bp9801 Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 The definitive version of Wasteland 2 has arrived at last, with Wasteland 2: Director's Cut now available to download on Steam. It should also be available on GOG, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One when those respective stores update in the Americas (Europe is October 16). Wasteland 2: Director's Cut incorporates a whole host of new features, from new voiceovers to improved/rebalanced gameplay, a Perks system to take advantage of when leveling up, new Quirks to add a positive and negative gameplay element to each character's personality, and plenty more. The graphics engine has been overhauled to Unity 5, so that means the game will look vastly better for anyone who played it before, and gives it plenty of new enhancements, such as improved character models, revamped lighting, and new environment art to really stand out. To highlight some of this, inXile has released the Wasteland 2: Director's Cut launch trailer, giving you a fantastic idea of what to expect when you load up the game. Wasteland 2: Director's Cut is a separate file in Steam and other digital platforms, so you will need to download it all over again. It's a 15GB download, which winds up being about 4GB less than the original version. Sadly, PC players won't be able to use their past saves in the Director's Cut due to all the changes possibly destroying any chance of compatibility. It's a small price to pay, but well worth it to experience the game all over again. System requirements are the same, except the Director's Cut now requires a 64-bit operating system. For more information on the specific changes and features, and to give you something to read while the game is downloading, the FAQ on the Wasteland 2 website covers the main details. Wasteland 2: Director's Cut is a free download for all current PC/Mac/Linux owners, and a $40 purchase for everybody else on regardless of computer or console.
