Obsidian has shown off its roster of companions for The Outer Worlds 2 but also ruined the majority of RPG fans' days by also confirming that you won't be bedding them.
The Outer Worlds 2 had a new trailer at Gamescom Opening Night Live where Sonic himself Ben Schwartz returned to hint at a "release date now GTA 6 is delayed," seemingly forgetting the release date was confirmed back in June. But thankfully that isn't all Obsidian had planned as it showed off its roster of companions for the game.
The companion list features faces from Auntie's Choice, Earth Directorate and various other factions. Plus you can have a human companion like Niles, or a fancy little robot called Valerie. Granted, the vast majority of them seem to be humans, so you won't be hanging out with a funny little creature from the looks of things.

Avowed skipped out on the romance options, which was seen as a controversial move by some. And sadly it looks like The Outer Worlds 2 will be joining it, unless you can romance them without sleeping with them, which I'm sure will not be enough for some. Regardless though, you will have a fair few companions to hang out with at least, so you maybe wouldn't have the time to romance them anyway.
