Star Wars Outlaws, developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft, introduces an Explorer Mode allowing players to turn off the guiding yellow paint on navigational elements. This feature caters to those who find such guidance too intrusive while still considering accessibility for others. Explorer Mode, reminiscent of options available in recent Assassin’s Creed games, addresses the gaming community's ongoing debate about in-game guidance and player autonomy. Additionally, the game incorporates vast open worlds, with three out of five planets being traversable in under five minutes on a speeder.
