Ubisoft has released the huge and highly anticipated Title Update 1.4.0 for Star Wars Outlaws on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC, which, perhaps most notably, cuts stealth requirements from almost the entire game.
A blog post detailed the patch notes, which are available below, and confirmed the removal of forced stealth (meaning players will no longer have to return to a checkpoint when triggering "do not raise the alarm" or "do not get caught" objectives) alongside improvements to enemy AI and detection, facial expressions and animations, and more.
"This Title Update brings changes to combat and stealth allowing for greater player choice, the ability to now keep pick-up weapons in more situations, visual options to allow for a sharper image and much more to improve your journey across the galaxy," Ubisoft said.
It doesn't address the issues affecting some PC players who updated to Windows 11 24H2, however, but Ubisoft said it is "working hard to deploy a permanent fix" as soon as possible.
Star Wars Outlaws creative director Drew Rechner promised to make big changes to "elevate the game experience to better meet" player expectations.
Sentiments such as these are often seen in the wake of disastrous game launches but Star Wars Outlaws debuted to positive reviews. Poor sales shook a struggling Ubisoft, however, and it is now working to improve the game ahead of what it hopes will be a sales bump alongside its Steam launch and the holiday period.
