1. A Deep Dive into the Star Wars Outlaws Ending
In the Star Wars novel Outlaws, readers follow the journey of Kay Vess, a skilled and fearless thief, and her trusty partner Nix, a cunning merqaal, as they navigate the criminal underworld of Canto Bight. In this dangerous world, Kay’s past and present intersect, leading to unexpected consequences.
In summary, here is a brief recap and final conclusion of the events that ultimately led to the ending of Star Wars Outlaws.
1. The Truth About Sliro
The climax of Star Wars Outlaws is set in motion during the mission ‘The Truth,’ as Kay and Riko successfully infiltrate an Imperial vessel in order to acquire Sliro’s access codes. However, Kay inadvertently overhears a conversation between Sliro and Vail, which takes an unexpected turn with the arrival of Darth Vader.
This confrontation reveals that Sliro is actually an ISB agent who has been working undercover for the Empire. He has been using the Zerek Besh crime syndicate as a disguise to identify and capture Rebel soldiers. The Empire has been providing Sliro with resources, manpower, and advanced technology in secret, which explains the syndicate’s impressive abilities and why Asara is being held captive.
Despite this, Vader voices his discontent with Sliro’s performance and warns of potential repercussions if Zerek Besh does not produce satisfactory results. This revelation carries significant weight, especially considering the ISB’s role as the Empire’s covert intelligence organization and the underlying loyalties of Zerek Besh and Sliro, ultimately leading to the ultimate showdown.
2. The Devil in the Details
After the successful heist, the true nature of their loot is revealed to Kay and her team, marking the second major plot twist. Instead of the expected Beskar, Riko stumbles upon a codex containing highly sensitive Imperial information, exposing Jaylen’s true intentions.
His intention was to utilize the codex in order to overthrow Sliro, seize command of the Zerek Besh, and then present it to Darth Vader as a demonstration of his loyalty.
Despite Riko’s revelation as Jaylen’s accomplice, she persistently tries to persuade Kay to accept the situation. However, Kay remains steadfast in her refusal, resulting in her being rendered unconscious. She and Asara are then transported to the Imperial star destroyer, The Revelator, along with the codex.
A Tale of Two Brothers
In a surprising twist, Kay learns about Jaylen’s connection to Sliro when she secretly attends a meeting between Vader and Sliro. Jaylen confesses his intention to seek retribution against his own brother, Sliro, who had ruthlessly killed their family out of envy and a thirst for control.
Jaylen was born into a family of great wealth and power, as they were the owners of star destroyer factories. However, their family’s downfall was caused by Sliro’s betrayal. Now, driven by ambition and a thirst for revenge, Jaylen is determined to overthrow Sliro and reclaim control of the Zerek Besh.
This revelation ultimately turns Jaylen into the ultimate antagonist in Star Wars Outlaws, leading to his brother’s death with the assistance of ND-5 and fulfilling his desire for vengeance.
Episode 4: Ending with a Big Bang
Upon learning that the Empire has located the Rebel Allies, Kay quickly gathers her crew and enlists the help of her syndicate allies to launch a daring counterattack. With her expert skills, she successfully disables the Star Destroyer’s defenses, leading to a catastrophic reactor explosion as the Rebels make their escape.
As the heist concludes, the crew heads back to Bram’s bar in Canto Bight, where their adventure initially began. A short epilogue offers a glimpse into the future of each crew member, tying up loose ends and providing a sense of resolution to their individual journeys.
- Ank and Gedeek solidify their partnership with Kay, bonding over their shared love of explosives.
- Asara makes a final attempt to recruit Kay to the Rebel cause, but she declines, and he returns to Akiva.
- Bram shares a heartfelt moment with Kay, reaffirming his support and offering her a place to call home.
- Vail, redeemed by her last-minute help, receives the codex from Kay and sets out to establish her syndicate, inviting Kay to join her.
- Despite being offered, Kay declines and decides to continue her journey with Nix and ND-5, who is now a free droid.
Despite the dispersal of her allies, Kay Vess and ND-5 remain the central members of the Trailblazer crew, prepared for their upcoming journey.
5. Like Mother, Like Daughter
The mid-credit scene serves as a powerful ending to Kay’s journey as she faces her mother, Riko, in an Imperial prison. Riko, who was deceived by Jaylen’s counterfeit currency, is taken aback by Kay’s surprise appearance, masquerading as an Imperial officer.
During their tense conversation, Kay learns that the poker chip given to her by Riko was actually a tracking device, indicating that her mother was secretly worried about her. In return for this loyalty, Kay replaces the chip with a lock-pick, enabling Riko to flee. This bittersweet reunion alludes to the intricate and ever-changing dynamic between the two.
Kay’s adventure is still ongoing, as there are currently two additional story expansions in progress. These expansions will include exciting collaborations with both Lando Calrissian and Hondo Ohnaka, and are scheduled for release in the upcoming seasons of Fall 2024 and Spring 2025.
