Over a thousand fans of Star Wars Outlaws are banding together, asking Ubisoft to give the sequel another shot. The game, by Massive Entertainment, hit the shelves in 2024 and got some thumbs up from critics. An open world Star Wars game? Oh, fans have been dreaming about that for ages. But, well, it didn’t quite fly off the shelves like Ubisoft hoped. Weird how that happens, right?
So, newsflash – maybe it’s just a rumor, but folks are saying the sequel might be scrapped. Surprise, surprise? Not really. Still, a bunch of die-hard fans who loved Kay Vess’ escapades are signing a petition in the high hopes that Ubisoft changes its mind. It’s like, come on, give Kay another chance to roam the galaxy!
Now, check this out – more than a thousand signatures are scribbled on this petition, as I type. Those fans are arguing that Star Wars Outlaws has morphed, you know, with updates and DLC making it shine brighter. They’re begging for a sequel, saying there’s “real interest.” Ubisoft’s played it cool so far—no peep about the petition or those cancellation whispers.
And yeah, despite the warm reviews, Outlaws had its hiccups. Remember the stealth system complaints? But boom—the devs tackled that post-launch. It’s like, hey, maybe a sequel could leapfrog from the first game’s blunders and be something epic, like the leap from Assassin’s Creed to its sequel. Wouldn’t that be something?
Even if we never see an Outlaws sequel, the adventure’s not over. The game’s set to hit Nintendo Switch 2 soon, in September. Who knows, if sales there skyrocket, maybe that’s the nudge Ubisoft needs. Meanwhile, fans who are bummed about the sequel rumors have the petition to cling to, crossing fingers and hoping for a flip-flop from Ubisoft.
And as I wrap this up, it’s just another chapter in the galaxy of Star Wars games—we’ll see where it lands.
