Star Wars Outlaws: The First Open-World Star Wars Game Now Available on Consoles and PC
Today marks a monumental day for Star Wars fans as Ubisoft, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, officially launches Star Wars Outlaws, the first-ever open-world Star Wars game. Now available on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®5, Amazon Luna, and PC via the Ubisoft Store and Epic Games Store, this game promises to deliver an unparalleled experience within the Star Wars galaxy.
A Bold New Adventure Set in the Star Wars Universe
Developed by Massive Entertainment, Star Wars Outlaws is set in a time between Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back™ and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™. As the Galactic Empire tightens its grip on the galaxy in its final push to defeat the Rebel Alliance, the criminal underworld finds itself in a golden age of opportunity. Players step into the shoes of Kay Vess, voiced by Humberly González, a cunning scoundrel with a knack for getting into—and out of—trouble. Alongside her loyal companion, Nix, voiced by Dee Bradley Baker of Star Wars: The Bad Batch™ fame, Kay embarks on an ambitious heist that could change her life forever.
A Thriving Underworld and a Daring Heist
The Empire’s focus on the Rebellion leaves the galaxy’s underworld ripe for exploitation. Kay Vess, a skilled thief, seizes this opportunity, catching the attention of Sliro, the formidable leader of the new criminal syndicate, Zerek Besh. With a bounty on her head, Kay must navigate a treacherous path through the galaxy’s most infamous crime syndicates, including the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Cartel, the Ashiga Clan, and Crimson Dawn. Her ultimate goal? To pull off one of the greatest heists the Outer Rim has ever seen, securing her freedom in the process.
Gameplay: Stealth, Combat, and Choices That Matter
In Star Wars Outlaws, players have the freedom to approach challenges in multiple ways. Whether through stealth, using Nix to distract enemies, or engaging in blaster combat, Kay Vess is equipped to handle whatever the galaxy throws her way. However, each decision players make will have consequences, impacting Kay’s reputation with various criminal syndicates. As players build alliances and gather resources, they’ll need to consider how their actions shape Kay’s standing in the underworld.
Explore Iconic and New Locations Across the Galaxy
From the bustling cities of Canto Bight to the remote wilderness of Toshara, Star Wars Outlaws offers a rich tapestry of locations to explore. Players will pilot Kay’s ship, the Trailblazer, across the galaxy, engaging in thrilling dogfights and navigating treacherous terrain. Whether racing across sprawling landscapes on a speeder or infiltrating secret strongholds, each environment is filled with opportunities for discovery and adventure.
