In Star Wars Outlaws, you play as Kay Vess, a young woman and thief who dreams of escaping her dangerous life to live free in the galaxy. Humberly González, who you may know from TV shows like Ginny and Georgia, Nurses, and In The Dark, provides the voice and performance for Kay. She even did some voice work on Ubisoft's previous titles Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Far Cry 6.

Kay is from Canto Bight on Cantonica, which you might recognize as the casino planet in Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi, though 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:When Star Wars Outlaws takes place means we're visiting the location much earlier in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars timeline -  b🏅etween Episodes V and VI. Specifically,♊ she's from the Worker's District of Canto Bight, which is far removed from the opulence of the main city.

To survive in the downtrodden district, Kay's mother, Riko Vess, taught her the basics of petty crime, helping Kay to become a talented thief and adept at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Outlaws lockpicking and slicing. At some point during her childhood, Kay happened across a merqaal creature who she took in as a pet and called Nix, and he is a major asset in her criminal undertakings, helpi♐ng her distract and steal from her targets.

However, prior to the start of Star Wars Outlaws, Riko abandoned Kay on Cantonica, leaving her to fend for herself. With little to her name and not many marks left to swindle in the Worker's District, Kay lives job-to-job, renting a small loft room in the Broken Hoof bar. Bram Shano, the bar's owner, has been looking after Kay for years, providing free food and helping her pick up illicit work around the city. Bram is also the first 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Outlaws Expert Kay unlocks and helps her to learn the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Outlaws Fast Talk ability.

With no crew to rely on and barely any 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Outlaws credits to her name, Kay is becoming increasingly desperate when the game begins. This desperation and her relative naivety to the cutthroat nature of the Outer Rim's criminal underworldไ means she's really quite in over her head. And so, the game kicks off with her tussling with the Worker District's local gang, the Sixth Kin, before things escalate, leading to her crossin𒅌g the leader of the dominant Zerek Besh syndicate, and eventually the likes of the Pyke Syndicate, Hutt Cartel, and the Empire.
