On the livestreaming service Kick, gameplay of Star Wars Outlaws has been streamed a full week before its official release, which doesn’t come out until August 30.
The streamer account with the username “thisisnotanaccount” has had their stream turned on and off over the past day according to Reddit Users. As of this writing, “thisisnotanaccount” has yet to be banned and viewers spoke of the gameplay shown being major story spoilers. Clips and videos from the stream have been making the rounds on other platforms such as TikTok.
Twitch and YouTube streaming have quickly banned accounts or taken faster measures to mitigate circumstances such as this–even a Twitter/X account exists for updating users about which Twitch users are banned, with timestamps–but Kick will “terminate accounts in cases of repeated violations” and “ban individuals and accounts for more severe violations” as per its community guidelines. It seems that Kick may not deem this leaker as causing “severe violations,” since the account still exists, with more than 20 followers, as well.
This also is not the first time Star Wars Outlaws gameplay has been leaked online. Several months ago, an almost-15-minute video of Star Wars Outlaws gameplay was uploaded to YouTube before Ubisoft had it taken down swiftly. Viewers had said this video was extremely light on story spoilers.
