At the beginning of the game, players will be asked to create their own character, starting from choosing gender, hair color, accessories, eyes, and skin color. This game uses basic linear and not open world, one concept brought by this game is Looter-Shooter. This concept is also used by other shooter games.
Outriders will take you to shoot at existing enemies, and also loot on defeated enemies. The mechanics of this game are almost the same as in Gears Of War, considering that the developers of these two games are the same developer.
Later, you will be facilitated by 3 slots for weapons, which can be changed quickly, with easy controls to change weapons too. Because the AI enemy is not silent, it makes you have to be able to move more actively than the enemy.
One thing that makes the author very appreciative of developers in developing the gameplay of this game is the enemy AI which is designed very uniquely, different from other games.
This AI enemy is programmed to adjust skills to the players, so if you get better, AI enemies will develop according to the skills you have, and of course, items will be harder to find. This is very interesting because the skill of the game will continue to grow and players will not get bored quickly.
Control (9/10)

Maybe because the gameplay requires player agility, therefore the developer is also focusing on better game control, especially the control in changing weapons which the author has discussed above.
Graphics (9.5/10)

The texture of the characters looks very real, a little advice for you, you can try playing this game with a TV/Monitor with 4K resolution, so you can feel the graphic quality of this game.
