When I logged into YouTube this morning a new video from one of my favorite channels, ScreenCrush, came across the suggestions. “Why STAR WARS OUTLAWS is so CRUCIAL to the Saga – Star Wars Lore Explained” is a video by Colton Ogburn that reviews the importance of the Star Wars Outlaws game both to the Star Wars saga and possibly to us, the viewers and fans for the Star Wars franchise. At just 16 minutes in length, this is a good watch for any Star Wars fan, but it DOES include spoilers for the storyline of Star Wars Outlaws, so click at your own risk.
Released in August and produced by Ubisoft, here is the developer’s description of Star Wars Outlaws:
Experience the first-ever open world Star Wars™ game, set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Explore distinct locations across the galaxy, both iconic and new. Risk it all as Kay Vess, a scoundrel seeking freedom and the means to start a new life, along with her companion Nix. Fight, steal, and outwit your way through the galaxy’s crime syndicates as you join the galaxy’s most wanted.
The game’s storyline takes players to the planets of Akiva, Cantonica (home of Canto Bight), Kijimi, Tatooine and Toshiba.
