The Outer Worlds 2 is set in an alternate future that diverged from our timeline in 1901 when U.S. President William McKinley was not assassinated. As a result, Theodore Roosevelt never succeeded him as President, and the great business trusts of the era were not broken up. This led to the emergence of a hyper-capitalist, class-centric society dominated by the power of megacorporations. The advent of faster-than-light travel allows megacorporations to establish colonies on distant planets, which they terraform with varying results.

Where The Outer Worlds was set in the colony of Halcyon, The Outer Worlds 2 takes place in the colony of Arcadia. The player takes on the role of a commander working for the Earth Directorate, an administrative body tasked with coordinating between Earth and its intergalatic colonies. The player is sent to Arcadia to investigate rifts in the fabric of space and time that have cut the colonies off from Earth entirely.There, they discover a brewing conflict between three factions:

The Protectorate, a totalitarian government which governs much of the colony and holds a monopoly over superluminal travel
Auntie's Choice, a megacorporation formed by the merger of pharmaceutical company Auntie Cleo's and consumer goods manufacturer Spacer's Choice, which seeks to overthrow the Protectorate in order to monopolize the colony and hypersonic travel for themselves.
The Order of the Ascendant, a religious order who believe the universe is governed by mathematical equations and intend to use the resources of Arcadia to bring a new age of enlightenment for humanity.

During development of the first game, Obsidian Entertainment was acquired by Microsoft and integrated as a first-party developer for Xbox Game Studios in November 2018.While the arrangement did not affect the game's original distribution plans,Microsoft acquired all publishing duties for "future iterations" of The Outer Worlds from Private Division by May 2021.A sequel to the game had entered development in September 2019, two months before The Outer Worlds launched.

In January 2024, The Outer Worlds director Tim Cain, who left Obsidian in 2020 and considered himself retired from the games industry, revealed that he remained attached to The Outer Worlds 2 as a creative consultant during its production.Cain praised the game's team as they had "figured out" a solution to a specific problem the developer had continued to struggle with across all his previous titles, referencing production notes he recalled from creating the original Fallout in 1997, and he frequently assisted staff in identifying "pitfalls" in the game's overall quality.In August 2024, Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart provided an update on the game, saying it "is looking incredible" despite conflicts with the game's planned production timeline.
