UBISOFT’s upcoming Star Wars adventure gives you an entirely different sense of scale for the galaxy far far away. Unlike the mainline Star Wars films, with its powerful Jedi and heroes who get to change the fortunes of the universe, Outlaws puts you in the shoes of ordinary people.

I played Star Wars Outlaws for four hours – and it brings human scale to its massive galaxy

WITH so many Star Wars video games through the years, it’s astonishing that no title can be called a real open world. We’ve played through great stories but they have always been more or less limited by linear levels, loading screens, or other restrictions on where you can go and when. Touted as the first […]

I played Star Wars Outlaws and it’s an immersive open world every Star Wars fan should explore

Kay Vess isn't a Jedi or soldier in the world of Star Wars Outlaws. Like Han Solo, she's a scoundrel who gets by more on street smarts and a healthy dose of luck than anything else. That means stealth and thievery will be a much bigger aspect to her adventures, and what self-respecting thief can't pick a lock? Even though Star Wars is technically in the past, these futuristic locks aren't cracked in the usual way, even for video games. Here's how lockpicking works in Star Wars Outlaws.

It’s not just the sequel trilogy that’s being erased — now another divisive Disney-era Star Wars entry is being wiped from canon!. Who could have ever imagined anything giving Star Wars: Episode VIII — The Last Jedi (2017) a run for its money? Granted, Star Wars: Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker (2019) was a stinker in equal measure, doing nothing more than serving as a cheap form of damage-control over its franchise-destroying predecessor, and none of the live-action television shows beyond The Mandalorian Season 2 have exactly lived up to expectations, but no one could have predicted that Disney+ was just as capable of leaving the fanbase in tatters.

‘Star Wars’ Officially Removes ‘The Acolyte’ From Canon After Season 2 Is Canceled

Almost five decades later, Disney will reinstate an element of Star Wars that George Lucas himself removed. The Star Wars franchise, created by George Lucas, began in 1977 with the release of the original Star Wars film, later retitled Star Wars–Episode IV: A New Hope. This groundbreaking space opera introduced audiences to a galaxy far, far away, featuring iconic characters like Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), Han Solo (Harrison Ford), and Darth Vader (James Earl Jones/David Prowse).

Star Wars is a rich space opera full of unique planets, galactic intrigue, and mysterious forces. But despite having more than 10 movies and multiple TV shows dedicated to this world, we don’t know much about how the ordinary citizen of the Star Wars universe lives. There may be a lot of worldbuilding, but it’s always in the extremes.

It's been four years since the charismatic and rugged actor Robert Conrad died at 84. Best known for feature films like Palm Springs Weekend, and the trio of hit TV shows, Hawaiian Eye, Wild Wild West, and Black Sheep Squadron (a.k.a., Baa Baa Black Sheep), Robert Conrad was one tough cookie. This is his story.

Star Wars Outlaws: the ambitious Ubisoft game that will showcase the first-ever open world set in the Star Wars universe, will release Friday

Star Wars Outlaws: The good and the bad about the first open-world Star Wars game

ComingSoon

Let’s get this out of the way: Star Wars Outlaws has the impossible task of exceeding decades’ worth of expectations. It’s the first single-player open-world Star Wars game delivered to an audience who have imagined themselves in that universe since the ’70s. That audience is also deeply conflicted over what Star Wars should be, as we’ve seen from the vitriolic response to every new release from the franchise since the prequels. Outlaws will not — and was never going to — win everyone over. So instead of creating Fan Service: The Video Game to appease the masses, developer Massive Entertainment has opted to tell its own story in a planet-hopping adventure that embeds the player within the Star Wars universe.

"Baby why you gotta be so mean?" The zodiac is a fascinating system that many people turn to for insights into personality traits, behaviors, and compatibility. While every zodiac sign has its unique strengths and challenges, some signs are often perceived as being a bit more sharp-edged, vindictive or difficult (to say the least) to deal with. In this article, we'll delve into the four zodiac signs commonly considered the "meanest," exploring the characteristics that contribute to this perception and how these traits manifest in their interactions with others. To lighten the mood, we'll include some funny quotes about each sign's mean streak.

The 4 Meanest Signs in the Zodiac

As a long-time Star Wars fan, I can admit that being part of this fan base is a double-edged lightsaber. If you say something nice about Star Wars, people will hate you. People will hate you equally if you say something bad—there’s no middle ground. Naturally, when Ubisoft unveiled Star Wars Outlaws, this became more evident. On one side, you had fans excited for a proper open-world Star Wars adventure. Conversely, you had doomsayers praying for this game to flop. Let me put your minds at ease. In the words of one iconic senator (kind of): “This is how skepticism dies, with thunderous applause.” In other words, you may rest easy because Outlaws is one of the best Star Wars games ever.

Fresh off the show’s cancellation, Disney has allegedly scrubbed all traces of The Acolyte. Much like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Wars has faced a bit of an issue lately: quantity over quality. While the franchise may not produce anywhere near as much content as the MCU (it’s been absent from theaters for five years for a start), it has gone all-in on Disney+ since the streaming service launched in 2019, to varying degrees of success.

This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.
