It’s been nearly a year since we got a first look at the upcoming Ubisoft Star Wars adventure, Star Wars Outlaws. It’s been the Star Wars game I’ve been looking forward to since it was announced not so long ago. So, I’m excited that we’re getting another look at the game and some story bits with the recently released Star Wars Outlaws Story Trailer.
While the Empire is busy trying to put down the Rebellion, the underworld, full of thieves, scoundrels, and the like, are looking at this as a prime opportunity to make some credits. Kay Vess, the character we’ll be playing in the game and a skilled thief, and her companion, Nix, have crossed the wrong person, Sliro, the leader of a new, foreboding criminal syndicate Zerek Besh, while trying to make a name for herself and now he wants her removed from the board.
All isn’t lost as Kay and Nix are offered their one shot at freedom by pulling off one of the greatest heists of all time. But, to pull off the job, Kay and Nix must navigate the underworld across the galaxy, building their reputation with legendary criminal organizations.
In addition to the Story Trailer, the release date for Star Wars Outlaws, August 30, 2024, has been revealed for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Ubisoft Connect).
