Koch Media report that their critically acclaimed cRPG, OUTWARD the innovative and unforgiving co-op adventure exploration game from Nine Dots Studio, has surpassed 1 million copies sold!

Launched on March 26, 2019 Outward took the gaming world by surprise with its honest and original approach. It’s popularity grew and grew as more adventurers took up the challenge and ventured forth allowing themselves to become immersed in the magical worlds of Auria.

20 Months on from the launch and having just announced an upcoming second DLC “The Three Brothers”, both Koch Media and Nine Dots Studio celebrate this moment.

“Today perhaps more than ever gamers are embracing challenging RPGs and immersing themselves within their deep and rich plots. Outward is a great example of these games that whist not only being great fun, encourages the creation of emotional bonds from players – both alone and couch coop – to their characters and deliver a welcomed temporary escape from reality into rewarding fantasy worlds ” said Mario Gerhold, Int. Marketing Director Koch Media

“It’s hard to find the words to say when something that seemed impossible happens to you. After flopping with our two previous games, I had very conservative expectations and thought selling 100,000 copies would be a great step up from our previous titles. To have sold ten times that is surreal. Outward isn’t a perfect game; it has a lot of heart, but we had very little resources. Now we have experience, an audience, and more resources than ever before. I’m excited to think about what comes next.” said Guillaume Boucher-Vidal, CEO at Nine Dots

For budding adventurers who have not yet packed their back-pack and set forth, Outward is available for the following platforms here:-

• Steam
• Epic Game Store
• GOG
