Star Wars Outlaws is Ubisoft’s first Star Wars game, coming 2024
Shown off at the Xbox Showcase, the game is coming to Xbox Series X/S.
A new trailer for Star Wars Outlaws was shown off at the Xbox Games Showcase. It's coming to the Xbox Series X/S in 2024, with gameplay set to be shown off during the Ubisoft event tomorrow.
This is Ubisoft's first foray into a galaxy far, far away ever since it messed around with its Star Wars Just Dance Kinect Game ages ago, and as far as CG trailers go, the game has us very much intrigued. You can watch the trailer for yourself below.
Judging by the title and what we see in the trailer, the game seems to be diving into more of the gritty blaster battles and shady dealings of the Star Wars universe than lightsabers and epic duels. Accoring to the description of the trailer on Ubisoft's Youtube channel, the game is the first-ever open world Star Wars game, set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
In it, you will explore several planets as space scoundrel Kay Vess, who we see get into all manner of trouble in the trailer. The descritpion also seems to put us against the forces of the galaxy's many dangerous crime syndicates, which is a nice change of direction from the force-heavy focus of recent games like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
The game is also headed to PC and PS5.
What did you think of the trailer? Let us know below, as well as your thoughts on the rest of the Xbox Games Showcase. In case you missed it, Fable also got a lush new trailer which has us very excited.
