Star Wars Outlaws Launches on Nintendo Switch 2—But Not at Launch!

In thrilling news for gamers, Ubisoft has officially revealed that the much-anticipated Star Wars: Outlaws will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2, but there's a catch! Fans will have to wait until September 4 for its arrival, a few months after the new console debuts on June 5.

Dive into the Galaxy with Kay Vess!

If you haven't yet experienced the adventures of Star Wars: Outlaws on PS5, Xbox, or PC, it's set in the iconic Star Wars saga, nestled between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Players step into the shoes of Kay Vess, a small-time criminal now branded with a death mark by a ruthless cartel. With a mix of thrilling heists and cosmic exploration, the game promises an intergalactic experience like no other.

However, our reviewer noted it falls short in a few areas, giving it a score of 7 and highlighting the game's fun factor marred by simplistic stealth mechanics, repetitive combat, and bugs at launch.

Exciting Extensions and Sought-After Add-Ons!

During a recent panel at the Star Wars Celebration in Japan, Ubisoft also teased an upcoming story expansion for Outlaws titled 'A Pirate’s Fortune.' This new chapter will see Kay teaming up with the beloved Hondo Ohnaka to confront Stinger Tash, leader of the notorious Rokana Raiders. Gamers can expect this thrilling add-on to launch on May 15!

A New Hope for Switch 2 Gamers!

As American and Canadian gamers wait anxiously with pre-orders on hold—thanks to new tariffs imposed by the Republican administration—news about Switch 2’s game lineup is a beacon of excitement. Stay tuned as Star Wars: Outlaws and its new adventures prepare to light up gaming screens across the galaxy!
