Outriders changes quickly as you progress in the early hours, so we gathered 10 essential tips to get you on your feet and get better loot!

Outriders is now out for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, PC, and Stadia. For the most part, the loot shooter/RPG hybrid is pretty straightforward, but a few of its mechanics and systems could use a bit more clarification.

In the video above, Jordan Ramée details 10 tips for how to be a better Outrider in Outriders. Some of the advice is geared towards ensuring you're always finding the best loot, whether that's from chests hidden throughout the planet of Enoch or from World Tier rewards.
