Final Words: Outlaws is the best ubisoft game in quite some time and some of its elements are pretty impressive, if the narration was better and the game was more polished, it could have gotten a solid 9.

I love it so far, feels much like a good mix between Assassins creed and Far Cry gameplay with a good looking open World. But if U dont like Stealth, its not for u, those blasters Hurt!🤣

This is a solid and fun Star Wars adventure. If you want a bit of that mixed in with Uncharted and Assassin's Creed then you can do much worse.

Don't understand the wild hate for this one.

Star Wars Outlaws, is both not a good game and not a bad game. It succeeds by moving away from the standard 'Ubisoft template' refreshing the UI and replacing older progression systems. However, it falls short due to the lack of original content and variety that is offered to the player.

The exploration is fun in linear areas but the actual planets feel completely empty, with nothing to do. Your an Outlaw, but you can't really do anything that an Outlaw does. I can't drive the speeder through a 'restricted area.' It is nostalgic to play at times, other times I was just fed up with another generic bland Ubisoft game.

During my playthrough, one of the things that annoyed me was the laziness, to actually show any proper tutorials. You're just left to it, everything on the map is just 'littered treasures' until you progress, it gets annoying.

This supposed Quadruple A game is a at a diabolical standard. I encountered way to many bugs that should not have even got past playtesting, quests not completing, broken camera angles, enemy AI being stupid, and Kay knocking out Storm Troopers with her bare fists.

Story isn't anything fantastic. I didn't like that it was only 19 main missions?? That's less than Spider - Man 2. Kay Vess is an interesting character. Not sure what Ubisoft were thinking with that hairstyle and her 'modernised' character design.

My frustration with Star Wars Outlaws begins with the claim that this was 'A Star Wars No Man's Sky' you'd expect it to be that when you see the price. But no, four planets with AC Unity and Syndicate sized maps. What a joke and complete lie.

The price that Ubisoft put this at for £70 or £120, is completely unacceptable. For the content this game offers is where I lose it with them. A Quadruple A title at a ridiculously poor standard, that can be completed in 20 hours and around 40 - 60 hours for everything???

Final Verdict: Star Wars Outlaws freshens up overused Ubisoft systems, adding new ways to progress and placing you in the Star Wars universe. But all the remaining mechanics are a lazy copy and paste from various Ubisoft titles. This game is just unacceptable, there isn't enough content for the price their asking, wait for a major sale, I do not recommend.

Formulaic, kinda boring but had some beautiful worlds and scenery and some cool Star Wars nostalgia.
