One Massive Entertainment game started the Ubisoft Forward event, another ended it. Of course, we are talking about the open world event revealed yesterday. Star Wars Outlaws, which we learned about thanks to the first trailer. Now we also have the first gameplay footage to prove it. even if a novelty from a galaxy far, far away is signed by the studio behind the The Division series, it is not necessarily a clone of The Division in a Star Wars setting..
Source: LucasfilmIn Star Wars Outlaws, we also visit a planet from the sequels.
Of course, for example, during the initial playthrough at the Pyke Syndicate base, you can see certain similarities in stealth, silent attacks and classic gunfights. But we were more interested in the amazing sound of the machine or what the basic blaster pistol that protagonist Kay Vess has at his disposal is equipped with various mods for ranged combat or against enemies with a shield. Obviously, a companion animal can come in handy too. Nyx, who can lend a helping hand with sneaking and shooting.. This is if directed correctly.
While the demo may give the impression at first that this is a fairly linear game, a brief demonstration of Swooper chasing the surface of Toshara’s moon makes it clear that this is an open-world game.. And that creators can draw inspiration from the best open-world games, as evidenced by the ability to slow down time during a chase, target enemies, and then just watch them fall to the ground. This is similar to what was cut from, for example, Red Dead Redemption 2.
In general, Toshara has a rather western atmosphere, as evidenced by Jaunta’s Hope station. Apparently, there will be no shortage of dirty corners in Star Wars Outlaws, in which you will also have to trade with corrupt imperial female officers for trade. Although it may not be necessary. It looks like the creators from Massive Entertainment have equipped their new product with a basic reputation system, as well as dialogue options., which can affect the action in the game. So if you screw up with an officer, she can raise the alarm and send local imperial forces against you.
It also seems that if the developers didn’t equip the game with something, it’s loading screens. Even flying through Toshara’s atmosphere on the Trailblazer doesn’t load anything, although somewhere in the background, between the clouds, everything must load somehow. However, a brief visit to Toshara’s cluttered orbit suggests that space battles will be quite traditional and will not differ much, say, from flights in Star Wars: Battlefront 2.
So your ship has several options, including hyperdrive, and each TIE fighter or other enemy ship is followed or preceded by a small circle worth aiming for. If you aim well, you can easily jump into hyperspace, after which you can escort Companion droid ND-5, who is a BX droid wearing the coat we saw in the trailer, and a seriously cute Nyx to go to the planet Akiva, for example. Also, does Nyx remind you a bit of the BD-1 droid from the Star Wars Jedi series in his demeanor, cuteness, and helpfulness?
Either way, Kay and Nyx are really connected. This is exactly what the developers claim in a special video from the shooting, in which we were told that the main character and her animal companion are connected not only in the gameplay, but also in the plot. In addition to well-known crime syndicates such as the Pikes and the Hutts, it will also offer a brand new organization called Clan Ashiga. Some of these organizations will probably put a reward on Kay’s head, but still the main character is played by an actress. Humberley Gonzalez the underground world pleases. Though she’s not always good at all these atrocities and eventually has to figure out how far she can go to pull off a dream heist that offers a path to freedom and a new life.
During the development of Star Wars Outlaws, people from Lucasfilm and the Lucasfilm Games division also contributed., which helped the creators find their way to certain elements or characters they wouldn’t otherwise encounter. This is indicated by various details that can be seen in the new gameplay footage, such as the wreckage of a yellow TIE fighter with cut wings that has already appeared in the animated series. Star Wars Rebels as a sign of a not exactly friendly mining guild.
The cast also had a lot to do with it. According to the creators, the image of Kay was formed by Humberly Gonzalez herself., thanks to humor or energy. Therefore, all those involved believe that she is destined for the role of Kay Vess. So hopefully the final game will confirm that. Perhaps the news that happens during this year’s San Diego Comic-Con will provide a clue.
