The trailer for Star War’s Outlaws‘ DLC A Pirate’s Fortune seems to have been published early by accident and revealed a release date: May 15, 2025. Ubisoft has already taken down the leaked trailer, but not before fans snapped plenty of screenshots. Better yet, a demo for Star Wars Outlaws is also available starting today on the Epic Games Store, as well as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series. Unfortunately, your save will not carry over to the game, if you choose to purchase it after trying it out.

The demo features roughly three hours of non-consecutive gameplay, letting players experience different aspects of the game. It’s not just a few hours at the start, so it makes sense that the saved data won’t transfer.

As for the DLC, if you missed the trailer, don’t worry: it will drop in full tomorrow, April 18, as part of Star Wars Celebration. This is the second DLC for Star Wars Outlaws, following the story of the first expansion Wild Card. Players will get to meet back up with Hondo Ohnaka once more to take on Stinger Tash and the Rokana Raiders.

The trailer didn’t reveal much in the way of story, but we do know the expansion will add more cosmetic items into the game inspired by Star Wars: Skeleton Crew. Players will get a new outfit for Nix, trinkets, and more.

A Pirate’s Fortune is the final planned DLC for Star Wars Outlaws, and it’s unlikely that Ubisoft will follow up with more content after its own admission that the game didn’t perform up to expectations. However, Ubisoft recently announced that Outlaws will launch on the Nintendo Switch 2, and it’s possible there could be console-specific content reserved for that launch.

Forget console wars. Steam Machine may help kill lazy PC gaming ports

Valve’s expensive mini PC could become PC gaming’s new baseline

Steam Machine with Steam Controller

Valve’s Steam Machine has become easy to dunk on. The price starts well above current consoles, and the hardware sits somewhere between entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs rather than a monster rig. Early reviews have also talked about how demanding games need upscaling, trimmed settings, and realistic expectations.

With the ongoing memory crisis, it sounds like a rough time to bring a PC to the couch. Though the Steam Machine doesn't need to beat high-end gaming PCs or the big consoles. Its purpose was different from the start. And what really makes it better is how it could shift the PC gaming segment entirely.

GTA 6 may not get the real physical release fans were hoping for

The game may come in a case, but not on a disc

Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders recently went live, but the excitement came with one frustrating catch. The so-called physical edition of the game will not include a disc. Instead, buyers will get a box with cover art and a download code inside.

That decision immediately caused backlash online, especially among collectors who still care about owning games on disc. For a while, there was some hope that this would only be temporary. Reports suggested that Rockstar could release a proper disc version of GTA 6 in December 2026, giving physical media fans something to wait for.

The Steam Machine launch hasn’t even happened, but the resale circus has begun

Scalpers are already trying to cash in on Valve’s Steam Machine

Valve has started sending out reservation emails for the Steam Machine ahead of its June 30 launch, and scalpers have wasted no time turning the whole thing into a comedy act.

The Steam Machine is already an expensive device, as RAM and SSD prices have made hardware pricing miserable across the industry. Valve has previously said it would like to lower the price if component costs improve. That makes the resale listings even harder to take seriously, because the official price was already higher than many people expected before scalpers added their own fantasy tax.
