Massive Discount on Star Wars Outlaws + Story Packs: What’s on Offer & Is It Worth It?

Good news if you’ve been holding off: Ubisoft is currently discounting Star Wars Outlaws, with base game and story-pack prices at their lowest in a while. The promotion runs through October 2nd, so there’s time to grab the deal. Let’s break down what’s included, what’s good, and whether this is one to pull the trigger on.


What’s in the Deal

  • Base Game Discounted: The Standard Edition of Star Wars Outlaws is on sale for around $16.50 USD on the Ubisoft Store. This is a major markup compared to its full price (~$69.99).
  • Story Packs & Season Pass Content: If you like your single-player expansions and added missions, the two story packs Wild Card and A Pirate’s Fortune are also on sale. These expand the main campaign, add fresh content, quests, and characters (including interactions with characters like Hondo Ohnaka in A Pirate’s Fortune).

What You Get for Your Money

Putting in ~$16.50 gets you the core open-world Outlaws experience:

  • Explore familiar and new planets
  • Play as Kay Vess, the scoundrel trying to carve out freedom amid the lawless edges of the galaxy
  • Engage in stealth, smuggling, blaster fights, ship travel, and reputation building.

If you add the story packs:

  • Wild Card adds intrigue and smuggling missions (including a Sabacc tournament and an encounter with Lando Calrissian)
  • A Pirate’s Fortune further expands the storyline into the Khepi system, involves pirate factions, treasure hunts, and new characters (Hondo Ohnaka among them).

Things to Consider

Before you commit, here are some trade-offs and “fine print” you should know:

  • System Performance & Platform: If you’re playing on PC, make sure your machine meets the recommended specs. Since this is a big open-world title, framerate drops or visual compromises may occur on lower-end hardware.
  • Story Pack Prerequisites: Some DLC content might expect you to have progressed through the main story or met certain milestones. It’s worth checking if the story packs unlock immediately or require baseline progress.
  • Price vs Value: Although the discounted price is very tempting, if you only want a short playthrough, it may still feel heavier than expected if much of your time is side content or exploration.
  • Long-Term Support: Ubisoft has been updating Outlaws with additional content, but there have been varying opinions about how polished certain features are. Buying in now grants you access to what’s released, though future content is less guaranteed.

Verdict: Is This Deal Worth It?

For most gamers who enjoy single-player open-world experiences, Outlaws at ~$16.50 plus discounted story packs is a strong value. You’re getting a very solid base game plus optional expansions that broaden the narrative and exploration.

If you’re a Star Wars fan, someone who loves smuggling, exploration, or just wandering through a living galaxy with choices, this is probably a deal you’ll want to grab. If you’re more of a tight budgeting gamer who wants only the leanest experience, the base offer alone might be enough—just check whether the story packs add content you’ll actually enjoy.
