Even a physical copy of Star Wars Outlaws will require an internet connection to install the game

On 9 April, Ubisoft presented a story trailer for Star Wars Outlaws. After that, the company opened pre-orders for the game, which revealed one "surprise".

Here's What We Know

If you don't have the best Internet connection and were planning to buy a disc to download the game faster (because it will obviously weigh a lot), we have bad news for you. The game will require an internet connection to download from the disc. So you still have time to improve your speed or just suck it up and wait a couple of hours for everything to load.

The Standard Edition costs $70, while the Gold Edition costs $110. And for the Ultimate Edition, you'll have to pay $130.

When We Can Expect It

Star Wars Outlaws will be released on 30 August 2024 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series.

Flashback

Star Wars Outlaws is an open-world game that takes place between the fifth and sixth episodes of the films. The game is developed by the authors of The Division (Massive Entertainment), and Ubisoft will publish the project. The story is not about a Jedi, but focuses on Kay Wess, an ordinary girl who constantly wants to get into a situation and emerge victorious. Her main goal is a large-scale robbery, after which she will be able to feel what a normal life is. She will be travelling with her cute animal Nix and the BX-commando droid.

Players will be able to visit both long-familiar and new places in the Far Galaxy on their own speeder. The game will have stealth mechanics, but if something goes wrong, you can always use a blaster and destroy all enemies. The developers also promise a system of choice that will affect the reputation of Kay.
