As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I must say that this latest update for Star Wars Outlaws has truly caught my attention. The improved audio for collisions and cinematics, particularly fixing the blurred images issue, is a welcome change, making the game even more immersive. The camera improvements, especially when interacting with vendors or on the speeder, are much appreciated as well.
The third update for Massive Entertainment’s game “Star Wars Outlaws” has just been released. This update includes various repairs and enhancements aimed at improving the user experience, such as adjustments to missions like “False Flag” and their stealth handling, as well as increasing the number of automatic save points in Imperial Strongholds and Faction Territories.
With fewer accidents caused by colliding with surroundings and NPCs on speeders now being more careful around you, the Speeder offers improved handling. Enemy NPC behavior during combat has been enhanced, and a significant update is that the Wanted level adjusts according to your game progression. Additionally, there have been improvements in stability, frame rate, and bug fixes to prevent crashes.
Take a look at the update’s notes provided below for more information, or click here for the complete details. Star Wars Outlaws is now playable on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. You can find our review of it right here. Unfortunately, sales have been lower than anticipated by Ubisoft, with approximately one million copies reportedly sold across all platforms up to September 30th.
Despite this, Massive is also working on additional updates, preparing for a Steam release, and planning to unveil the first story DLC, titled “Wild Card,” on November 21st.
