The Outer Worlds 2 is two weeks away, and Mircosoft and developer Obsidian are keeping up the hype by introducing the Moon Man as a Couch-Panion. This is a joke, and yet it’s very real at the same time, as seen in the video below.
“This isn’t just merch,” reads the description on Xbox Wire. “This isn’t just a plush. This is a lifestyle choice. A statement piece. A co-pilot for every late-night quest and awkward snack run. It’s satire you can hug–and proof that The Outer Worlds 2 lives beyond the game.”
The Moon Man Couch-Panion is three feet tall and includes a popcorn bucket holder in its head, weird stress-ball squishy hands, and straps designed to hold a TV remote and an Xbox Wireless Controller. It’s also got a creepy face that only a nightmare could love. And while these Couch-Panions aren’t going to heading to stores, fans will get their chance to win one.
Starting today and going through November 16, Microsoft is running a contest that will let ten fans receive a Moon Man Couch-Panion of their own. To enter on X, players need to follow Xbox on the platform and repost the original Moon Man Couch-Panion contest post with the #MoonManSweepstakes hashtag. Instagram users can also join in by following Xbox on Instagram and by commenting on the official contest post with the #MoonManSweepstakes hashtag before the end of the contest period.
Microsoft recently unveiled a pair of limited-edition Outer Worlds 2 Xbox Wireless Controllers, which are customizable and more expensive than the game’s $70 price.
The Outer Worlds 2 will hit Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on October 29, and will be a day-one Game Pass Ultimate release. Obsidian shared the launch times earlier this week, while early-access players will get to dive into it on October 24.
