of all time, and yet, fans have been itching for a full-blown open-world game set in George Lucas' universe for more than a decade now. Now,For those who haven't been following Massive Entertainment's AAA behemoth: Star Wars Outlaws follows young scoundrel Kay Vess and her cute little alien pet, Nix, as they try to earn a better life for themselves by working with a bunch of shady figures and doing high-stakes heists. That totally doesn't sound risky at all.
The most surprising reveal comes right at the start, as we're shown how the progression system for Kay's abilities and skills works. Unlike in other traditional open-world titles, she's got to learn new tricks from 'experts' found across the galaxy, including a Jawa. It appears Star Wars Outlaws will be encouraging true exploration and engaging with the colorful Star Wars underworld, rather than crossing tasks off a checklist and grinding for better gear. That said, expect plenty of secondary activities and cool new equipment to find as you explore the game's many planets.
The latter section doubles down on the 'Grand Theft Auto but Star Wars' angle, with infiltration, witty dialogue, and snappy action taking over.
