The Outer Worlds<\/i><\/b> is rife with lore and nods to pre-existing legends, most notably Greek mythology, and perhaps the most obvious case is the planet Olympus, which has already been unlocked on the map thanks to <\/span>Peril on Gorgon<\/span><\/i>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Olympus is one of four planets that\u2019s locked during a no-DLC playthrough of <\/span>The Outer Worlds<\/span><\/i><\/a>. Visiting the planet isn\u2019t absolutely imperative to the main storyline, obviously, or else the developer would have included it. What waits for players on Olympus isn\u2019t that grand, but that\u2019s because, despite its massive size, it\u2019s only meant to be the destination for one part of the mystery that is <\/span>Peril on Gorgon<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mt. Olympus is where many people believed the Gods lived. Of course, they didn\u2019t believe that the Gods lived directly on top of the mountain, but somewhere just beyond in a cloud-like realm. This nod to Greek mythology<\/a> is one of the easiest to spot during the game because it\u2019s one of the most well-known tidbits of Greek myth. When it comes to bringing the myth to life, <\/span>The Outer Worlds<\/span><\/i> made sure to pay homage to the Greek lore without being too heavy-handed.<\/span><\/p>\n

The map of\u00a0<\/span>The Outer Worlds<\/span><\/i>\u00a0describes Olympus as uninhabitable because of the constant storms in the planet\u2019s atmosphere. It\u2019s also the biggest of Halcyon\u2019s Jovian gas giants,\u00a0<\/span>the second being Eridanos<\/span><\/a>. However, just because the planet’s surface is considered unlivable, it doesn\u2019t mean that stopped the corporations from finding a way to utilize the planet. Just like a city in the clouds, something similar exists with Olympus.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tucked in the orbital atmosphere of Olympus is Auntie Cleo\u2019s Olympus Orbital Pharmaceutical Station\u2014aka O.O.P.S. Players are sent here during the quest \u201cThe Man in High Orbit, and o<\/span>nce arrived at the station, players must search for clues to find Dr. Jasper Low and try to understand why there are so many dead scientists lying around the station. Additionally, there\u2019s lots of auto-mechanicals to fight and even <\/span>a receptionist to save during the quest<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The OOPS facility is owned by Auntie Cleo\u2019s but is no longer operated due to \u201cpink slip protocol\u201d being enacted\u2014hence all the dead scientists throughout the facility and the drones of auto-mechanicals. Upon exploration of the station, players can get a clear shot of what Olympus\u2019 atmosphere looks like in two unique places. The first is a primary room where players have to fight off auto-mechanicals, but can look around to get more information about the facility from the computers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second moment is when players have to ride to the top of the station to assist Dr. Low before getting <\/span>any information about Gorgon from him<\/span><\/a>. The long ride up gives a clear view of the stormy, electrified atmosphere that surrounds Olympus. In fact, these electricity storms are how the station maintained its power, which is why\u00a0players have to go up to the roof to turn it back on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Much like Mt. Olympus, the planet Olympus of <\/span>The Outer Worlds<\/span><\/i> is unattainable and only includes a small, nearly abandoned pharmaceutical station (or home of the gods). It\u2019s clear how Greek myth influenced the construction of this planet and how it functions within the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon<\/i><\/b> is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.<\/span><\/p>\n
