Story Highlight
  • Star Wars Outlaws has gone gold and is coming next month.
  • Recent previews of the game have received mixed feedback, leading to questions about a potential delay from Ubisoft.
  • The team has confirmed that it won’t be delaying the game any further.

Star Wars Outlaws has seen mixed reactions from fans so far. The game’s early previews have met with mixed reactions, with most critics expressing concerns over Ubisoft’s open-world formula.

IGN also released a video earlier this month, which has gathered more dislikes than likes for poor visual effects, low frame rates, and more. However, it appears that the developers are still confident about this release and have no plans to delay the title.

Why it matters: Ubisoft is one of the biggest publishers in the world, so fans always expect highly polished games from the team. It also has no budget constraints, so the lack of polish here is surprising.

The Ubisoft CFO further stated that the team will share more high-quality content soon to show the depth of the open world. He emphasized that this will be the highlight since Star Wars Outlaws is about exploring the galaxy’s many planets.

The studio is also confident about the graphics of the final product, stating that the quality of the final release will be quite high.

“We are really leveraging our engine, and I think people will love it.

While it remains to be seen how the title will perform at launch, Ubisoft is moving swiftly ahead. Massive Entertainment also seems quite happy with what it has achieved with the game so far.

It seems waiting and judging the game after release will be the best option now. Fans can also look forward to reviews arriving next month, giving them an even better idea of what to expect come release day.
