Star Wars Outlaws Update Improves Stealth Missions Experience

A new patch has gone live for Star Wars Outlaws, and the key takeaway from this update is that stealth missions should be less frustrating to play. Developer Massive Entertainment says that it has focused on improving stealth to give players more flexibility, and another welcome fix being introduced in the update is an improvement to speeder travel.

Stealth in Outlaws was fairly unforgiving when the game first launched, but this has been fine-tuned over the last couple of weeks. The new tweaks aim to reduce the frequency of instant-fail moments during specific missions, allowing players to have more options at their disposal to complete these sequences.

The update also includes other gameplay fixes, including improved NPC behavior, increased auto-save opportunities in open-world hostile areas, and “Wanted” difficulty will now scale according to player progression.

Key Changes in the Update

Massive Entertainment is also investigating other issues in the PC version of the game, including an ongoing issue affecting PC players after the 24H2 Windows Update. The studio is working hard to identify the root cause and its resolution.

This update is the third major update for Outlaws, following its launch in August. The game was generally well-received, but it was criticized for a heavy number of bugs and early instant-fail stealth missions.
