I'm sorry Ms Jackson (woo) can't find any thing to confirm that...

(did you see what I did there...Outcast/Outkast? See it's humour..)

Afaik it is still a possibility (although I suspect it will never see the light of day.

Loved the game, and liked the graphics. The voxel engine is better for landscapes than poly-based engines. I remember even John Carmack complaining the graphics cards manufacturers were going in the wrong direction with the polgon-technology instead of creating cards with hardware-voxel support.

yeah, it seems to have a very slim chance - thought depends if infogrames releases the rights. otherwise it'll have the same fate as the Babylon 5 thing Sierra kept to themselves

http://www.outcastii.net has some more information about the possible future

Yeah, Outcast is my favourite game ever. It's only a couple of years ago that FSAA became standard in games, but Outcast had it in 1999! In software! Plus a whole load of other visual effects that only got widely adopted years later
