The Outer Worlds Companion Quest List

Each companion will come with their own individual quests. We’ve already put out a guide about Vicar Max’s companion quest – The Empty Man – and the rest of the companions will put you through something similar so you can get to know them better and to further their personal plots. Here’s a list of all the companion quests that are in The Outer Worlds, tagged with the companion that they relate to:

  • Worst Contact (Ellie)
  • The Low Crusade (Ellie)
  • Friendship’s Due (Felix)
  • Star-Crossed Troopers (Nyoka)
  • Drinking Sapphire Wine (Parvati)
  • Don’t Bite the Sun (Parvati)
  • The Cleaning Machine (SAM)
  • The Illustrated Manual (Vicar Max)
  • The Empty Man (Vicar Max)

We’ve included both any initial quests specific to recruiting that companion as well as their companion quest that kicks in once they’re a part of your crew, so you’ll be able to spot these and make sure that you’re picking up the right quests when you’re making first contact. Some of these might advance your companion’s love lives, others might simply a means to give them closure, but all of them are impactful to those that you add to your crew and they’re wonderful insights into the engaging NPCs that Obsidian has crafted. 

Now that you’ve got our Outer Worlds companion quest list to hand, you should find it easy to track the quests that you need to do to keep your favorite crew-mates happy. If you need a hand with anything else in The Outer Worlds, check out these other guides that we’ve worked on:
