Ubisoft has released a thrilling new trailer for their upcoming open-world game, Star Wars Outlaws, showcasing the captivating story of scoundrel Kay Vess. This trailer delves into Kay’s motivations, backstory, and the numerous challenges she will encounter on her epic journey. The action-packed footage reveals Kay engaging in intense combat on both land and in space, featuring the return of beloved characters and creatures from the original trilogy.
One standout moment in the trailer depicts Kay and her Axolotl companion, Nix, hurtling towards a Sarlacc pit during a high-stakes chase. With Jabba the Hutt making an appearance, it seems negotiations did not go as planned, leading to a perilous situation reminiscent of Luke Skywalker’s encounter in Return of the Jedi. Notably, Massive Entertainment opted for the pre-1997 Special Edition version of the Sarlacc, adding a nostalgic touch to the game.
The Sarlacc, a mysterious and deadly creature, remains a subject of fascination for xenobiologists due to its unique characteristics. Reproducing through spores known as Sarlacci, these creatures form the treacherous Sarlacc pit by growing downwards from the ground. The portrayal of the Sarlacc pit in the original trilogy differed from the CGI-enhanced version introduced in the 1997 Special Editions, with the latter featuring a beak and tentacles.
While the updated Sarlacc pit may appear more dynamic, some fans argue that the classic version exuded a more ominous presence. The concept of being consumed by a tooth-lined void, as depicted in the original films, was terrifying enough without the additional features introduced in the Special Editions. The essence of falling into a monstrous maw felt more chilling without the inclusion of a beak and tongue.
