Star Wars Outlaws is the latest game in the Star Wars franchise, in which you play a rogue named Kay as she attempts to carve out a future for herself in the larger universe. But will the new game be canon?
Can Star Wars Outlaws exceed gamers' expectations?
Whenever a new title is added to Star Wars, it doesn't take long for fans to debate whether or not something is considered "canon" within the larger events of the very established universe.
In order for Outlaws to be canon, it must adhere to the official Star Wars timeline of events, meaning there are no changes to the core building blocks of the Star Wars universe. With so much information floating around about the impending release of Star Wars Outlaws, we're here to answer whether or not the game is truly canon.
In an official FAQ about the game, developers Massive Entertainment told players when the game is set and whether Outlaws is canon-compliant. Massive stated that it worked with Lucasfilm to ensure the game "respects the source material," but never outright said the game is canon.
