The Outer Worlds will make use of optional gyro controls, Obsidian has confirmed to Nintendo Everything.
Production director Eric DeMilt told us that much time was spent on “tuning controls to help with playability on the Switch.” The team “tuned sensitivity, exposed some inputs to users in the settings menu, tweaked and iterated aim assist values and added support for gyro aiming, and sticky targeting.”
