Star Wars Outlaws: A Pirate’s Fortune Story Pack Drops May 15 — Plus, Free Demo Now Available and Nintendo Switch 2 Release Date Announced
The galaxy just got a little more dangerous. As part of Star Wars Celebration, Ubisoft revealed a brand-new trailer for Star Wars Outlaws: A Pirate’s Fortune — the second major story pack for the critically acclaimed scoundrel sandbox adventure. Launching May 15, 2025, the story expansion adds a treasure-hunting questline, legendary pirates, and an exciting new smuggling faction to the already expansive world of Star Wars Outlaws.
Whether you're a returning player, a curious fan, or someone holding out for Nintendo’s next-gen hardware, there's plenty of reason to set your sights on the stars, especially with a free game demo available now and a confirmed Nintendo Switch 2 release date of September 4, 2025.
Let’s break down all the key announcements.
New Story Pack: A Pirate’s Fortune
Kay Vess is back, and this time, she’s diving deep into pirate territory. In A Pirate’s Fortune, Kay and her ever-reliable companion Nix team up with Hondo Ohnaka — a fan-favourite rogue from the Clone Wars and Rebels — to uncover ancient riches hidden within the Khepi Tomb.
But it won’t be a simple dig.
Opposing her quest is the ruthless Stinger Tash and the Rokana Raiders, a rival pirate crew standing in her way. Players will also encounter the Miyuki Trade League, a shadowy smuggling organization that offers new risky missions in exchange for rare rewards.
How to Access A Pirate’s Fortune
To embark on this new adventure, players must have completed the main storyline of Star Wars Outlaws. Once done, the story pack will unlock:
- Free for Season Pass owners
- Included in the Ultimate and Deluxe Editions
- Available separately for purchase
Additionally, Deluxe and Ultimate Edition players will also receive two cosmetic packs at launch:
- Naboo Nobility Pack
- Desert Nomad Pack
Free Demo Now Available on All Major Platforms
