Star Wars Outlaws Gets Confirmed Release Date for Nintendo Switch 2 – Here’s When!

In late 2024, the game “Star Wars Outlaws” received a mix of positive and negative reviews on various platforms, except for Nintendo Switch. Regrettably, Nintendo fans who were eager to explore the open-world Star Wars game in their favorite console had to wait. However, during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct presentation, we were reassured that “Star Wars Outlaws” would eventually be available on the Switch 2. Ubisoft has now officially announced the release date for “Star Wars Outlaws” on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 console. While it won’t be accessible at launch, fans can anticipate playing this Star Wars game on their Switch 2 later in the year.

On September 4th, the next-gen Nintendo Switch 2 edition of “Star Wars Outlaws” is set to launch. Keep in mind that the Switch 2 console itself won’t hit stores until June 5th. This provides an opportunity for those who didn’t preorder to secure their new gaming device before the game arrives. Additionally, @StarWarsOutlaws has shared a sneak peek at the game running on the Switch 2, and it appears quite impressive indeed!

Checking out the gameplay footage of “Star Wars Outlaws” running on Switch 2 offers a glimpse into what next-gen games might look like on the new console. While you may not be intending to purchase the game, it’s still worth taking a peek. Fingers crossed that this marks the beginning of numerous opportunities for top-tier current-generation games to debut on Nintendo consoles for the very first time!

The details about the second edition of Star Wars Outlaws on Switch were unveiled alongside several other updates for the Star Wars franchise, during the Star Wars Celebration in Japan. Yesterday, we found out that A Pirate’s Fortune, the upcoming DLC for Star Wars Outlaws, will be released next month.

Ubisoft Unveils Free Demo of Star Wars Outlaws Ahead of Switch 2 Launch

Alongside revealing the release date for its Switch 2 and upcoming DLC, the game Star Wars Outlaws is gaining interest among new players in an unexpected manner. Ubisoft has also disclosed a free trial version of this open-world title set amidst the stars. It’s unusual because free trials usually debut alongside or before a new game, not several months into its lifespan. In any event, gamers eager to explore Star Wars Outlaws can now test it out before making a purchase. However, the free demo for Switch 2 has yet to be confirmed.

The free demo for the game “Star Wars Outlaws” can now be found on Xbox, Steam, Epic Games, and PS5. Essentially, any platform where the game is currently offered will include the demo as well. As indicated in the game’s listing on Xbox, the demo offers up to 3 hours of gameplay. Although this doesn’t encompass all that “Star Wars Outlaws” has to offer, it should provide gamers with enough time to determine if they find the game enjoyable enough to purchase it.

Currently, Ubisoft hasn’t set a deadline for when the free demo of “Star Wars Outlaws” will no longer be available. This could mean that it’s here to stay, giving fans a chance to try out the game before deciding to purchase it at its full price of $70.
