Dear Reader:
Rebel Galaxy Outlaw's Switch port is complete, DLC in the works
Good news all around on the Switch port of Rebel Galaxy Outlaw. Developer Double Damage Games has confirmed that work on the port is now complete, which means they can shift over to approval and release! If things go well, we could be playing this game in just a matter of weeks.
Along with that, the dev team also confirmed that Rebel Galaxy Outlaw will get DLC across all platforms. You can see the official comments from the dev team on both release plans and DLC below.
Right now, porting of Rebel Galaxy Outlaw to all three consoles is completed. We’re excited to confirm we now have ratings – a PEGI 16 for European territories, and a provisional T for Teen from the ESRB. Now that this is completed, we can move on to getting the game approved by Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony – and we’re excited to have already submitted to Nintendo, with the other two versions following as soon as the last couple bugs are squished. The Lotcheck/Certification process has also seen delays, as many of you have no doubt noticed, with the flood of revised release date announcements coming from companies large and small.
Right now, we’d love to be optimistic and nail down a specific month when the console version will be docking onto your favourite platform, but there’s so much up in the air we couldn’t even begin to guess. We can share that we’ll move from approval to launch fairly quickly — there will be a fairly short turn-around of two to three weeks from when the games pass to when they’ll be available for sale.
We’ve been getting a lot of questions about potential DLC coming to Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, and we’re pleased to confirm that more content will be coming to all versions of the game. We’re still finalizing the timeline on these updates (Late 2020? Early 2021?), but the plan continues to be for this to arrive on PC first. Currently this is to be a mix of paid and free updates.
