Star Wars Outlaws: A New Venture in the Lucas Universe

Set to release in 2024, Star Wars Outlaws represents a bold collaboration between Ubisoft and Lucasfilm. The game is expected to blend the expansive universe created by George Lucas with sophisticated open-world mechanics.
The Story and Characters
Players will step into the shoes of the main character, Kay Vess, a skilled thief, who will be accompanied by ND-5, a separatist droid. This narrative setup promises a fresh take on the Star Wars universe, offering new perspectives and storytelling approaches within the beloved franchise.
Development by Massive Entertainment

Assassin’s Creed Codename RED: A Return to Open-World RPG
Scheduled for 2025
Assassin’s Creed Codename RED is slated for release in 2025, continuing the legacy of the Assassin’s Creed series. Unlike Assassin’s Creed Mirage, which focused on a return to the saga’s origins, Codename RED aims to revive and expand the open-world RPG elements that have become a hallmark of the series in recent years.
