Star Wars Outlaws Slicing Explained

As one of the various Star Wars Outlaws mini-games, you’ll have to get to grips with Slicing if you’re going to unlock everything the vast open-world game has to offer. Though it may seem like a complex task on the surface, it’s deceptively simple once you get to grips with it. So, without further ado, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of what Slicing is and how to get it down to a fine art.

Star Wars Outlaws Slicing explained

Star Wars Outlaws Slicing is a glyph-matching activity that follows a Wordle-like format. You’ll have an allotted amount of attempts to slot the correct glyphs into the appropriate order. Glyphs that are placed correctly will turn blue when submitted, while glyphs that are in the pattern albeit in the wrong position will turn yellow. Glyphs that aren’t present in the combination at all will turn red, with a big cross appearing over it. To stop you from accidentally reattempting to use a dead glyph, the RPG game will remove it from the selectable options altogether.
As with Star Wars Outlaws lockpicking, Ubisoft has baked in a much-welcomed accessibility setting that swaps out the abstract glyph shapes for numbers. Though the glyphs are discernible enough from one another for most, this option is great if you have, for example, a hard time separating patterns, are visually impaired, or simply wish to simplify the experience.
And that’s all you need to know about Star Wars Outlaws Slicing. Kay’s life is dangerous, and being on the move can be the difference between life and death, so check out the Star Wars Outlaws Trailblazer upgrades so you’re never caught short in orbit.
