Title Update 1.4 and Wild Card are both live today.
Star Wars Outlaws has introduced two big updates today, both free and paid. The free update fixes a lot of issues we had with the game in our review, while Wild Card is a paid expansion featuring Lando Calrissian.
“In Star Wars Outlaws Wild Card, Kay is hired to infiltrate a high-stakes Sabacc tournament. As she crosses paths with the notorious high roller Lando Calrissian, she soon learns that another game is being played,” Ubisoft said of the paid content. “Players must complete the Gunsmith and The High Roller quest from the base game before the story pack can be played.”
Perhaps more importantly, the free Title Update 1.4 brings what Ubisoft calls “a range of improvements”, including:
- Notable updates to stealth and combat that allow players greater choice in how they approach each quest including using stealth or reaching for their blaster, even in syndicate territories in cities.
- Enemy AI and detection improvements, with players being notified when they’re being detected and can choose to escalate or change tactics to remain in stealth. Enemies will also now be more tactical as they use cover and seek better combat lines.
- Enemy weak points have been added to reward strategic gameplay, which if targeted can trigger explosions or give players a way to defeat enemies in spectacular new ways.
- Re-tuned Kay’s blaster and pickup weapons to improve the combat experience, including being able to carry two handed weapons in more situations including using ladders or grapple points.
- Animations in dialogue scenes, the option to toggle off the cinematic lens, the visibility of distant lights and much more have been added to improve the experience across the galaxy.
Both free and paid updates went live from 5.00 am AEDT this morning.
Star Wars Outlaws is available on Windows PC via Ubisoft Connect, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
