We feel thrilled that Star Wars will soon release an open-world game for us to explore. After all, some of the best parts of Star Wars revolve around its many detailed settings and deep lore. Allowing fans to delve into an open world is exactly the right move for a Star Wars game. But, of course, there’s more to Star Wars Outlaws than its detailed open world, the game, of course, has a fascinating story as well. And now, we finally know more about its tale, which teases, among others Han Solo and Jabba the Hutt. The full story trailer for Star Wars Outlaws has arrived, alongside a brief teaser that shares some Lando fun. You can watch these first looks below. And, excitingly, Star Wars Outlaws has also finally set its release date.

Star Wars Outlaws Reveals Official Story Trailer and Plot Details

Not only does Star Wars Outlaws lets you run around inside of Star Wars world. It also lets you experience a morally grey life which can be a ton of fun. Of course, in true Star Wars fashion, you might also be secretly part of something bigger. The Star Wars Outlaws trailer certainly seems to imply there’s more to some of our major players than meets the eye. For the curious, a release helps shed some light on what we see in the Star Wars Outlaws trailer. You can also watch a new teaser below, which reveals an exciting glimpse of playing Sabacc with Lando himself.

The release reveals that the game will focus on “cunning scoundrel Kay Vess and her companion Nix’s search for an opportunity of a lifetime. During this era, the Empire’s rule is distracted by the rebellion that won’t quit, leading to a golden age for the underworld. As a skilled thief, Kay’s antics catch the attention of Sliro, the leader of a new, foreboding criminal syndicate Zerek Besh. After Sliro places a bounty on Kay’s head, Kay and Nix are offered their one shot at freedom—pull off one of the greatest heists of all time. Kay and Nix will need to navigate the underworld across the galaxy, building their reputation with legendary criminal organizations including the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Cartel, the Ashiga Clan and Crimson Dawn to earn the support they need to finish the job.”

Missions from syndicates, terrifying foes, avoiding the Empire, building a crew and more, it sounds like this game will be a thrilling one for the Star Wars fandom. Douglas Reilly, vice president of Lucasfilm Games shares, “Star Wars Outlaws invites fans to experience a side of the galaxy that has a treasure trove yet to be explored, the exploits of the scoundrels taking advantage of the golden age of the underworld. We’ve been inspired by Massive Entertainment’s dedication to bringing this aspect of Star Wars to life, including both iconic and new things for fans to explore in an open world.”

Along the way, Kay will explore bustling cities and cantinas, race across sprawling outdoor landscapes on her speeder, and pilot her ship the Trailblazer through the wilds of space. When things go awry, the Trailblazer will also help them chase, evade and attack to gain the upper hand in thrilling dogfights with the Empire and other foes.”

‘Dungeon People’ Offers a World of Adventure This Summer on HIDIVE

https://blacknerdproblems.com/dungeon-people-this-summer-on-hidive/

Another anime set in a dungeon? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! A truly labyrinthian adventure awaits fans Summer 2024 with today’s announcement that new fantasy comedy series Dungeon People will stream exclusively on HIDIVE starting in July. Based on the popular seinen manga by Futami Sui, Dungeon People joins the slate of  Summer 2024 titles set to simulcast on AMC Network’s HIDIVE anime streaming service–including I Parry Everything! and the second season of Oshi no Ko. Ahead of the series’ debut next month, HIDIVE will host the North American premiere of Dungeon People Episode 1 on July 6 at Anime Expo 2024 in Los Angeles, Calif.  

“We’re excited to bring Dungeon People to fans this summer as part of HIDIVE’s exclusive simulcast line-up,” said John Ledford, President of HIDIVE. “This new fantasy comedy will entertain subscribers with a dungeon-delving world of adventure that they won’t want to miss!”

What Do We Know?

On the hunt for her missing father, master thief Clay heads off into an unexplored dungeon—but much to her surprise, the dungeon’s caretaker offers her a job! Thievery hasn’t worked for her thus far, so perhaps this new career path will take her closer to finding her dad. But change is never easy. From interviewing monster guardians to positioning traps to confounding would-be explorers, Clay has a lot to learn about what it means to be one of the dungeon people. Clay, will be voiced by Sayaka Senbongi (Marcille in our fave Delicious in Dungeon), while Belle will be voiced by Sayumi Suzushiro (Rina in The Unwanted Undead Adventurer).

What is it Adapted From?

Dungeon People is adapted from the manga title created by Futami Sui that launched in June 2020 and is currently serialized in Futabasha’s Web Action Comics. The English language version of the manga is published by Seven Seas Entertainment with three volumes currently out in print and a fourth volume set to release later this year. Dungeon People is directed by Sayaka Yamai together with writing by Toshimitsu Takeuchi, character design by Yumi Nakayama and production by OLM. The series stars Sayaka Senbongi as Clay and Sayumi Suzushiro as Bell.
