We’re getting a new Star Wars game, and it doesn’t look like it involves Jedis or the Skywalker family. Hard to believe, I know. Announced by Ubisoft back in 2021, we got a few glimpses of Star Wars Outlaws mid-last year, while a recent trailer gave us our best look at the game’s story.
Set between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, Star Wars Outlaws follows Kay, an up-and-coming scoundrel, who finds herself in hot water after crossing a new crime family.
Set in the galaxy’s rough Outer Rim, you’ll be pulling together Kay’s crew while also building her reputation with the various crime factions. These include the Hutts, the Pykes and even Crimson Dawn, which is being led by Qi’Ra, from the underrated Solo: A Star Wars Story. In terms of gameplay, Outlaws is taking an open-world route, where your dialogue choices and actions will determine your reputation within the universe’s seedy underworld – both good and bad.
Will they reveal that Kay is actually Luke Skywalker’s second cousin twice removed? It is Star Wars after all, so the odds aren’t zero.
Here’s where you can preorder the many editions of Star Wars Outlaws for cheap, ahead of its release on August 30.
