Star Wars Outlaws - Standard Edition
Much like many of the latest video games, Star Wars Outlaws has an MSRP of $69.99. This is a single-player adventure where you take on the role of a scoundrel named Kay Vess in the time period between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Kay and her furry friend, Nix, are keen to take on various seedy jobs to prove themselves, which is how they get involved with a secretive droid and an intense heist.
Get ready to travel the galaxy, see familiar Star Wars locations, fly the Trailblazer, and get into a lot of trouble. You're gonna need to use your stealth skills as well as your blaster skills to make it through this adventure.
Star Wars Outlaws - Gold Edition
The Gold Edition of Star Wars Outlaws has a $109.99 MSRP, making it $40 more than the Standard Edition thanks to the extra goodies that come with it, including an extra mission involving Jabba the Hutt that's available day one. If you think you'll want to spend a lot of time with Kay in a galaxy far far away then this edition might be a good choice for you.
This edition also provides a cosmetic pack for Kay that is reminiscent of Han Solo's iconic clothes as well as a bandolier for Nix that looks an awful lot like Chewbacca's sash. So, you can dress up just like the scruffy-looking nerf-herder and his walking carpet.

As we get closer and closer to the release of Star Wars Outlaws, I can't help but get excited. I've been playing Star Wars games since the days of the Dark Forces series with Kyle Katarn and it looks likely that Kay's adventure was inspired by these classics. We've had plenty of multiplayer Star Wars games of late but the only other single-player games have really been with Jedi-focused Cal Kestis. I'm really looking forward to diving into the Han Solo-style smuggler side of things.
I'll personally be purchasing the Gold Edition of Star Wars Outlaws. But if you're just interested in the base game than the Standard Edition is the perfect choice. You'll receive some cool cosmetics for preordering the game. Of course, if you're really excited for Outlaws, you might want to consider getting the Ultimate Edition and all of the extras that come with it.
