The latest patch for Outer Wilds may be minor, but it came with big news. While update 16 primarily addresses UI tweaks, localization improvements, and slight visual enhancements, the developers dropped a significant hint at the end of the patch notes. Mobius Digital revealed that their focus has shifted toward a brand-new game.

The team emphasized that Echoes of the Eye and the base game will no longer receive major updates. Only occasional small patches are likely from now on. The studio later clarified that the upcoming title is still in the early stages of development, which means players will need to wait patiently for concrete details.

Fans were quick to express their excitement. Given the critical acclaim of Outer Wilds — named Game of the Year in 2019 by multiple outlets and still holding a 95% positive rating on Steam — expectations are naturally sky-high. While no title or concept has been shared yet, the mere confirmation of a new project has reignited the community’s interest in Mobius Digital’s future.
