Star Wars Outlaws underperformed, but why did the outwardly similar Hogwarts Legacy succeed so well – and yet Ubisoft's game stumbled?
One was the biggest hit of 2023 and the other was… a game that came out in 2024 With a new patch for Star Wars Outlaws drastically altering a major gameplay element, GameCentral ponders how things ended up going so wrong and what it could mean for future Star Wars games. Calling Star Wars Outlaws a failure isn’t quite fair.
The blasters and other weapons in Star Wars seem to have real weight and power in the movies and yet even in a first person shooter like Battlefront they come across as weedy and insubstantial. Lightsabers have generally fared better but it’s really on with EA’s Star Wars Jedi series that they’ve begun to feel like an accurate representation of the films. Most Star Wars games just don’t give fans what they want, either at a top level or in terms of the details.
