Star Wars Outlaws – Myrra, Imperial Compound Infiltration, and More Detailed in New Gameplay

As a seasoned gamer with decades of Star Wars universe immersion under my belt, I must say that the latest revelations about Star Wars Outlaws have me more than a little excited! The rich lore and dynamic world-building of Akiva, a location previously only graced by the pages of the Aftermath books, is just the kind of fresh perspective this galaxy far, far away needs.


After the unveiling of the official launch trailer for “Star Wars Outlaws”, Massive’s creative director, Julian Gerighty, recently delved deeper into the gameplay during the Xbox @ Gamescom 2024 livestream. The action unfolds on Akiva, a location previously exclusive to the Aftermath books, where players are tasked with a quest to locate the elusive Droidsmith.

Before diving into the heart of Akiva’s city, Myrra, I was briefed about its intricate political landscape – a battleground where the Pykes, Hutts, and even the Empire clash. Stepping into the neighborhood cantina, I boosted my Blaster’s rate of fire with an upgrade, then hopped onto my Speeder to explore this complex web of power struggles.

As players delve into Akiva, they may stumble upon instances such as an Imperial spacecraft descending (which you can decide to interfere with instantly or postpone until later). Upon reaching the designated mission spot, you’ll uncover a colossal Imperial base where he’s detained. There are numerous strategies for infiltration, but charging in with guns ablaze isn’t suggested, given that AT-ST walkers are on guard duty at the entrance.

Following a stealthy infiltration, Kay uncovers her history with the Droidsmith, who isn’t particularly pleased by her presence. Subsequently, she finds herself fleeing the scene, taking down Stormtroopers and triggering an Adrenaline Shot for swift eliminations. It’s worth noting that you can revisit this location at a later time to collect hidden riches, but more specifics are yet to be revealed.

The game titled “Star Wars Outlaws” is set to debut on August 30th, available on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. For additional information about Kay’s associates, Kay’s companions Nyx and ND-5, please follow this link.
