Ubisoft, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, has just announced the release of "Star Wars Outlaws," the first-ever open-world Star Wars game. Set to launch on August 30, the game will be available on Xbox Series X|S consoles, PlayStation 5, Amazon Luna, and PC through Ubisoft Connect.

"Star Wars Outlaws" introduces players to the cunning scoundrel Kay Vess and her companion Nix, who embark on a daring journey in search of the opportunity of a lifetime. Set during a time when the Empire’s rule is challenged by a relentless rebellion, the game promises a golden age for the underworld. Kay’s thieving skills attract the attention of Sliro, the leader of the ominous criminal syndicate Zerek Besh, who places a bounty on her head. To secure their freedom, Kay and Nix must execute one of the greatest heists ever attempted.
Creative Director Julian Gerighty shared, “In search of true freedom, the resourceful Kay and Nix will journey through the underworld and across the Outer Rim, taking on jobs from syndicates, facing off against intimidating foes, avoiding oppressive Imperial rule, and recruiting a skilled outlaw crew in order to pull off one of the greatest heists the galaxy has ever seen.”
Douglas Reilly, vice president of Lucasfilm Games, expressed excitement about the game, stating, “'Star Wars Outlaws' invites fans to experience a side of the galaxy that has a treasure trove yet to be explored, the exploits of the scoundrels taking advantage of the golden age of the underworld.”
Players will guide Kay and Nix as they traverse the galaxy, visiting iconic and new locations such as Canto Bight, Kijimi, Tatooine, Akiva, and Toshara. They’ll immerse themselves in bustling cities, engage in thrilling speeder races, and navigate their ship, the Trailblazer, through space while engaging in exciting dogfights with the Empire and other adversaries.
"Star Wars Outlaws" will be available through the Ubisoft Store and at retail for a suggested price of $69.99 for the base game. By subscribing to Ubisoft+ or purchasing the Gold or Ultimate Edition, players can access the game up to three days early*, along with additional content like the Season Pass, exclusive missions, and cosmetic packs.
