Review: Play a part in the wretched side of scum and villainy with Star Wars Outlaws – Entertainium

EA’s decade-long Star War exclusivity deal came to an end last year, leaving the ever-popular IP open to new takers. Ubisoft is among the first to get their hands on the massive sci-fi property and their mark on the franchise comes in the form of Star Wars Outlaws. Unlike virtually every other Star Wars video game, this one doesn’t put another Jedi in the spotlight. It’s easy to lean into the flashy fantasy of lightsabers and Force powers, especially within the confines of this form of interactive media. Instead, Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment studio has opted for a scoundrel roleplay experience, diving deep into the seediest parts of the Han Solo lifestyle. – IS
