The making of Star Wars Outlaws' galaxy: "We instantly realized that the true Star Wars open-world experience needs to go beyond planet surfaces"

Star Wars Outlaws: The Trailblazer ship flies towards the planet of Tatooine.

Star Wars Outlaws is aiming to let us step into the first-ever truly open-world action adventure in the Star Wars universe. Full to the brim with different planets, diverse environments, various cultures, and iconic locations, it's a playground that begs to be explored. During my time at developer Massive’s studio in Malmo, Sweden, I got the chance to hear all about the approach the team took to make this open-world a reality, and it certainly sounds ambitious. But it's also what makes the chance to experience the galaxy far, far away in the shoes of up-and-coming scoundrel Kay Vess so enticing.  

Early on, the team immediately recognized that in order to truly deliver an open-world, they would have to let us navigate through one of the key ingredients that makes Star Wars, well, Star Wars. Space.
