Developer People Can Fly s co-op-focussed looter-shooter Outriders received a bit of a mixed critical reception at launch, but publisher Square Enix seems pretty happy with the public response, saying the game is poised to be the company s next big franchise after 3.5m unique players flocked to the experience in its first month.
