Star Wars Outlaws is an upcoming open-world action-adventure game set in the iconic Star Wars universe. Developed by Ubisoft Massive and published by Ubisoft, the game is set in the era of the Galactic Empire, between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and Star Wars Outlaws promises to offer a fresh perspective on a galaxy far, far away, featuring a new cast of characters, a vast open world, and a blend of action, exploration, and story-driven gameplay.
Star Wars Outlaws puts players in the role of Kay Vess, a rogue and outlaw trying to make her way through the dangerous and chaotic corners of the Star Wars galaxy. The game blends combat, action, stealth mechanics, vehicle-based exploration, and story-driven missions, providing a dynamic and immersive experience where players can choose their approach to challenges.
Unlike previous Star Wars games that have largely focused on Jedi or Sith characters, Outlaws offers the opportunity to experience the perspective of a rebel or smuggler, forging alliances with unlikely characters and navigating the criminal underworld. The game offers a new level of freedom, allowing players to explore planets, engage in firefights, and participate in heists and missions across a wide-open galaxy.
Star Wars Outlaws is set in a vast open world, giving players the freedom to explore multiple planets and environments, including urban cities, desert landscapes, jungle planets, and more. The game takes place across different regions of the galaxy, with each planet having its own culture, atmosphere, and challenges.
The combat system is a mix of third-person shooters and stealth gameplay, allowing players to choose between aggressive action and cautious tactics. Players can use shotguns, heavy weapons, and close-quarters combat to deal with enemies, or take a more stealthy approach by sneaking past enemies or using distractions.
The AI enemies vary by location, with Imperial soldiers, bounty hunters, and criminals posing different types of threats.
