Star Wars Outlaws drops fresh trailer, revealing Lando Calrissian

A fresh look at upcoming Ubisoft open-world action-adventure title Star Wars Outlaws has been revealed, and it features the return of a character that wasn't previously confirmed to be coming to the title.

Interestingly, the trailer not only shows off brief snippets of what we can expect from the upcoming title, but also shows off a beloved character from the Star Wars universe: Lando Calrissian. At this point in time, between the events of Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Lando is with Leia, Chewbacca and Luke, suggesting that we also might see them in the game. Either way, it's likely that Han Solo himself is brought up at some point, considering we see Jabba the Hutt in the trailer and he's literally on Tatooine during this time period, frozen in carbonite.

Take a look at the new trailer below. Can you spot Lando?

We already know that there's several different missions that will feature Jabba the Hutt, with at least one of them currently being offered up as a pre-order exclusive (along with the ability to play the title a few days early), so perhaps we'll actually get a glimpse at the beloved smuggler in the full gameplay trailer. There's not a ton to take from the newest trailer, only information that we already knew about such as the fact that players will be riding speeder bikes around planets, that we can travel between different worlds, and that our main companion is a massive robot.

We'll be seeing more from the title next week on Monday 9 June, with a full gameplay reveal promised for the title during the upcoming Ubisoft Forward. The game itself is currently due for release on August 30, and was revealed during last years Xbox and Bethesda Showcase, before later receiving a full trailer during that years Ubisoft Forward conference.
