It's a big, fun game with an interesting story and a likeable protagonist that brings a new perspective to the Star Wars universe. The story of the Rebels' fight against the Empire takes on new shape through her eyes. And just as she brings a new perspective to the story, she brings a new gameplay to the universe. One based on intelligent and quiet progression through well-designed environments. You can enjoy all of this here, except that the game would have benefited from another 2 months or so of fine-tuning.

Exploring a different aspect of the Star Wars world, Ubisoft and Massive Studios did a decent job in taking a more open-world approach and proving that the Star Wars universe still has a massive potential for the future, and more importantly, Ubisoft can still publish good games.

Massive Entertainment created breathtaking environments across the galaxy, delivered a fast-paced combat system true to the scoundrel style, and crafted a story that rivals the modern movies. Star Wars Outlaws is, simply put, the Star Wars game of a generation.

Star Wars Outlaws is an epic journey worth living. It's an adventure that not only captures all those elements that have made Star Wars one of the most beloved franchises in all of entertainment, but also feels like a new era for Ubisoft. After several content bloated releases and a tired formula, it delivers a journey that lasts as long as it needs to and replaces tedious mechanics with systems that reward you for doing what matters most: having fun.

A Star Wars fan will find many beautiful details in Outlaws that appeal to them. In particular, the crime gap between the 5th and 6th film is perfectly reflected in the gameplay. Those who like the classic Ubisoft formula will also be very pleased with the abundance of planets and atmosphere changes.

Star Wars Outlaws is an entertaining game from start to finish that delivers an amazing gunplay, beautiful world and ample content. That being said, technical issues are still present and side quests and side activity lack the depth and variety we would expect. Nonetheless, you're going to have a blast playing Star Wars Outlaws!

Outlaws is a fantastic adventure worthy of the Star Wars universe. Competent in several areas and shaking up the Ubisoft open world formula for its games, Kay Vess' adventure is fun and interesting from start to finish, filled with unique details of an incredible universe.

Star Wars Outlaws is a compact, charming, and highly entertaining open-world video game. Despite some issues, I recommend it to fans of story-driven open-world games. Ubisoft Massive’s new game breaks away from the routine patterns of Assassin’s Creed or Far Cry and draws inspiration from other well-tested games in this genre. Overall, Star Wars Outlaws is a game that both Star Wars fans and Open World game enthusiasts will enjoy playing.

Star Wars Outlaws could have been THE Star War game. It provided a rich world and lore that kept me intrigued for hours, but the gameplay systems are not only marred by technical problems but it even lacked the execution despite the brilliant ideas it has

Star Wars Outlaws is a smuggler with flaws that are easy to turn a blind eye to and be charmed by despite them. The cinematic story told keeps you intrigued until the end, the worlds are pleasing to the eye, and the gameplay offers a variety of attractions. Yes, there are problems, but they are not very painful, you can get used to them, sometimes you just need to grit your teeth and curse at the screen. The Force in this game turned out to be stronger than I assumed.

Star Wars Outlaws is a love letter to Star Wars fans, providing one of the most beautiful exploration experiences recently with a great embodiment of the Star Wars universe , and a stunning artistic direction. With a good story in general, despite some flaws, and an excellent fighting style, whether you are using the Plaster or your spaceship. What's wrong with the game is the overly linear mission design and of course the technical level, which is full of problems and not befitting a AAA game.

Star Wars: Outlaws was a game that I was really looking forward to. While I have small issues with the game from its lack of innovation in stealth to its fairly basic space combat, the story Massive Entertainment has told within the Star Wars universe was really fantastic and gave me a small group of characters to really root for. Humberly González is fantastic as Kay and Jay Rincon is a standout with ND-5. What Massive Entertainment has done here is breathtaking and is something that only could have been done in a video game. This take on Star Wars is frankly the best we’ve seen in a video game, and all without a Jedi in sight.

Like a Stormtrooper it often misses its mark, but sometimes it surprises and nails the shot. The last third of the game is vastly superior and shows some great promise, while the smart skill system and many small improvements on Ubisoft’s open-world template all give me hope that the French publisher is willing to move away from its bloated, rote designs.

Star Wars Outlaws just didn’t have a lot of cool elements to make it stand out from the rest of the crowd. There isn’t a lot in it that’s actually bad, broken, or unpolished, but rarely did it ever excite me. It’s your run-of-the-mill open world AAA game, one you’ve played a million times before from Ubisoft and other studios, with all the generic clichés you’d expect from the most default of titles in the genre. It just so happens to be drenched in a Star Wars coat of paint.

Star Wars: Outlaws is not the open-world Star Wars dream we had hoped for, but we can't deny that Kay Vess' adventure was still enjoyable. Unfortunately, Ubisoft didn't stray far from its typical open-world formula and fell short with the protagonist, who lacks the effective characterization needed to make players empathize with her or become truly invested in her story.

Star Wars Outlaws represents a significant advancement in open-world design for Ubisoft. Despite a flawed middle section, the game excels in its opening and closing hours, showcasing a promising shift towards deeper immersion. The game’s structural innovation positions it as a bridge between Ubisoft’s traditional formula and a more immersive experience. However, technical issues such as frequent crashes, glitches, and outdated AI detract from the otherwise engaging Star Wars experience. These issues prevent the game from fully realizing its potential in my opinion.

On paper, Star Wars Outlaws has all the necessary elements to be a great open-world action-adventure but sadly, these elements never come together in a way that would create an engaging gameplay experience.

Star Wars Outlaws offers a fresh take on the franchise. While it has great visuals and solid gameplay, it relies on familiar open-world tropes, which may not appeal to everyone. The protagonist, Kay Vess, and her companion, Nix, offer enjoyable interactions, but some missions and stealth elements can feel repetitive.

I really enjoyed my adventure in Star Wars Outlaws, despite its lacklustre gameplay. For me, the game's strength lies above all in its narrative and the introduction of many original characters. I think that for Star Wars fans, it's also a great way of enriching our knowledge of certain little-known aspects of the universe. The fact that we can explore the different criminal factions at a key moment in history is super interesting. I hope we'll see more titles from the universe that try new recipes like this one. Until then, I'll be the first to jump into the DLC that's already planned.
