Reception

Echoes of the Eye’s surprising deviations wind up enhancing both the main game and its own identity.

Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye intelligently builds upon the strong base of Outer Wilds, while only stumbling when trying drastically new ideas.

The announcement for a DLC to Outer Wilds left many people asking questions about the nature of its story. With Outer Wilds already feeling so complete on its own, players wondered what more a DLC could add to this world. How can you give an answer when there isn't a question?

Everything you wanted from an Outer Wilds DLC in a package you never thought to expect. Echoes of the Eye puts its own twists on the base game's formula without a single misstep.

Although the quality of the puzzles remains the same this unexpected expansion certainly isn't just more of the same, with an unexpected new survival horror element.
