‘Star Wars: Outlaws’ — the first ever open-world ‘Star Wars’ game — wants you to ‘risk it all’
wegotthiscovered.comWhen it comes to the Star Warsfranchise, fans have to admit that the galaxy far, far away has been treating us well with the likes of Andor and the upcoming Ahsoka. But the real cherry on the cake has been only revealed now — Star War: Outlaws, the first open-world Star Wars game, has finally blessed us with its first glimpse after Microsoft and Unisoft debuted a trailer for the new game at the Xbox Games Showcase today.
Set to release in 2024, the game is set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
“Explore distinct planets across the galaxy, both iconic and new. Risk it all as Kay Vess, an emerging scoundrel seeking freedom and the means to start a new life, along with her companion Nix. Fight, steal, and outwit your way through the galaxy’s crime syndicates as you join the galaxy’s most wanted.”
In its press release for the game (via IGN), Lucasfilm Games VP Douglas Reilly has assured fans that Star Wars: Outlaws will be “an action-adventure story filled with characters and planets both new and well-known to the Star Wars galaxy.”
While the trailer is high on action and rolls out a gripping tale of surviving the crime syndicates as Kay Vess as she attempts “one of the greatest heists the Outer Rim has ever seen,” it does leave much to be desired. But the trailer confirms that we will be treated to a full gameplay walkthrough and more footage during the Ubisoft Forward event on June 12, i.e., tomorrow. Yay!!
Hype and hope are both at an all-time high for the game as avid gamers ponder and cautiously dream of it managing to be a stellar deep dive into the world of Star Wars despite harboring concerns that it might end up being another underperforming game from Ubisoft.
