Mixed Reactions to 'Star Wars Outlaws' Ahead of Release

While the game promises an open-world Star Wars experience, critics express concerns over gameplay mechanics and protagonist capabilities.

Ubisoft Massive's 'Star Wars Outlaws' is the franchise's first open-world game, set between 'The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return of the Jedi'.
Critics have praised the game's authentic Star Wars aesthetic and lore integration.
Concerns have been raised about the protagonist, Kay Vess, being overly powerful, potentially diminishing gameplay challenge.
There are worries that the open-world elements may feel disjointed from the story-driven sections.
The game is set to launch on August 30 for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC.
