Ubisoft has dropped a bombastic new trailer for its open-world Star Wars game and it could well feature the best original Star Wars story sinceThe MandalorianonDisney+.
Star Wars Outlawswill arrive on 30 August 2024, forXbox Series X/S,PS5, PC andAmazonLuna, and looks like it’ll tell a fairly swashbuckling tale set between the events ofThe Empire Strikes BackandReturn of the Jedi.
That timeline is made clear in the trailer thanks to a couple of very recognisable character cameos – Han Solo appears at one point, frozen in carbonite in Jabba the Hutt’s palace, with the big sluggy slimeball also showing up later.
Jabba being a character that we’ll dice with makes a lot of sense since he’s a boss of the criminal underworld, and we’ll be playing as a small-time hustler trying to make it big.
A new Star Wars Outlaws trailer
The trailer shows off plenty more besides, including setting up what looks like a new criminal syndicate that we’ll be either working under or around at various points.
The game is set to take us to a range of locations, too, with various planets glimpsed in the trailer including the inescapable pull of Tatooine, which has a canny knack of appearing in almost every bit of Star Wars media.

Because this is a Ubisoft game, you can also expect some classic exploration featuring (almost certainly) towers to reveal sections of the map.
We also know that you’ll have at least one way around each planet more quickly - Vess has a nifty-looking speeder bike to go with her ship.
Star Wars Outlaws pricing revealed
Ubisoft also confirmed both the pricing of the game (£70 or $70, as you’d expect) and the fact that it will get two DLCs after its launch, without a timeline being set for those yet.
