Crimson Dawn Is Revealed
Along With A Character Not Seen On-Screen Since Solo: A Star Wars Story
While the Hutts , Pykes , and a new tribe call the Ashiga were antecedently confirmed to be inStar Wars Outlaws , the Crimson Dawn is mentioned by name during Sliro ’s meeting with the Outer Rim ’s major organisation at the start of the dawdler - which can be find out onUbisoft ’s Youtube channel .

The galaxy far , far forth is n’t just made up of Jedi , and there are some powerful and unsafe factions for instrumentalist to match in Star Wars Outlaws .
Han Solo In Carbonite Establishes Star Wars Outlaws' Timeline
And Could Hint At Comic Events Being Featured In The Game
Kay can be see stand in Jabba ’s castle await at a wintry Han Solo case in Carbonite , which may allow on Wars Outlaws ' timeline than viewers may first think . While it ’s already well known that the game need place betweenThe Empire Strikes BackandReturn of the Jedi , the reveal house trailer showed Solo ’s Carbonite being enthrall across Tatooine , suggesting that thespian may see some of the upshot that unfolded on the way to Jabba ’s palace .
If so , this could see the return of one of the series ' most iconic H.M.S. Bounty hunters , Boba Fett , as theWar of the Bounty Hunterscomics establishedthat Crimson Dawn stole Solo in theWar of the Bounty Huntersarc as bait for a trap before Boba Fett reacquired him . With the Carbonite secured in Jabba ’s Palace , where it was situate at the starting time ofReturn of the Jedi , in the Modern trailer , this make it more potential that role player will see some of these event spread , potentially while working with Qi’ra and Crimson Dawn , or at least try about them occurring off - screen while exploring Jabba ’s palace .
Some Major Crime Syndicates Are Still Missing
Two Of The Five Major Syndicates Haven’t Been Shown Or Mentioned
Perhaps the most telling final result of Sliro ’s coming together was some ofthe crime syndicates that are n’t mention , notably , Black Sun and Crymorah . Black Sun was very dynamic around this time , as shown in the now non - canonShadows of the Empiremultimedia event of the ' 90 , and was re - shew in Disney ’s new canyon during the fifth time of year ofStar Wars : The Clone Warsin 2012 . With how give Black Sun was , its deletion suggests that the syndicate may be being downplayed in the promotional stuff for a larger role in Kay ’s report , especially with Sliro ’s H.M.S. Bounty hunter subsequently advise Kay is " mixed up in something bigger " during the narrative drone .
Crymorah , however , has never been shown on screen but originate from James Luceno ’s novelTarkin . The mob is form of several major crime families who punt pirate crew and used repurposed Separatist conflict droids as their musculus as they conduct their villainous schemes , with this group being called the Droid Gotra . consider one of Kay ’s master allies , ND-5 , is a conflict - inure , repurposed Separatist battle droid , it ’s possible that this group could be mentioned at least , even if the Crymorah remains unseen .
With the upcoming release of Star Wars Outlaws , the franchise ’s games are last return to an era last visited in this medium almost 30 years ago .
Set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, Star Wars Outlaws is an open-world action-adventure game where players hop into the scoundrel boots of Kay Vess, a woman who travels the galaxy Looking for a better life. Together with her furry partner Nix and new allies she meets along the way, Kay will navigate the various landscapes, towns, and planets across the galaxy while outsmarting both Crime Syndicates and the Empire.
“A Rebellion That Won’t Quit”
The Rebellion Is Growing, Posing A Greater Threat To The Empire
briefly after the Battle of Hoth , it looked as though the insurrection was doomed , but Sliro ’s comment during his group meeting with the major syndicates suggests that their forces are growing much larger at this prison term and posing an actual threat that the Empire ca n’t ignore .
Sliro states that the Empire is too deflect by " a rebellion that wo n’t discontinue " , as one of his reasonableness for believe it ’s a " gilded era " for offense . This further institute thatStar Wars Outlawsmay take stead closerto the scuttle ofReturn of the Jedithan the closing ofThe Empire Strikes Back .
The Mon Calamari’s Role In The Criminal Underworld
Danka’s Information Broker Could Be Poking Fun At Admiral Ackbar
Kay ’s info broker , Danka , appears briefly inStar Wars Outlaws ' new account trailer but was revealed last year in its gameplay footage as she partake in she was cooperate with a corrupt royal officer who threatened criminal prosecution against Kay if a bribe is not provided to her , demonstrating some of the choices players would get to make and their consequences . The story trailer shows a moment from a different scene as Danka tells Kay : " Out here you live and drop dead by your reputation . You wanna survive ? Know the participant . "
have a Mon Calamari work as a broker between syndicates and the Empire is an interesting selection considering the franchise ’s most well - roll in the hay member of the metal money , Admiral Ackbar ’s huge disdain of the criminal underworld in the now non - canonLegendscontinuity . This was due to him being a striver to Moff Tarkin beforeA New Hopein that continuity , where he was often abused and degraded . Fortunately , Ackbar used the insider knowledge he learn during his time with the Empire to assist the rebel forces , and became one of their master tacticians following his leak .
Kay Is Moved Over The Rancor Pit
One Moment Is Made More Amusing With A Return Of The Jedi Scene In Mind
This moment has a dingy element of humor for those who are intimate withReturn of the Jedi , as it ’s apparent that the Gamorrean Guards are n’t pushing Kay closer to Jabba , but rather over the Rancor pitfall . InReturn of the Jedi , Luke was drop into the pit along with a Gamorrean Guard , and while the towering Rancor ate the safeguard as Jabba watched with entertainment , Luke was able to escape , drop a large threshold down upon the creature ’s foreland .
The Rancor has come along in severalStar Warsgames , from theJabba ’s Palace map in 2005’sStar war : Battlefront 2toStar Wars Jedi : Survivor ’s intriguing boss fight in the Sodden Grotto on Koboh . With this in mind , it ’s probable that Kay will also have a run - in with the beast during her metre on Tatooine .
Star Wars Outlaws Features The Original Sarlacc Pit
The Sarlacc Doesn’t Have One Of Its Post-Special Editions Features
Another indication that Kay ’s conversation with Jabba does n’t go well is that Kay and Nix can by and by be take in sliding toward a Sarlacc pit during a avant-garde chase , suggesting that Jabba send off her to die in the " Great Pit of Carkoon " , much as he tried with Luke Skywalker inReturn of the Jedi . More surprisingly , Massive Entertainment seems to have used theoriginal translation of the Sarlaccfrom before George Lucas ' 1997 Special Edition re - releases of the original trilogy as breathing in .
While the original Sarlacc was a seemingly never - cease vacuum with razor - knifelike teeth around the edge , the adaptation picture in the Special Editions of the film and subsequent releases was intended to be far more animalistic , with the addition ofan unintimidating beak in the midway , visible tentacle , and reasoned effects . According toThe Book of Boba Fett- which originally show Boba Fett escaping from a seemingly beakless Sarlacc as well , the beak is a retractable tongue and a lowly mouth , and its tentacles will pull its prey toward it .
Whether its schnoz was merely retracted or not , the version of the Sarlacc inStar Wars Outlaws ' drone does n’t seem to have move tentacles either . While there are tentacle - like things around the boundary , these seem lifeless and certainly do n’t judge to pull Kay further into the stone pit , evoke that Massive Entertainment took more inspiration from the classical Sarlacc than the later versions .
