Ubisoft’sStar Wars Outlawsnears its August 30 release date, and the hype couldn’t be any higher for the promise of a new open-world experience set in the Star Wars universe.
Set betweenThe Empire Strikes BackandReturn of the Jedi, this game offers a unique opportunity to explore familiar and new characters from theStar Warscanon. While we have already seen some official character appearances in the trailers. Here are five legacy characters we believe should make an appearance in the upcoming game.
5Migs Mayfeld
Migs Mayfeld, introduced inThe Mandalorian, is an ex-Imperial sharpshooter turned mercenary.
His morally ambiguous nature and complex backstory make him an intriguing character to encounter inStar Wars Outlaws. Set during a time when Mayfeld is still navigating his post-Imperial life, he could appear as either a potential friend or foe.
4. Cad Bane
Cad Bane, the notorious Duros bounty hunter, is a character fans have long wanted to see in more media. His ruthless demeanor and exceptional combat skills would make him a perfect boss or antagonist of some kind.
Given the game’s focus on the criminal underworld, Bane’s involvement would be fitting. In the game, Bane could serve as an elite boss or a complex character who players might occasionally ally with, depending on their choices.
3. Peli Motto
Peli Motto, the lovable mechanic fromThe Mandalorian, would be an ideal addition toOutlaws. Operating out of Hangar 3-5 in Mos Eisley, Peli and her droids could offer repair services and ship upgrades essential for Kay Vess’s interstellar adventures.

Peli’s quirky personality and interactions with her droids would bring a touch of humor and charm, making routine visits to her garage a delightful experience.
2. Maz Kanata
Maz Kanata, the ancient and wise pirate queen first seen inThe Force Awakens, would be a fitting addition toOutlaws. Her castle on Takodana serves as a haven for smugglers and outlaws, making it an ideal hub for Kay Vess to frequent.
Maz’s deep knowledge of the Force and her extensive network in the criminal world could provide Kay with valuable resources and information.
1Boba Fett
Boba Fett, the galaxy’s most infamous bounty hunter, is a natural fit forOutlaws. With his deep ties to the criminal world and a penchant for high-stakes jobs, his presence would not only add depth to the game’s storyline but also align perfectly with its outlaw theme.
As seen in the game’s trailers, Fett’s association with Jabba the Hutt makes him a likely candidate to cross paths with Kay Vess.
Star Wars Outlawshas the potential to follow the steps ofJedi: Fallen OrderandJedi Survivor’s success. Fans have already experienced theStar Warsuniverse in modern titles with new-gen graphics. But an open-world title likeOutlawshas the chance to take it to the next level.

Fans have been very skeptical ahead of the game’s release due to it being aUbisoftgame. The studio hasn’t had a good standing with fans in recent times with its releases. ButOutlawshas the chance for the studio to turn the favor of fans. Although,the move to lock a quest behind preordersisn’t quite how to go about it.
But that aside, the game does have potential. And fans of theStar Warsfranchise will most likely still flock to experience a new adventure set in the beloved universe. Seeing some familiar faces would definitely add to the hype and fun.
