Ubisoft’s highly anticipated open-world scoundrel simulator, Star Wars Outlaws, is making waves in the gaming world. Recent data from the PlayStation Store reveals the game is performing well in terms of pre-orders, securing a spot within the top 10 best-selling games on Sony’s digital platform. This placement places Star Wars Outlaws among gaming giants like NBA 2K25, GTA V, and Roblox, suggesting a significant level of player anticipation.
This positive pre-order performance is further bolstered by the game’s reception on Metacritic, where it has garnered a respectable 77 rating based on generally positive reviews. Although precise pre-order data for other platforms like Xbox and Steam is currently unavailable, Star Wars Outlaws is not being offered on Steam due to pre-existing agreements. Instead, Ubisoft is distributing the game through their own store and the Epic Games Store.
While specific sales figures remain unknown, Ubisoft is expected to provide more concrete information regarding Star Wars Outlaws’ performance during their upcoming Q2 earnings call. The initial signs, particularly the PS5 pre-order success, are encouraging for the game’s overall launch.
Star Wars Outlaws is set to release on August 30, 2024, for a suggested retail price of $69.99 on all platforms.
