A new Star Wars video game has been announced!

A collaboration between Massive Entertainment, Ubisoft, and Lucasfilm Games, Star Wars Outlaws is coming in 2024! The game is set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi and follows the adventures of Kay Vess, a new scoundrel in the Star Wars underworld.

StarWars.com describes the story of the game as follows,

“Kay and Nix will explore sprawling landscapes of Star Wars locations both old and new. Kay will race across the humid jungles of Akiva and the windswept savannah of Toshara on her speeder, then jump into the pilot seat of her ship, the Trailblazer, to travel to other parts of the galaxy. From dogfights to high-risk, high-reward missions from crime syndicates, the choices Kay makes can influence her ever-changing reputation. When Kay and Nix find themselves in a sticky situation, she’ll have her trusty blaster, can employ stealth and gadgets, or wait for the right moment to distract enemies.”

The role of Kay will be played by Humberly González. A video introducing Kay and Humberly to fans was released by Ubisoft. Check it out below,

Ubisoft also released a gameplay walkthrough, which you can watch below,

Star Wars Outlaws will be released on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC in 2024.
