Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a refreshing take in terms of a Star Wars game. As much as I love using force powers and swinging around a lightsaber, exploring the underworld of Star Wars with nary a rare mention of Jedi and/or Sith besides *REDACTED SPOILER PLAY TO FIND OUT* was a great premise for this title. However, there were a few noticeable bumps that keep me from giving it the full rating. Pros: - For an open world game, the maps were right in the sweet spot in terms of size and how "alive" they felt. They didn't feel like wide swaths of just point A to point B eye candy or felt like they were filled of repetitive encounters. They also look gorgeous in 4k. - Both the speeder travel and starship/dogfight mechanics were fluid and made traversal of both planet and space fast paced. - Gunplay with your blaster is varied and a bevy of unlock options allow you to set how you want to shoot first. - The performances are great, Kay Vess and ND-5 in particular. - The criminal syndicates you work for have their own goals and aesthetics, which add color and vibrancy to the world. Add in the Rebels and Empire inbetween Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and you have a wide variety of characters to interact with. - Nix. Your little friend is a great companion. Never in your way nor does his AI distract from the gameplay experience, in fact, it often enhances it. Plus, LOOK AT HIM. You can hear Disney executives chuckling maniacally over how much money another cuddly sidekick is going to make them in plushies alone. - The fact that I can enjoy a large amount of this game without being hawked endless DLC with additional cost, IN A UBISOFT GAME. 50/50 - The story, neither a pro nor a con, mainly because it feels clunky at times, but ultimately not a huge detractor from the overall experience. Cons - The facial animations out of cutscenes range from very good to "ok their mouth flaps don't even match" - The syndicates basically have the same fighting styles with different skins, which in hour 50 kinda makes gunfights ho-hum save a few different "heavy" enemies and the death troopers. - The syndicate missions also get very repetitive, and outside of the main story, expert missions, and intel side missions feel stale. Unless you need reputation or credits, they are easy to look over. - Even though it is not thrown in my face to purchase, Ubisoft still could not resist hiding a lot of content behind a $50 season pass. At least it isn't as flagrant or as tedious as what they have turned Assassin's Creed into, but we might have to thank Disney allowing them to make a Star Wars game for that. Overall, this is a great little game to pick up and play through to experience a galaxy far far away from outside the moral shakesperian epic of the light and dark side of the force. It is just fun to play a soundrel who is out for the next big score in a galaxy at war.

Amazing open world game. It does have some minor bug but overall fun and different if you’re tired of light saber battles and want a shoot out.

A lot of patches has happened since the original release of the game its in a solid space now that has drastically improved the experience. Maybe not ground breaking but a entertaining to the very least.

Fun Star Wars open world game. Decent story, Runs well on ps5

I just picked up Star Wars Outlaws for my PS5 and I’m really impressed so far! As a longtime Star Wars fan, I love how the game captures the gritty, outlaw side of the galaxy. The characters are fresh, the open-world exploration is exciting, and the visuals are stunning on PS5. It really feels like you’re in the universe, but from a different perspective—not your usual Jedi vs. Sith storyline, which I actually found refreshing.

I was surprised that I am enjoying this game way more than I thought. Give this a chance. I know Ubisoft does some dumb things but this game is fun. It runs well after all the work they put into it after a disappointing launch. It still has some open world jank to it but most large open worlds do. And I’m not getting that Ubisoft fatigue from pointless side quest to pad the game play time. Another big factor is buying this for 20$ over Black Friday sales was well worth it.

Star Wars Outlaws offers a fresh take on the Star Wars universe by focusing on life outside the Jedi and Sith. Set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, the game follows Kay Vess as she navigates the galaxy’s criminal underworld. The open-world planets feel alive and rewarding to explore, and the environments capture the gritty Star Wars atmosphere perfectly. Gameplay mixes blaster combat, stealth, and gadgets, giving players multiple ways to approach missions. The reputation system with different factions adds depth, making choices feel meaningful. While the game has a few technical issues and familiar open-world elements, its strong storytelling and immersive world make it a standout Star Wars experience.

I love this game. Great graphics as well as a nice story line. I got this for my boyfriend as an anniversary gift and I have enjoyed playing it myself. Even my daughter enjoys the game.

I have to fight my teenage son to get a turn to play! Beautiful open-world experience in the Star Wars galaxy. Runs smoothly on the PS5. Captivating main story with lots to do on side quests. Cute pet-friend too!

Now that there have been some patches and systems overhauls, this game is honestly super solid, somewhere around a firm 8/10. The music, graphical quality, and gameplay elements are fun and bear some diversity, and it does an EXCELLENT job of capturing the spirit and aesthetic of Star Wars, as well as 80s sci fi sensibilities in general. It feels good to play and feels GOOD while playing it, if that makes sense. If you can nab this for $40 or less, then even better. Very recommended

This game has been amazing. The graphics, the environments, the abilities system, and the missions are all great. Getting a chance to explore the star wars galaxy in an open world game is amazing, flying through space, exploring caves on tatooine, and sneaking through imperial bases and space stations is incredible. As a star wars fan I am beyond pleased with this game and having a blast exploring more of the star wars galaxy in it!

If you are a Star Wars fan, this game is for you. The story is fun and the graphics are good. The gameplay is repetitive and too much sneaking around but other than that, it’s a good time checking out the SW universe.

I had heard some negative reviews about this game before I bought it, but I thought I would give it a try since it was on sale. I like the game. The storytelling, the gameplay, the types of tasks are all pretty good. I miss not having a light saber, but the tasks while go back to the same places are not necessarily repeats of the same actions every time. Flying is fun the speeder handles smoothly, and the worlds are big enough to enjoy traveling around on.

I played this nonstop. Kept my attention. Great story but did glitch out a few times and shut off.

Great stealth game with star wars theme. You can easily lose track of time while playing.

This is a solid open world game with a fun mix of stealth and shooting and multiple ways to reach your goal without being punished too bad for getting caught and blasting your way out.

A very entertaining game. The graphics are pretty good and so is the story. I am not a big fan of the stealth section and also wish you could have created your own character. Overall a solid game for Star Wars fans.

Despite some shortcomings, the game is good and fun. Don't believe the grifting hate! Enjoy yourself to a nice fun little game in a galaxy far away!

It has its moments but overall pretty fun game to play

Underrated game. I don’t know why it got hated on at launch. Sadly a lot of people jump on a bandwagon and think it’s cool and trendy to hate on things. Regardless, if you’re in the mood for a single player story driven open world adventure, this is definitely right up your alley! Give it a try!
