Snacks, Controllers, and Validation: The Outer Worlds 2’s Moon Man Couch-Panion has it all

When you make a sequel, you can’t repeat yourself. You’ve got to get bigger, stranger, and make some questionably necessary swag. For this reason, to celebrate Outer Worlds 2we’re proud (and a little baffled) to introduce you the Moon Man Sofa Bannion – A 3ft/90cm tall plush that is equal parts collectible, cuddle buddy, and living room quirk.

Yes, you read that correctly. We’ve turned Moon Man into a plush toy.

The sofa bannion is no ordinary plush. This oversized lunar legend comes with stress ball-shaped squishy hands (scientifically designed to quit rage), a popcorn bucket holder (for storing important snacks), and straps for your Xbox Wireless Controller and TV remote (because pockets are overrated). He doesn’t speak – thank God – but his big eyes practically scream: You are valid, even if I would never make such a long-term choice as you just made in the game..

Some may ask, “Why would anyone need a dollhouse the size of a small asteroid in their home?” And to them we say: why not? The sequel unleashes gravity-defying levels of noise. And nothing says “Big Sequel Energy” quite like a man in the moon staring silently at you as you explore new worlds, reminding you that the universe is vast, cruel, and somehow also lovable.

This is not just a commodity. This is not just a plush. This is a lifestyle choice. Statement piece. A co-pilot for every late-night mission and the odd snack. It’s satire you can embrace – and the proof is Outer Worlds 2 She lives outside the game, placing a 3ft/90cm plush on your sofa while she does so.

So come on, buckle up. The Moon Man Couch-Panion is here to hold your snacks, your console, and maybe even your self-esteem. Because if you’re going to experience the greatness of a sequel, you’d better do it with Big Sequel Energy – and a very questionable character by your side.

Pre-order The Outer Worlds 2 now to receive the Commander Zane Anti-Monopoly Battle Pack at launch. The Outer Worlds 2 is the long-awaited sequel to Obsidian Entertainment’s award-winning sci-fi first-person RPG (just look at the impressive number of dashes in that sentence!). It’s time to clear your calendar – get ready for an action-packed adventure with a new crew, new weapons and new enemies in a new colony! So much novelty! As a daring and most likely good-looking agent of the Earth Directorate, you must uncover the source of destructive rifts that threaten to destroy all of humanity. Your investigation leads you to Arcadia, home of Skip Drive technology, where the fate of the colony, and ultimately the entire galaxy, depends on your decisions – your strengths, your flaws, your crew, and the factions you choose to trust. DISCOVER A NEW FRONTIER The colony of Arcadia is engulfed in a factional war, as the so-called benevolent rule of the protectorate is challenged by a rebellion of their religious order and invading corporations. As devastating divisions spread across the colony, each faction fights to control or shut it down for their own goals. Travel to diverse regions, discover hidden traditions, and decide the fate of a system on the brink! YOUR LEADER, YOUR WAY Build your character with abilities and choices that reflect your playstyle. The colony reacts to your every move, crafting a story of your own – whether you’re a student of diplomacy, a clever strategist, an advocate of chaos, or something entirely different. And yes, you can dumb! RECRUIT COMPANIES Recruit companions with unique traits, backgrounds, and goals. Whether you choose to help them achieve their ambitions or guide them toward your own goals, your influence shapes their growth (or death), making them an integral part of the immersive story you create together.
