Good news everyone! You’ll be shouting “Dank farrik” a lot less now that Ubisoft has released its latest patch for the recently released Star Wars Outlaws.

The patch, which has been released for all available platforms (PC, PS5, Xbox Series), fixes a numbers of known issues, introduced cross progression and cloud saves via the Ubisoft Connect site, as well as tweaked some of the more challenging ‘instant fail’ stealth sections, which some players had been lamenting. You can also now get the platinum trophy on PS5, great news for trophy hunters.

Detailing the patch notes on their website, Ubisoft thanked the community for the positivity surrounding the game, and the embracing of new outlaw duo, Kay Vess and Nix (and let’s be fair, Nix is a legend!).
