Star Wars Outlaws Gets New Trailer and a Release Date

Ubisoft’s promised story trailer for Star Wars Outlaws has arrived, revealing new characters, gameplay, and when fans can play it!

Learn more about Kay Vess, and her quest for freedom, thanks to the all new story trailer for Star Wars Outlaws. As many of us suspected (especially as promo material was hitting store shelves and the game had been getting ratings classification all over), today’s new trailer also gave fans a release date: August 30th!

I’m definitely ready for this. Everything they’ve shown so far has been pretty great, and considering how much I LOVED Ubisoft/Massive’s Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, my hype is pretty high for Outlaws. I’m digging the underworld vibes (though I still wish we’d expand to other periods of time) and I’m curious to see what other characters might pop up. All in all, this is a solid trailer that teases some good stuff, while still leaving me wanting more!

Ubisoft revealed more details about cunning scoundrel Kay Vess and her companion Nix’s search for an opportunity of a lifetime. During this era, the Empire’s rule is distracted by the rebellion that won’t quit, leading to a golden age for the underworld. As a skilled thief, Kay’s antics catch the attention of Sliro, the leader of a new, foreboding criminal syndicate Zerek Besh. After Sliro places a bounty on Kay’s head, Kay and Nix are offered their one shot at freedom – pull off one of the greatest heists of all time. Kay and Nix will need to navigate the underworld across the galaxy, building their reputation with legendary criminal organizations including the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Cartel, the Ashiga Clan** and Crimson Dawn to earn the support they need to finish the job.

 

“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,” shared Julian Gerighty, Creative Director.

 

“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. We’ve been inspired by Massive Entertainment’s dedication to bringing this aspect of Star Wars to life, including both iconic and new things for fans to explore in an open world,” said Douglas Reilly, vice president, Lucasfilm Games.

 

Kay and Nix will travel across the galaxy to gain the right resources and crew for the ultimate heist. In their journey, they’ll travel across distinct locations, both iconic and new: Canto Bight, Kijimi, Tatooine, Akiva, and the windswept savannah of Toshara**. Along the way, Kay will explore bustling cities and cantinas, race across sprawling outdoor landscapes on her speeder, and pilot her ship the Trailblazer through the wilds of space. When things go awry, the Trailblazer will also help them chase, evade and attack to gain the upper hand in thrilling dogfights with the Empire and other foes.
