The Outfit was THQ’s first Xbox 360 game and Relic’s first console game. I was the lead internal Producer, from concept to completion, managing a team of nearly 100 development staff. The Outfit is a third person, squad-based action game with the strategic depth of a ground-based RTS.
The game features 12 single player levels and 12 multiplayer levels, along with split screen, co-op, death match, strategic victory and destruction mode. Use Destruction on Demand to call in tanks, squads, machine guns and more on the fly.
By far the best console game I’ve ever played. Please Adrian push this concept to other developers so we can see more Outfit style games in the future.
Just stumbled on your website. I really enjoyed The Outfit. Multiplayer was a lot of fun as well.
It’s a shame I never was able to complete it. Somehow VGA video mode isn’t supported.
The outfit is the best game ever make a second one please
I which there was coming a second verion.
I think the need is high under the players. New maps, other wapons.
Why not ?
People didn’t see the fun in it? The comments in the game everything . This is just a fun game. Great, still play it every day.
Hi Guys!
Thanks for the positive comments on The Outfit. We had a great time making it and we’re happy with how the multiplayer turned out, especially. I think the single player wasn’t as good and was almost a different game entirely.
Re: a sequel, it’s been a few years since I worked for Relic so I don’t know what they have planned. I don’t think anything is in the works, but I still know a lot of the guys there and I am sure their next console project will be as high quality as everything they do.

BTW, you’re right, Htbaa – VGA mode was not supported. I will take the blame for that. At the time, it wasn’t a Microsoft requirement to support it and that feature came down to a cost benefit analysis as we neared launch. Unfortunately, VGA mode just didn’t make the cut.
This is the greatest game ever. I know there isnt another one in the works but i wish there was something we could do about adding this game to “Games on Demand” via xbox live. “Games on Demand” is fairly new feature for xbox, which allows xbox gamers to download games directly to their hard drive. This is the perfect game for it. Any suggestions on who I can talk to to possibly get this pushed forward?
Hi Joseph,
Thanks for the glowing praise on The Outfit. I will email you with a contact you can be in touch with re: getting The Outfit on Games on Demand. I appreciate you looking out for the title!
Happy gaming,
Adrian
one of my all time favorites. just wished another one would come down the tubes. stopped playing it because of the red ring and then i got rainbow six but still this game is awesome.
