Both are scheduled to launch on November 21, 2024 This was announced by the developers on the official account X, formerly Twitter. According to the announcement, the first story DLC, called Wild Card, will focus on the card game Sabaac.
Kay and Nix infiltrate a high-stakes Sabacc tournament where they face off against the legendary Lando Calrissian. In addition, new contracts will be added for free for all players.
The latter is supposed to be the content of a free update. There will also be two cosmetic bundles, Hunter’s Legacy and Cartel Ronin.
As for the Steam release, Ubisoft has not yet commented on a cross-progression feature. At the moment, it is not yet clear whether you can transfer saves from Ubisoft Connect to Steam and vice versa.
However, since it is currently possible to upload game saves to the Ubisoft cloud and transfer them to other platforms, it is likely that this will also be possible on Steam.
It was only recently announced that Star Wars Outlaws’ sales figures were well below Ubisoft’s expectations.
In response, the development teams are currently working hard to incorporate a series of updates in a timely manner, according to an internal announcement from Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot. The aim is to get more players interested in the title during Black Friday and the Christmas season.
