In the new edition of Edge, on sale now, Star Wars: Outlaws creative director Julian Gerighty explains how Ubisoft Massive wants to present a galaxy of gameplay options to create an unparalleled level of choice within the familiar sci-fi setting.
A gun battle breaks out during the mission of our demo sequence, with iconic Star Wars blaster effects pinging all around, but we’re assured that it would also have been perfectly valid to stay in stealth mode all the way to where lead character Kay Vess’ speeder bike is located, never getting into a fight before making an escape. “We’re really focusing on what ‘open world’ means to the player,” Gerighty says, “which is full freedom of approach.”
