If you’re playing Star Wars Outlaws on PS5, you may have lost your save and all your progress. Ubisoft apologizes by offering questionable gifts that will not be accepted.
Star Wars Outlaws will be officially released today, Friday, August 30, 2024, for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. For our part, we have already reviewed it and it took our Geralt on a journey. He received a nice 8/10. Despite obvious flaws, Ubisoft has made a massive effort to create a more measured open world. And the teams especially showed their love for George Lucas’ license. One of the games “the most beautiful and haunting” of the franchise to date. So there are many positives, but in the last few hours there has been a very big negative point for some.
Players lose their Star Wars Outlaws save game
If you have planned your escape to a galaxy far, far away Star Wars OutlawsHave a nice trip! We hope you enjoy the ride alongside Kay Vess and her companion Nix. But if you were really in a hurry to embark on this new adventure, you may have spent a lot of money by opting for the Gold Editions at $ 119.99 or the Ultimate Editions at $ 139.99 to get the right to early access. In this way, it was already possible to launch Star Wars Outlaws from this Tuesday, August 27, 2024 at 12:00 p.m. Only that currently a nasty surprise is upsetting players.
Before the official launch of Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft has released an update 1,000,002 which quickly became a nightmare for Early Access players. In an email to owners of the Gold and Ultimate editions, the publisher warned of potential problems and recommended starting over with a new save. “You may be experiencing issues following the latest Star Wars Outlaws patch. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. Once the latest version is confirmed to be installed, please initiate a fresh save to enjoy the game as intended.”.
A little free content for which I must apologize
And no, there is no alternative solution. This caused many Star Wars Outlaws players who started in Early Access to lose all their progress. For some, this can take several dozen hours. A new controversy that the publisher is trying to compensate with free content that no one wants to be given away. « To make your return to the Outer Rim special, we’re giving you a Trailblazer trinket and 100 Ubisoft Connect units ». A ship cosmetic and Ubisoft Connect credits, suffice it to say that it is not expensive to pay the 1,000,002 inconvenience caused by this update.
“It’s a shame they couldn’t have just implemented a solution. The compensation is ridiculous. They could have at least given us materials to upgrade the vehicles and the blaster faster.” explains 00schneider on Reddit. Another member, Flash__PuP, is discouraged. “It just makes me want to stop everything” he explains after losing 20 hours of gameplay on Star Wars Outlaws.
