To be fair Outlaws is precisely the kind of game I can see people paying $18 for a month of Ubisoft+ once and calling it a day.

Which gives ubisoft about as much money as they would've made off a physical copy sale, at least back when they were being sold for around 60 bucks.

Having played around with the game a bit the biggest problems are the combat and stealth both being complete trash as well as the rewards for completing quests being highly variable in value (sometimes you get a really useful enhancement for your weapon, other times you get a paintjob for your speeder). I'm indifferent to the protagonist in that I'm not a fan of her character model but the voice acting work is decent.

The actual worldbuilding and atmosphere (and level design in some of the main quest areas) are really good, and some of the parkour sequences are kind of fun in a Tomb Raider/Uncharted kind of way. If only they could make the core gameplay better it would be a decent game.

Star Wars Outlaws’ first expansion brings Lando into the game


[Emphasis added]

A few months after it first launched, Star Wars Outlaws is getting some major updates. First up is the game’s first batch of downloadable content, which adds a new storyline involving Lando Calrissian and what appears to be a very dangerous game of Sabacc. The new expansion is called Wild Card and will be followed by a second DLC update next spring called A Pirate’s Fortune.

Perhaps more significant, today, Outlaws is also getting a major update to address some of the game’s technical and design issues. Ubisoft describes it as the game’s “biggest patch yet.” Most notable, it seems, is that the stealth sections — a major point of frustration for many players — have been toned down.

Ubisoft says that the update includes “updates to stealth and combat that allow players greater choice, including using stealth or reaching for their blaster, even in syndicate territories in cities.” Similarly, there are “enemy AI and detection improvements, with players being notified when they’re being detected and can choose to escalate or change tactics to remain in stealth.”

Here’s how creative director Drew Rechner explains the changes:

Our first step in expanding player choice is removing forced stealth from almost all quest objectives. This doesn’t mean that sneaking is no longer a viable or even preferable option in some cases. Rather, if you’re caught while sneaking, the objective won’t fail and reset you to the last checkpoint. Instead, you’ll seamlessly transition into combat.

You can check out the full patch notes right here, and get an overview in the video below.



Also notable: while Outlaws has been on PC since launch, it was only available through the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Connect. Today, it’s out on Steam as well.

And it's doing fantastic!

For anyone even remotely interested in Outlaws the correct procedure with Ubisoft games is to just wait for Complete Edition a year later. If you want to give them your money.

They all end being released on the Playstation+ service too.
