Star Wars Outlaws Releases New Update

Key Takeaways

  • Hotfix v1.1.1 for Star Wars Outlaws on PC improves VRAM and overall stability.
  • More updates are in the works for the open world Star Wars games.

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the gaming industry has come a long way, but it still faces its fair share of challenges. The latest update for Star Wars Outlaws on PC is a testament to this fact. While it’s commendable that Ubisoft is addressing issues such as VRAM usage and overall stability, I can’t help but feel a tinge of frustration when yet another game, especially one as promising as Outlaws, seems to launch with more bugs than a swarm of space mosquitoes.


The latest update for “Star Wars Outlaws” on your computer is now available! This is the initial significant hotfix labeled v1.1.1, which has been released specifically for the PC version of the game. It’s been since the official launch of “Star Wars Outlaws” on August 30 that this hotfix has been made available.

“Star Wars Outlaws” is an open-world game produced by Ubisoft’s Massive Games that allows players to experience life as a smuggler amidst the Galactic Civil War. This game, set in the time of the original Star Wars trilogy, aims to enrich the universe with a storyline that aligns with the canon and includes appearances from famous characters such as Jabba the Hutt and Lando Calrissian.

As a passionate gamer, I’ve just learned that the Star Wars Outlaws team is rolling out hotfix v1.1.1 for the PC version of the game. According to their latest tweet, this update aims to enhance VRAM usage and overall performance and stability. However, they didn’t specify exactly which bugs or issues this patch is targeting. Some players have reported that performance problems still persist after updating, which is a bit disappointing. I hope the team addresses these concerns swiftly!

Ubisoft Announces Star Wars Outlaws Hotfix v1.1.1 for PC

Besides graphic errors, software malfunctions, and performance and frame rate problems, Ubisoft faced criticism when players who got early access to Star Wars Outlaws on PS5 due to a Gold Edition pre-order bonus found their save files inoperable after an update. It’s worth noting that the console version also has its fair share of problems, but many of its significant technical issues seem to originate from the PC version, which opted for Ubisoft Connect over a Steam release.

In spite of ongoing debates about the high cost of special editions and paywalled content in the game “Star Wars Outlaws”, it has garnered mostly positive critical acclaim. Many critics praise its expansive and interactive open world as a key factor that attracts players. Some have likened it to “Red Dead Redemption” in terms of open-world exploration, while others find similarities with Ubisoft’s “Assassin’s Creed” series, particularly in regards to character development.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve been navigating some rough waters with the rocky start of Star Wars Outlaws and the decreasing player base in Ubisoft’s newest competitive shooter, XDefiant. Despite these challenges, Ubisoft has shown its resilience, working tirelessly to enhance the game and promising more updates in the future. On a brighter note, gamers like me have lots to anticipate as the game is slated to get several DLC expansions soon. And guess what? Ubisoft is gearing up for another massive launch with the imminent release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows in November!
