Ubisoft Cancels Star Wars Outlaws Sequel—Did It Flop?
Ubisoft has quietly shelved the sequel to Star Wars Outlaws. According to reporting from reliable insiders like Tom Henderson, the project never progressed beyond pre-production and was officially scrapped while still in very early stages. 🚩 Weak Sales Sealed Its Fate Star Wars Outlaws launched in late August 2024 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Despite being part of one of the most iconic franchises, it sold only about 1 million copies in its first month—well short of Ubisoft’s internal goal of around 5 million units. For a AAA open-world game backed by a massive IP, that performance raised alarm bells internally. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot later pointed to broader issues affecting the Star Wars brand, suggesting the franchise was “in choppy waters” when Outlaws released. Mixed sentiment around media entries like The Acolyte and Skeleton Crew, combined with controversy and lower-than-expected engagement, contributed to a general decline in consumer…
Ubisoft CEO Says Star Wars Isn’t as Popular Anymore – Blames Weak Star Wars Outlaws Preorders on Brand Decline
When Star Wars Outlaws was revealed as Ubisoft’s big swing at an open-world Star Wars game, the expectations were sky-high. An original story? Check. Scoundrel protagonist? Check. AAA polish from a major publisher? Well… that’s where things started to fall apart. Now, nearly a year after launch, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has confirmed what many suspected: Star Wars Outlaws didn’t just underperform—it failed to meet Ubisoft’s sales targets. And in a recent shareholder meeting, he pointed fingers in two directions: the Star Wars brand and the game’s rough launch state. “We Didn’t Reach Our Sales Targets” During the meeting, Guillemot was candid about Outlaws‘ performance. He acknowledged that the game only moved around one million copies in its first month, a far cry from the numbers Ubisoft hoped to see from a globally recognized franchise. “For Star Wars Outlaws, we didn’t reach our sales targets,” Guillemot said. “The game suffered…
