Star Wars Outlaws is an open-world Star Wars action-adventure from Massive Entertainment set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. You play Kay Vess, a scoundrel and aspiring thief, alongside her companion creature Nix, pulling off a galaxy-spanning heist while navigating the dangerous politics of the criminal syndicates.
The game blends third-person blaster combat, stealth, speeder-bike traversal across open planets, space dogfighting, and minigames like sabacc. Its signature system is Reputation: every syndicate — Pyke, Hutt, Crimson Dawn, Ashiga — tracks how they feel about Kay, and your choices and missions raise standing with one faction while souring another, opening or closing opportunities and vendors.
Outlaws nails the lived-in scoundrel fantasy and the Star Wars aesthetic — cantinas, bustling settlements, and authentic worlds. It launched with rough stealth design and some jank that patches have improved, but as a freewheeling Star Wars adventure built around being a charming criminal, it scratches an itch no other game does.
Four criminal syndicates track your standing. Missions and choices raise one faction while angering another, reshaping opportunities.
Explore open-world planets by speeder bike and dogfight in space aboard the Trailblazer, seamlessly traveling between worlds.
Kay's creature companion Nix assists you in stealth and combat.
Sabacc card games, lockpicking, slicing, and heists deliver the authentic Star Wars underworld fantasy.
