Star Wars Outlaws Underperformed, Ubisoft Confirms - September 2024

As a longtime Star Wars enthusiast and avid gamer, I must admit I was quite excited for the release of Star Wars Outlaws. However, upon hearing that it underperformed internal expectations, my heart sank a little. I remember eagerly awaiting the release date, imagining countless hours lost in an immersive Star Wars universe.

According to an announcement made this week, Ubisoft admitted that Star Wars Outlaws did not meet their predicted performance levels internally.

During a statement and following discussion, Ubisoft admitted that the game’s launch performance was weaker than anticipated, even though they described the reviews as positive.

Furthermore, although it received strong ratings (Metacritic 76) and scores of 3.9/5 from both the First Party and Epic stores, indicating an engaging and realistic Star Wars setting, the launch sales of Star Wars Outlaws were lower than anticipated, as stated by Ubisoft.

Based on input from players, Ubisoft’s development teams are actively working on a set of updates aimed at enhancing gameplay and overall user experience. These improvements are intended to captivate a broad audience during the holiday season, ultimately positioning Star Wars Outlaws for long-term success.
