For all Star Wars fans, the next Star Wars Outlaws is of course highly anticipated and during the recent Comic-Con in San Diego we got some exciting new information regarding the game. The two locations confirmed so far are the new moon Toshara and a certain familiar desert planet called Tatooine. Game director Julian Gerighty told us that Toshara is inspired by the African savannah, and the planet is designed for Kay Vess to move around with her speeder, so wide open fields are to be expected.
Gerighty Said : “We start with a biome, in this case, Southeast African biomes as inspiration, and then you add a touch to it to make it a little foreign. If you think of the first hits, maybe not the first, but the first shots of Tatooine. Beautiful recognizable architecture, but two suns. For us, it’s having this huge mountain and carving it into the amber of the mountain, the crystalline substance is a city, and these orange outcrops, a highly reflective material. This is what brings the truly alien nature. Familiar but fresh.
Lucasfilm’s Matt Martin explained that they follow the 80/20 rule when creating new locations where 80 percent should feel familiar and the bottom twenty percent may feel unfamiliar. In the case of Toshara, the inspiration of the African plains is familiar, while the city of the moon and the crystals are the remaining twenty percent. They continued to tell us more regarding the familiar place Tatooine and mentioned a certain bar that we know of course.
“It’s not just regarding recreating Tatooine. It’s regarding creating a place with its own sense of history. If you close your eyes and give people the choice to go anywhere on Tatooine? Mos Eisley. And more precisely a water point in Mos Eisley. The opportunity is that you can see every nook and cranny. You can see everything informed by the Lucasfilm archives. This concept of virtual tourism is important to us. If you ever wondered the distances between the wet farms and the canteen? We have an experience for you.
In addition, we will also be able to visit the palace that Jabba the hut calls home, and carry out missions for the well-known character. You should also be able to betray him, which of course has consequences.
There’s still no set release date for Star Wars Outlaws other than the hope that it’ll come out next year. If you want to read a longer San-Diego Comic Con interview with the game director, you can find itici.
