Ubisoft Shares 'Star Wars Outlaws' and 'Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora' Gameplay

In continuation of Summer Game Fest, Ubisoft took the stage for this year’s Ubisoft Forward — a replacement showcase for its typical E3 presentation. Following up on Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase 2023, the video game publishing company shared a variety of release dates, gameplay footage and more on June 12. The entire showcase is viewable above with three highlights broken down below: Star Wars Outlaws, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and Assassin’s Creed Mirage.

First Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay Walkthrough

Arriving a day after its world premiere, Ubisoft elaborated on its exciting reveal with a gameplay walkthrough that details cunning scoundrel Kay Vess and her companion Nix traversing through the galaxy. The gameplay begins with the duo infiltrating a Pyke syndicate outpost on the moon of Toshara, highlighting Vess’ hand-to-hand combat and Nix’s various abilities — causing a distraction, sneaking over to buttons and more. Later, Vess’ blaster skills are highlighted with the duo entering combat on their way out. The escape sequence reveals a look at the open-world layout while putting vehicle combat to the test before settling down in a cantina and eventually taking flight in her ship. Release for the title remains set for 2024.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Game Overview Trailer

Following up on the success of Avatar: The Way of Water, the Avatar universe continues to receive love with the first-person action-adventure game Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Pairing with an action-packed world premiere trailer, the game overview trailer dives deeper into Pandora, revealing the never-before-seen Western Frontier. Bringing the picturesque landscapes to gaming, it serves as an open-world title that focuses on journeying through the new continent. A release date of December 7 has been announced for the title.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage Gameplay Walkthrough

Rounding out the event’s highlights, more details about the much-anticipated Assassin’s Creed Mirage have been shared via a new gameplay walkthrough. Set in ninth-century Baghdad, a younger version of Basim from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is the main character of the story as a mere common thief who is haunted by visions. As an homage to the original Assassin’s Creed, Basim goes through the journey of becoming a master assassin while taking on mentorship from Hidden Ones Fuladh and Roshan. Throughout the preview, the vibrant city’s landscape operates as the backdrop to Basim’s skillful maneuvering and stealthy hunting. Fans of the series can look forward to the game’s release on October 12.
