Summary Star Wars Outlaws looks to be one of the most ambitious titles in the IP’s history, marking the first truly open-world title. Set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, the upcoming game will explore the Outer Rim through the eyes of thief Kay Vess. It will mix existing locales, characters, and lore with new creations, expanding on a rarely-explored part of the universe’s timeline.
Navid Khavari: I think that goes back to right at the start, where we knew that we wanted to do a scoundrel fantasy, right? We wanted players to experience that. When we met with Lucasfilm Games, they told us, "It just so happens there's this perfect sliver of time, there's a year between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi where this could fit, where the Rebellion is on the run. The Empire is as strong as it's ever been, and the underworld is starting to thrive.
Navid Khavari: The game is filled with Easter eggs. I can promise you the team has done their homework. Shadow of the Empire is one of my favorite Star Wars games of all time, but I think we'll have to leave it for players to discover very soon, on August 30th. Mathias Karlson: It's really at the heart of the experience, in the background, always looming is the Empire. This is the height of their power in many ways, and if you break their rules, you'll feel it - trust me. But navigating the different syndicates, it's really your journey. We're not going to tell you when to be on the good or bad side with each one of them.
From there everything kind of flowed organically. Suddenly, while all this stuff is happening around her, she brings a different sort of unique perspective and goal. I think, like you said, that sort of morally gray area was so fun to play with, and especially the fact that this is someone who finds herself unexpectedly with a bounty on her back, and she's embarking on this heist across the Outer Rim.
