Star Wars Outlaws Story Details
In a recent interview, Navid Khavari, the person in charge of the story in the Star Wars Outlaws game, spilled the beans on some exciting details. He mentioned that the game’s story unfolds after the Battle of Hoth when The Empire controls the galaxy. Khavari worked closely with Lucasfilm to figure out the game’s setting, and they decided to place it between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
Now, as for what happens in the game, Khavari explained that the rebels are facing a tough situation. While there’s a lot of chaos and unrest, it creates a perfect opportunity for the underworld to rise and gain power without the Empire noticing.
So, it’s a tricky time for the rebels, and the game promises some interesting twists and turns in the Star Wars universe.
Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay Details
Khavari shared that Jabba the Hutt will be a quest giver in Star Wars Outlaws. Players can choose to work for him as a loyal foot soldier or go their own way. Khavari is excited about finding more connections to the larger Star Wars universe, hinting at the possibility of encountering other familiar characters in the game.
Players can do quests with different groups called syndicates to control how others see the main character, Kay Vess in Star Wars Outlaws. This affects the tasks the groups give and how they influence the story. Each player will have a unique standing with each group based on how they’ve dealt with them during the game.
Kay Vess really enjoys making these rival groups fight each other. You can do tasks for characters like Jabba the Hutt in the game. The big question is, will you be a loyal follower of Jabba or betray him for some credit? Khavari suggests that there will be more familiar characters in the game, besides Jabba. He’s excited for players to explore and find connections to the larger Star Wars universe on their own.
Furthermore, Kay also has a spaceship called The Trailblazer that can travel really fast into hyperspace. And it seems the game is getting a bunch of cool stuff added to it. There are lots of exciting features, and the story can change based on which faction or underworld gang you choose to be a part of.
