Star Wars Outlaws, the 2024 title by Massive Entertainment, has revealed the first teaser image for its DLC, A Pirate's Fortune, and I'm definitely on board. The game, which set out to embrace more of the scum and villainy of the Star Wars universe than other titles, will finally be exploring more of the pirate side of the galaxy with The Clone Wars' own Hondo Ohnaka in the next DLC. It's a subject that has the potential to be far more interesting than the topic of the last DLC, Wild Card.

Pirates have always been a fun group to see in the Star Wars universe, since lack of moral consistency can make for interesting situations. While the last DLC allowed players to play Sabacc with Lando Calrissian, A Pirate's Fortune will hopefully top off the game with an explosive pirate-themed adventure.

Star Wars Outlaws’ Next DLC Focuses On Hondo Ohnaka

Though further details have yet to be revealed, the official Star Wars: Outlaws X has revealed the first image teaser for its second DLC, which shows the infamous pirate Hondo Ohnaka alongside Kay Vess and her merqaal companion, Nix. While it was confirmed back in August 2024 that Ohnaka would appear in the content, the teaser confirms that fans will finally learn more about what the DLC will entail very soon at Star Wars Celebration on April 18.

In a roap for the game released on the Ubisoft blog, the second DLC also has a brief plot teaser, which said "The Trailblazer's reputation precedes Kay as she runs into veteran pirate Hondo Ohnaka, who is looking to settle old scores with a ruthless gang of pirates." Based on this single-sentence description, it sounds like Kay will be roped into one of Ohnaka's famously half-baked plans as they go up against a more ruthless band of enemies.

A Different Side Of The Criminal Underground

The first DLC for Star Wars: Outlaws, Wild Card, featured Lando Calrissian, the dashing, cape-wearing smuggler in a high-stakes Sabacc tournament, but unfortunately, the DLC fell a bit flat despite the potential to revamp the game. It's a short story with some fun characters, but it didn't add too much to the main game and failed to offer something exciting enough to truly stand out from the base experience. While a tense Sabacc game with Lando is appealing, Lando has been a go-to Star Wars side character for decades with no shortage of appearances.

Hondo Ohnaka is a more unique inclusion. He's become a Star Wars fan-favorite since he debuted in the animated show, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, even appearing as a full-fledged animatronic in the Walt Disney World ride Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. Ohnaka gets far less screen time than a character like Lando, which makes this second DLC's opportunity to explore a different portion of the criminal underground a little more interesting. Where Lando is charming, Ohnaka is bombastic, which will hopefully bring Star Wars Outlaws to more high-speed territory with more unique enemy groups.
