LucasArts’ Outlaws was released in 1997 on Windows PC and went on to become critically acclaimed and beloved by fans of the FPS game genre thanks to a riveting story, soundtrack, and gunplay inspired by the great Westerns of our time. Outlaws + Handful of Missions: Remaster from Nightdive Studios brings the classic game and its expansion to Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo consoles for the first time.
“Following our release of Star Wars™: Dark Forces Remaster last year, we are overjoyed to continue our relationship and work closely with the amazing team at Lucasfilm Games,” said Stephen Kick, Nightdive’s Studio Head. “The influence of the original Outlaws + Handful of Missions on the FPS genre cannot be overstated, in terms of gameplay and narrative prowess. We’re honored to help bring this iconic Western adventure to modern audiences.”
Get ready for the good, the bad, and the even worse. One black day, ex-Marshall James Anderson’s quiet life with his wife and daughter was shattered by a fancy-dressed land baron intent on plowing down his farm to make way for a railroad. Now Anderson's driven by revenge, which he'll exact in a spray of gunfire. As the ex-Marshall, you'll face a horde of ornery, gun-slinging outlaws and have to shoot your way through a twisted plot fueled by greed. Arm yourself with the iron best suited for the job, as well as your wits, to settle the score.
