Forget the good and evil of Jedi and Sith, it's time for amoral scoundrel shenanigans by way of protagonist Kay Vess.

But before we get too excited, what are the PC requirements?

It's pretty straightforward on consoles, but if you're playing on a PC there are a few things you'll want to check before forking out over a hundred quid for the Ultimate Edition.

So, what are the required specs for Star Wars Outlaws on PC? And, if we want that smooth sailing experience, what are the recommended?

Which PC platforms can play Star Wars Outlaws?

Firstly, from which PC platforms can you play Star Wars Outlaws? There's no point worrying about the specs if you're not with the right one.

At the time of writing, Star Wars Outlaws is on Ubisoft Connect and Epic Games Store, but it isn't on Steam.

This is quite a blow for many PC gamers (especially owners of a Steam Deck), but will it always be the case?

Will Star Wars Outlaws come to Steam?

It's impossible to say at the moment, but we predict that Star Wars Outlaws will eventually release on Steam.

It might be a couple of years yet. But since Ubisoft titles Assassin's Creed Valhalla eventually dropped on Steam, we're hoping Outlaws will eventually follow suit.
