Complementing that is a dedication toStar Warsauthenticity in everything from aesthetics and styles, to audio and overall ambience.

On-planet travel on a speeder is a little less exciting, particularly after a while, however.

One of the clearest demonstrations of this is in her relationship with Nix, her animal companion.

Living out aStar Warsscoundrel fantasy as a normal person in the sci-fi universe is one ofOutlaw’s greatest strengths.

In practical software, however, Nix accentuates and complements Kays scoundrel and thief-like action in-game.

This scoundrel roleplay you might engage Kay in is perhaps the greatest strength of the game, too.

Wheres the standalone version, Ubisoft?

Theyre very deliberate configs that make for great self-contained adventures, such as the rusting remains of huge ships.

Perfecting infiltrations as such a comparatively underpowered character is incredibly satisfying.

However, such missions also house some of my biggest frustrations with the game.

There area lotof ladders.

It certainly doesnt help that traversal feels very plain.

As a result, skills feel trulyearned.

Another brilliant skill is Kays slick adrenaline ability that enables her to tag and dead-eye blast enemies.

Hand-to-hand combat is okay on the whole, with each punch delivering a decent level of impact.

There are four crime syndicates, with at least two inhabiting each world vying for power and influence.

Weve attached images of all of them below to give you an insight into whats on offer.

Should I play Star Wars Outlaws?

If working like a rogue is of interest to you, then this is going to be a winner.

If youre all about lightsabers and slicing down imperial guards, then you should try theStar Wars Jediseries instead.

I found the performance mode better for play and quality making the worlds look even more beautiful.
