Why Star Wars Outlaws won't come to PS4 and Xbox One: Possible reason explored

It seems like Ubisoft is set to move away from older consoles, as similar to Star Wars Outlaws, AC Shadows will also skip the PS4 and Xbox One. It's mainly due to the limitations of older hardware. Massive Entertainment, the developer plans on utilizing the full potential of its Snowdrop engine and the SSD of current-gen consoles to facilitate seamless loading of the game's environments.

Even porting the game to older hardware can create problems for the developers, which will mean more resources being utilized in developing a new build instead of focusing on polishing the game. Whatever the reason is, Star Wars Outlaws will not see a release on PS4 and Xbox One, at least during its official launch on August 30, 2024.
