Play through the main story quests long enough and you’ll get the item. There’s no hidden side quest or trick to unlocking it.
With all of that in mind, here’s how to get the Star Wars Outlaws Fusion Cutter. Watch the video above or read our advice below.
How to get the Fusion Cutter in Star Wars Outlaws explained
To unlock the Fusion Cutter in Star Wars Outlaws, you need to play through the main story mission Legacy.
Simply play the main story quests for long enough and you’ll unlock the item.
Once you have unlocked the Fusion Cutter during Legacy, you can use it on any metal bar door that hindered your progress before. There are a few of these scattered across the various planets, with a big score of treasure behind each one waiting to be found.
The only issue here is that reaching Legacy of the main story quests will take you a long time. The mission comes right near the end of the game – no, there’s no quick fix. You’ll just have to wait it out and unlock the item as it comes towards the main story’s conclusion.
If you want to see the Fusion Cutter in action in video form, check out the video below from our YouTube channel:
Now you have the 'Fusioncutter' (as it’s otherwise known), you should head back to those locations you couldn’t access without the tool before. There will be some great treasure waiting behind those locked doors for you to grab.
The item is yours to keep after completing the main story quest Legacy.
