This DLC introduces the Gorgon asteroid, where players explore a mysterious science outpost at the edge of the system.

However, to access the Peril on Gorgon content, players must meet certain prerequisites within the main story.
How to Access Peril on Gorgon DLC in The Outer Worlds
- Complete “Radio Free Monarch” Quest
To unlock the DLC, you need to progress through the main campaign until you complete the Radio Free Monarch quest. This mission takes place on the planet Monarch, and once it is completed, Nyoka will join your crew. If Nyoka is in your party, that’s a clear indicator you’ve completed this step. - Receive a Message from an Interplanetary Delivery Company
After completing Radio Free Monarch and continuing your journey, you’ll be hailed by an interplanetary delivery service while traveling within the Halcyon system. This event occurs no matter where you are, as long as you’ve progressed to this point in the story. The messenger from this company will deliver a mysterious box. - Open the Mysterious Box
Once the box is in your possession, head to your ship’s cargo hold. Open the box, and inside you’ll find a severed arm. This macabre discovery will trigger a conversation with your crew, during which the arm’s origins and purpose are discussed. - Travel to Gorgon
After examining the contents of the box, the Gorgon asteroid will become a new destination on your navigation map. You can now travel to Gorgon, where the DLC’s new content, storylines, and locations await.
By following these steps, you’ll gain access to the Peril on Gorgon DLC, allowing you to explore the asteroid and uncover the mysteries it holds.
