The Balance of Immersion in Star Wars Gaming

Ben, Jomi, and Arjuna discuss their experiences with Ubisoft’s ‘Star Wars: Outlaws.’ They break down the big-budget title’s gameplay, graphics, and performance, as well as its open-world structure, and its portrayal of the ‘Star Wars’ universe. They then critique the broad strokes of the story (6:40), before dipping briefly (and with warnings!) into spoiler territory (1:11:20). After the spoiler section, they reflect on lessons learned from ‘Outlaws,’ assess where it ranks among ‘Star Wars’ games, and share their hopes for future ‘Star Wars’ releases (1:35:40).
