Following the release of The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition on March 7, there have been a variety of reports popping up from players about bugs and issues that have negatively impacted their experience with the game. Among these are issues with the game’s frame rates, with noticeable frame rate drops experienced even on higher-end PCs.
