Massive Entertainment and Ubisoft have released a captivating new story trailer for their upcoming video game, “Star Wars Outlaws,” which is set to hit shelves on August 30, 2024. This open-world sci-fi adventure follows the daring escapades of Kay Vess, a rogue reminiscent of Han Solo, and her loyal Merqaal alien companion, Nix.
The trailer unveils breathtaking glimpses of iconic and never-before-seen planets across the Star Wars galaxy. Players will embark on a thrilling adventure alongside Kay Vess as she navigates dangerous encounters with notorious crime syndicates. From facing off against the ruthless Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine to encountering beloved characters like Han Solo frozen in carbonite, the trailer teases a universe brimming with familiar faces and captivating storylines.
Despite concerns surrounding the game’s $70 price tag, the announcement of a $110 Gold Edition has sparked excitement among dedicated gamers. This edition offers three days of early access and an Ubisoft season pass, granting access to two post-launch story DLCs, the Jabba’s Gambit mission, and the Kessel Runner Character cosmetic pack. The Ultimate Edition, priced at $130, includes all the Gold Edition perks, plus two additional cosmetic bundles and a digital art book.
However, one aspect that has raised some eyebrows is the game’s requirement for an active internet connection, even for those with physical copies. “Star Wars Outlaws” is set to land on August 30 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, promising an immersive open-world experience that will surely captivate Star Wars enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.
