Uncertainty Surrounds Star Wars Outlaws Release Date Amid Disney-Ubisoft Discrepancy
Excitement has been building among Star Wars fans as they eagerly await the release of "Star Wars Outlaws," an upcoming open-world game developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft. However, conflicting information has recently emerged regarding the game's release date, adding an element of uncertainty to the anticipation.
In a recent blog post on Disney Parks, the release date for Star Wars Outlaws was seemingly narrowed down to the late months of 2024. The original post explicitly stated, "Star Wars Outlaws, the open-world Star Wars game is set to release late this year." This sparked enthusiasm among fans who have been eagerly anticipating the game since its unveiling last summer.
However, the excitement was short-lived as a Ubisoft spokesperson contradicted the Disney Parks blog post, claiming that the release information provided was incorrect. According to Ubisoft, Star Wars Outlaws still maintains a vague release window of "2024," without specifying any particular months. The blog post on Disney Parks was subsequently edited to reflect the game's previously announced release window without the specific late 2024 date.
The conflicting information has left fans in a state of confusion, wondering whether the initial blog post was accurate or if Ubisoft's correction is the official stance. Disney Parks is considered an official source, adding credibility to the initially specified late 2024 release date. However, the correction by Ubisoft suggests that perhaps the release details were not intended to be revealed at this time.
As of now, none of the official store pages for Star Wars Outlaws provide a specific release date, further contributing to the uncertainty surrounding the game's launch. The absence of even a vague promise for a release date raises questions about the timing of the game's availability on platforms such as PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.
Star Wars Outlaws was unveiled to the public last summer, showcasing both cinematic and gameplay footage. The collaboration between Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment has been in the works since 2021, with the game reportedly being in development for four years by the time of its announcement. Despite this, the release date remains elusive, leaving fans to speculate on when they can immerse themselves in the Star Wars universe through this highly anticipated title.
The uncertainty surrounding the release date of Star Wars Outlaws adds an unexpected twist to the excitement surrounding the game. While Disney Parks initially hinted at a late 2024 launch, Ubisoft's contradiction has muddled the waters. As fans eagerly await further clarification from official sources, the anticipation for Star Wars Outlaws continues to grow, with the hope that a concrete release date will be unveiled soon. Until then, enthusiasts remain on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the chance to explore the galaxy far, far away in this promising open-world Star Wars adventure.
