Star Wars Outlaws - Title Update 1.3.0

Outlaws,

A new patch has been deployed for Star Wars Outlaws across all platforms!

In this third Title Update, we've focused on improving stealth to give players more flexibility in how they approach situations in addition to tuning enemy AI and speeder travel. Many other improvements and fixes have been implemented to improve your journey across the galaxy. You can find the complete list of changes below.

Our next and 4th Title Update will be released on November 21St - and it's going to be our biggest one yet with exciting new features and improvements. Stay tuned for more details coming your way soon!

We are also aware of an ongoing issue affecting PC players after the 24H2 Windows Update. We are working hard to identify both the root cause and its resolution. This investigation is taking some time; therefore, the fix couldn't be ready for this Title Update. We'll deploy one as soon as it's ready and update all affected players.

As we strive to enhance the future of Star Wars Outlaws, your feedback remains invaluable to us. To improve transparency and communication, we're excited to introduce a dedicated Bug Reporter tool, where you can report issues and track their status. Find details on how to report your bugs using Bug Reporter tool below.

Thank you for your support and see you in the Outer Rim!
