If you've been hunting after the Star Wars Outlaws achievements but thought the game could use a fair bit of polish, then you're in luck, as Ubisoft has outlined its Star Wars Outlaws roadmap with all the improvements it plans to make. Good thing, too, as the roadmap was followed by reports that Star Wars Outlaws has managed to sell just one million copies in its first month.

Star Wars Outlaws has several updates planned for October and November

"Our team is currently working hard to address your feedback and deliver new content," Ubisoft says. "More title updates will be heading your way in the coming weeks along with the release of our first story pack on November 21st."

First up is Title Update 2, which arrives later this week on October 3, with a key focus of bug fixes and improvements. Later in the month, we'll get Title Update 3, which will target quality-of-life improvements. Title Update 4 will arrive on the same day as the first story pack, Wild Card, on November 21, and will focus on combat and stealth improvements. It'll also bring new free content with extra contracts.

Ubisoft previously admitted sales had been "softer than expected", and a new report from Insider Gaming, which claims to have spoken to "sources close to the game," now suggests Star Wars Outlaws has only managed to sell one million copies in the month after it launched. Insider Gaming also suggests these sales (which it compares to Assassin's Creed Mirage having reportedly reached five million sales three months after launch) are one reason why Assassin's Creed Shadows was delayed. Ubisoft's next big Assassin's Creed game was set to launch in November, but has been pushed back to early 2025. In the meantime, we'll need to wait and see how Star Wars Outlaws looks after Ubisoft drops these next few updates.
