Is Star Wars Outlaws coming to PS5?
Star Wars Outlaws is one of the highly anticipated games from Ubisoft, which was showcased during the 2023 Summer Game Fest conferences and Ubisoft Forward. Initially revealed during the Xbox Games Showcase, there were speculations about it being an Xbox console exclusive. The developer also provided more information about the reputation and wanted systems within the game. If you are wondering whether Star Wars Outlaws will be released on PS5, here’s what you need to know.
Star Wars Outlaws release platforms
According to the official website of Star Wars Outlaws, the game will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Ubisoft Connect. No mention was made of a release on PS4, Xbox One, or Nintendo Switch, suggesting that last-gen consoles will not be supported. The game is set to skip those platforms.
Star Wars Outlaws exclusivity
Star Wars Outlaws is not exclusive to Xbox. Along with the information from the official website, Ubisoft also confirmed during the Ubisoft Forward presentation that there will be a gameplay demo for all three platforms. Given Ubisoft’s financial situation earlier in 2023, it would be unlikely for them to make Star Wars Outlaws a console exclusive. The game is scheduled to launch in 2024.
