Star Wars Outlaws: Special Edition

About

Star Wars Outlaws: Special Edition lets you play as Kay Vess, a thief navigating the galaxy’s underworld between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. You’ll roam planets like Dantooine and Mustafar, stealing cargo, taking down rival gangs, and evading Imperial forces. The game mixes stealth, combat, and heist-style planning, with Nix as your tech-savvy sidekick handling hacking and distractions. Progress by upgrading your ship, weapons, and skills to tackle bigger targets and riskier jobs. This edition adds the Sabacc Shark character pack, which introduces a new playable figure with unique abilities. While some players note pacing issues in side content, the main story delivers a gritty, swashbuckling take on Star Wars with plenty of vertical traversal and chaotic firefights. Released August 30, 2024, it’s available on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Early reviews highlight its ambitious open-world design but suggest tighter mission variety would have elevated the experience.
