Massive Entertainment and Ubisoft have released a new Star Wars Outlaws update, the game’s third update since its release back on PC, PS5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X back in August. And just like the game’s original release, this new update is available on all platforms.
According to the official patch notes for the update — Update 1.03 — the new update is focused on improving stealth in the game, enemy AI, and speeder travel. This is not the full extent of the update though. However, there aren’t any new features or any new content. The former is apparently coming in the game’s fourth update on November 21 though, an update the aforementioned describe as the game’s biggest yet.
Below, you can check the official patch noes for Star Wars Outlaws Update 1.03 as they have been officially provided by Ubisoft.
