(Image credit: Ubisoft) Star Wars Outlaws main character explained (Image credit: Ubisoft) 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 onUbisoft’s previous titles Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora andFar Cry 6.

Specifically, she’s from the Worker’s District of Canto Bight, which is far removed from the opulence of the main city. (Image credit: Ubisoft) 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 atStar Wars Outlaws lockpickingand 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, helping 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 firstStar Wars Outlaws ExpertKay unlocks and helps her to learn theStar Wars Outlaws Fast Talkability. (Image credit: Ubisoft) With no crew to rely on and barely anyStar Wars Outlaws creditsto 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 underworld 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 crossing the leader of the dominant Zerek Besh syndicate, and eventually the likes of the Pyke Syndicate, Hutt Cartel, and the Empire. In ourStar Wars Outlaws review, we praised González’s portrayal of Kay, and you can also see how Outlaws stacks up in our list of thebest Star Wars games.© GamesRadar+.
