated with the game's new and improved systems in an open-world setting."
"Shortly after arriving at Paradise Island, you're tasked with infiltrating a Protectorate base housing a towering transmitter called the Vox Relay. There's only one big problem: The facility sits on the other side of a chasm, and is accessible only by crossing a heavily guarded drawbridge. This mission offers the first big example of The Outer Worlds 2's larger emphasis on branching mission design and player choice. A Protectorate guard may let you pass in exchange for hunting down two traitors to their organization."
Paradise Island is an open-world area on the moon Eden, contested by three major factions: the authoritarian Protectorate, the ruthlessly capitalist Auntie's Choice, and the scientific church Order of the Ascendant. The area functions as the first large open environment where players engage with revamped systems after the game's prologue. The Vox Relay bridge infiltration mission exemplifies the game's branching design, offering multiple solutions: negotiate passage by eliminating traitors, search for hidden approaches, use jump boots to bypass hazardous Zyrainium gas, assist a forward operating base for backup, or betray an ally for access. These options emphasize player agency and varied playstyles.
