Ubisoft's upcoming open world Star Wars game Outlaws looks to be set for a «late» 2024 release.
Until today, the Ubisoft game held a much wider ranging 2024 release window. However, a Disney Parks blog post promoting a variety of events and such for the next 12 months has Star Wars Outlaws listed as arriving towards the tail end of the year.
«Star Wars Outlaws, the open world Star Wars game, is set to release late this year,» the post reads (thanks, IGN). «The game lets you explore distinct planets across the galaxy, both iconic and new. You can risk it all as Kay Vess, an emerging scoundrel seeking freedom and the means to start a new life, along with her companion Nix. If you're willing to take the risk, the galaxy is full of opportunity.»
This newly revealed release window provides further compelling evidence that Star Wars Outlaws may indeed be the mystery large game Ubisoft delayed from releasing before the end of this fiscal year.
Star Wars Outlaws is probably one of my more anticipated games of 2024 (being a Star Wars fan, that much is to be expected). But personal fandom aside, having read a few recent previews for the upcoming release, I am feeling cautiously optimistic.
Speaking with Kotaku, narrative director Navid Khavari stated players will be able to «go from on foot, to speeder, to your ship and easily jump between planets». It remains to be seen how seamless this will be in comparison to, say, Starfield's loading screens.
The developer also promised a «deeply immersive Star Wars journey», which we will be going on with scoundrel Kay Vess in the time between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Kay, it is worth mentioning, is not a Jedi, and I am looking forward to this more 'scrappy' gaming experience.
«We wanted to create a scoundrel who has never experienced anything like this before,» Khavari told Kotaku. «She hasn't figured it all out yet, and doesn't have all the right answers all the time. I hope players will see a bit of themselves in Kay.»
We will also be able to get some quests from none other than Jabba the Hutt, with other familiar faces also teased to be making a showing on the game's release.
Star Wars Outlaws is in development for PC, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. Its planets will all be hand-crafted rather than procedurally generated, and equivalent in size to two «zones» in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. Don't feel too overwhelmed by this news, though. Despite its open world, Star Wars Outlaws won't be a «300 hour epic unfinishable RPG», the developer has said.

is already positioned to have a busy year in 2024, with many planned releases for its upcoming sets that will further the story and introduce new cards to the TCG, as well as a specially designed introductory set. Ravensburger recently announced a roadmap of when people can expect to see additional sets debut for the game, with a new one arriving roughly every three months. This is continuing an ongoing theme of quarterly releases after the initial in August 2023 and launching a few months later in November.
A Star Wars fan has put forth an unconventional replacement for Mara Jade, one of the fandom's most beloved former characters. The suggestion, however, has been met with less than enthusiastic responses from other users.
In the recent MCU flop era, the Disney Plus series What If...? has proven to be one of Marvel Studios' more creative and popular ventures, and according to a new rumor, the Star Wars franchise may be getting its version.
We already knew that Ubisoft was plotting a 2024 launch for its open world sci-fi shooter Star Wars Outlaws, but a since-edited post on a Disney Parks blog may have nailed down more precisely when we can expect to visit a galaxy far, far away. Multiple outlets, including IGN, noticed the original blurb referenced a “late this year” release window for the title – but that line’s since been edited to a more neutral “in 2024”.
When Star Wars Outlaws was formally unveiled in June, Ubisoft handed it a general 2024 release window, and that release window was seemingly narrowed down by a recent Disney blog post that stated the open world action-adventure game would be out sometime in “late” 2024.
Star Wars fans looking forward to Ubisoft's Star Wars Outlaws got an update to the game's release timing yesterday — and then didn't.
Yesterday (January 2), it temporarily appeared that Star Wars Outlaws’ vague 2024 release had been narrowed down with an all-new launch window. However, Ubisoft has now stated that this was an error, and the old, incorrect information has already been removed.
Star Wars Outlaws is the biggest and most significant release Ubisoft has planned for this year, and it certainly looked impressive in its first showings back in June. In a new preview published by Kotaku, more brief details have been revealed on the action-adventure title’s open world setting and what players can expect from it.
Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft's expansive open-world game set in the galaxy far, far away, was briefly known to be eyeing a ‘late 2024' release window, as per a recent Disney Parks blog. That has since been corrected to reflect a general timespan this year, with the publisher confirming to Kotaku that the timing was incorrectly displayed. First revealed during an Xbox Showcase last year, the title is set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi movies, and introduces Kay Vess, a space scoundrel with a bounty on her head after botching up a job. Joining her on the crusade is the adorable axolotl-like alien Nix, performing certain actions at your command — akin to the BD-1 droid from Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
Disney dropped a blog post today teasing what the House of Mouse has in store for fans across the next 12 months. Among the things the company reaffirmed was that Star Wars Outlaws is indeed coming this year.
A report stemming from a Disney Parks blog post earlier today suggested that the upcoming Ubisoft game would be coming out in late 2024. However, Ubisoft has since clarified the post in a statement.
