Graphical improvements and *stability*
Image: UbisoftStar Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft’s excellent open world adventure, has received another update on the Switch 2.
This isn’t a huge one, but it contains further improvements to the overall visuals, including upping the quality of the textures – yum. We’ve also got some of that all-important Stability™ alongside some more general fixes to the game’s story and UI.
Be warned, Ubisoft does mention that these patch notes may contain spoilers, so keep that in mind if you’ve still yet to experience Outlaws.
