Star Wars Outlaws Update: Gameplay Improvements and Season 2 Prep

Ubisoft has implemented a series of significant updates for Star Wars Outlaws, focusing on gameplay improvements, bug fixes and expanding the game’s availability to new hardware. These developments follow a period of player feedback regarding the game’s initial state and technical performance.

A primary focus of recent development has been the deployment of Title Update 1.7, which was released on June 24, 2025. This update primarily addressed quality-of-life changes and bug fixes to refine the overall player experience.

Nintendo Switch 2 Integration and Optimization

One of the most notable technical expansions for Star Wars Outlaws is its release on the Nintendo Switch 2. Ubisoft provided a dedicated FAQ regarding the Switch 2 release on September 7, 2025, to address player questions about the transition to the new hardware.

Following the launch on the platform, Ubisoft deployed a sequence of patches to optimize the experience. Title Update 1 for Nintendo Switch 2 was released on September 8, 2025. This was followed by Title Update 2 on October 2, 2025, and Title Update 3 on October 21, 2025.

Content Expansion and Story Packs

Beyond technical patches, Ubisoft has introduced new narrative content and cosmetic additions to the game. On May 21, 2025, the company released an FAQ for a new story pack titled A Pirate’s Fortune.

Ubisoft integrated cross-media content into the game. On May 15, 2025, a free cosmetic pack inspired by the series Star Wars: Skeleton Crew was made available to all players.

Technical Maintenance and Stability

The development roadmap has included frequent stability updates. For example, Hotfix 6.1 was deployed on May 22, 2025, to provide immediate fixes to the player base.

Despite these efforts, the rollout of updates has seen mixed results. While Title Update 1.7 aimed to remove old bugs, some reports indicated that the update introduced new technical issues.

The current availability of Star Wars Outlaws spans multiple platforms, including:

• Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One
• PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4
• PC via EPIC
• Amazon Luna
• Nintendo Switch 2

Community Engagement and Future Outlook

Ubisoft has continued to engage the community through events such as the third annual Photomode contest, which ran from July 1 to July 15, 2025, offering players a chance to win a trip to Ubisoft Montreal.

The studio’s ongoing strategy involves utilizing these updates to address critical feedback and prepare the game for future content cycles, including the preparation for Season 2.
