First reviews for Star Wars Outlaws are positive overall, though somewhat mixed

The verdict is in for Star Wars Outlaws, releasing on August 30. The press has had its say, and Ubisoft's title has left some cold.

On Metacritic, the title scored an average of 77% on PS5 (56 reviews), 78% on PC (22 reviews) and 77% on Xbox Series (16 reviews). As for OpenCritic, the overall score is currently set at 76% (for 62 reviews).

The game is praised by the beauty of the environments, a pretty fun open world to explore, a great faction system and endearing main characters. On the negative side, we got plenty of bugs, poor AI, somewhat frustrating stealth and a technical aspect a bit lacking.
