The Outsider still being worked on at Frontier
Frontier Developments boss David Braben has told Eurogamer that The Outsider is still being worked on at the studio.
The game, revealed back in 2005, sees the player, a CIA agent, framed as a traitor and must clear his name. Although how you’d do that would be up to you.
“It’s very exciting and we’re still working hard on it,” said Braben. “I’m not talking about it yet but watch this space.”
At the time it was announced, it was being developed for “new consoles”, which meant PS3, 360 and Wii. The game’s since been confirmed for the former two platforms, as well as PC.
Since the announcement, Frontier’s worked on two LostWinds game for Wii and its WiiWare service.

I’m still hoping this one turns out well. The early shots looked promising, and the whole negotiation angle sounded good. It’s protracted development is a little worrying of course, but I believe they’re a relatively small team, so fingers crossed they’re making steady progress.

I was hoping it was going to be a game based on the Camus novel of the same name.

@ 6: Innit. Needs more focus, less peripheral design.
