Serial modder Luke Ross has released a new VR mod for the PC version of Star Wars Outlaws (2024).

Ross has been keeping up with the latest game releases it seems. Released only on August 30th, you can now play Star Wars Outlaws in VR.

Granted, the 6DOF mod uses gamepad and not VR controllers as such, and is probably best played in third-person, although you can adjust the camera to give some pretty great first-person views.

Check out YouTuber ‘Lord Beardsteak’ below make their away around Tatooine, showing off some the game’s impressive open-world environments:

If you haven’t had a chance to jump into Star Wars Outlaws, here’s how Ubisoft describes it:

Experience the first-ever open world Star Wars™ game, set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Explore distinct locations across the galaxy, both iconic and new. Risk it all as Kay Vess, a scoundrel seeking freedom and the means to start a new life, along with her companion Nix. Fight, steal, and outwit your way through the galaxy’s crime syndicates as you join the galaxy’s most wanted.

Like with many of Luke Ross’ R.E.A.L. VR mods, you’ll have to join their Patreon to get access, which starts at $10 per month. Once you join the Patreon, you’ll find documentation on how to install the mods (basically drag and drop) as well as suggested specs. Spoiler: you’ll need a beefy rig for almost any of Ross’ mods.

    This guy still charging for his mods?
    LMAO.
    Disney, where you at?

    • ViRGiN

      Effort deserves reward, do I work for free? Perhaps I'm claiming social and just sit all day in my bedroom trollololing, demonstrating all the hallmarks of a incel- yeah, that sounds about right.

        "Effort deserves reward"… My ass !!
        Mods are supposed to be free, is that so hard to understand ?
        Luke Ross is a fucking scam that make a lot of money on the game developper's back. Don't be surprised if some day editors forbid mods bcs of rats like Ross.

        • david vincent

          Even worse, you have to pay Ross again each time one of your game is updated and breaks its mod

        • Markis

          Mods are supposed to be free? Says who exactly?

          If you feel it should be free then don't pay, which means you don't access the paid ones you disagree with. If you take issue with them existing but don't think they're worth paying that sounds like mental illness at that point.

          Mods aren't always easy work.

        Forget to change to your sock puppet?

        • ViRGiN

          it's an imposter

          • Storymode Chronicles

            Ah, so it is. I wonder, if imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, what is identity theft?

          • ViRGiN

            Some people are just mad I told them the truth about Valve not being interested in VR at all years ago, and they are all feeling it now. Super hard to swallow red pills.

          • Storymode Chronicles

            Well, that can't be it because Valve is not a cohesive organization capable of collective action. It can be neither interested nor disinterested in something, but only a hive of incongruous parts capable of serendipidously coalescing to almost accidentally create a consumer product.

            One of the charms of being an organization with no managers. I'm sure somewhere in the bowels of Valve there's a few nerds whose greatest passion is creating the coolest VR tech on earth, perhaps Deckard or some such, but only history will tell if it ever bubbles to the surface as anything real.

            You don't understand how corporations work if you honestly believe that nonsense. Any company that disorganized would collapse in months.

          • You really need to learn that your opinion is not fact. But then,. 12 year-olds are difficult to train.

          • ViRGiN

            Who takes an advice from an incel like you?

  • Shad Daffucup

    I'd rather strap a hungry rat to my face than subject it to this trash fire excuse for a game. No thank you.

  • eadVrim

    The best 2D game to VR mod I have tried so far is Resident Evil Praydog Mod

  • 3872Orcs

    Very tempting! But I preferably want the game on Steam, so I'll try and hold back and wait.

    I love that we have all these options now with the general flat2vr modding community, including Luke Ross and UEVR. This has somewhat made up for the big game studios and publishers ditching us or downright ignoring the VR players. Now I get to play their games anyway! :)

    • Hussain X

      So has Steam ditched the PCVR players despite making billions off the store every year. They take 30% off devs hard work just for hosting files. Why not give the 30% to the devs who are taking the risk? Ubisoft has made a lot of VR games and they have also sufferred financially so why not support them by buying directly on Ubisoft and give them that 30%?

      OK you maybe don't want lots of launchers and Ubisoft only has a handful of games. But you know it's also available on Epic store too. Maybe Epic store did a deal where Ubisoft keeps a lot of the money and not have to pay the full 30%. So it's good for the devs that Epic store is around and to be able to strike such deals. The extra money can then ensure Ubisoft is around to develop more games. Unlike Steam who takes out billions from gaming in profits, who ditched PCVR with now Meta propping up PCVR indirectly, as well as letting HTC fail in PCVR consumer hardware market by not subsidising the Vive (when they were partners) from the software sales it benefited from the usage of the Vive hardware on Steam, until at least PCVR market grew in decent size to be self sustainable.

        Steam = incurable cancer.
        Gayben = obese monster

  • david vincent

    Yay, a clunky VR mod for a clunky game…

    • VRDeveloper – The real sigma

      Agora voce pode experienciar a falta de polimento dos jogos da Ubisoft em 3D, e voces ainda reclamam por pagar?, ainda mais pra jogar um jogo que de acordo com a propria Ubisoft é: "AAAA 4A GAME!!!"

  • spirr9986

    If it's something I like and want, I by no means do not mind paying for it. (one time Fee) But to have to pay someone a monthly fee. No way Jose

    • ViRGiN

      Keeping mods like this behind paywall is no-no; optional donations should be encouraged.

      But I guess Luke Ross is not an idiot, and he knows that among PCVR crowd that if something is free, people won't donate.

      • spirr9986

        I and I think a lot of other people would just like to buy the mod. a one-time fee, but monthly is a hard pill to swallow

        • NL_VR

          You dont need to pay monthly.
          you can pay one time then download the mod(s) and then unsubscribe

  • VR5

    I'd be interested in a Immortal Fenix Rising mod.

    That's one way to improve the attractiveness of the character.
