Get your dealing hands ready, as Star Wars Outlaws will let us all participate in a round of Sabacc or two.
First spotted by ComicBook, the game’s description on the ESRB ratings board reveals that “players can wager in-game currency on Sabacc”, which is described as “a blackjack-like card game with detailed rules”.
This is more than likely the gambling referred to in South Korea’s own ratings board listing, which resulted in Star Wars Outlaws getting slapped with an adults-only badge. I know, I know. Just call me Clouseau.
While Sabacc is a well-known game within the Star Wars universe, and appears in books and other media dating back several decades, its video game appearances thus far have been fairly slim. In fact, other than being able to play a few hands in The Sims 4’s Journey to Batuu expansion and a casual mention in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, I can’t think of any other time it has appeared in a video game, let alone been playable.
