Star Wars Outlaws Smuggler’s Hideout location and rewards

Sometimes Intel in Star Wars Outlaws won't have a marked location on the map, and one of the first unmarked quests you'll find on Toshara is the Smuggler's Hideout.

You can find Intel all over the place in Star Wars Outlaws, but it won’t always mark new locations on your map. Sometimes, rumors and leads will only give you vague hints about the locations of items and resources, leaving you on your own to discover secret locations on each planet throughout the galaxy. The Smuggler’s Hideout is one of the earliest instances of this.

Where to find the Smuggler’s Hideout in Star Wars Outlaws

You can find Intel regarding the Smuggler’s Hideout on a data pad in Crimson Dawn territory in Mirogana on Toshara, the first planet in the game. It tells you that there’s a Smuggler’s Hideout in a mountain southwest of Typhon’s Rock, but where exactly do you need to go?

As the Intel suggests, the Smuggler’s Hideout is located southwest of Typhon’s Rock. The Typhon’s Rock landmark is located in The Lost Steppe region of Toshara, west of Mirogana and just a short speeder ride southeast of Jaunta’s Hope.

Make your way to Typhon’s Rock and then head off the road to the southwest to find a small mountain with speeder paths cutting through it. You’ll know you’re in the right place if you see metal plates on the floor and light poles strewn about the caverns. You can see the exact location of the cave on the map below.

You can find a few resources inside the cave, but the real treasure can be found hidden along a path near the top of the mountain. There are multiple paths to the top, so just follow the metal grates on the ground and keep climbing. Eventually, you’ll find a small chest buried in an alcove along the path at the top of the mountain.

This chest is Smuggler Cache 52, which is what the Smuggler’s Hideout Intel was directing you to all along. Inside, you’ll find a bunch of Credits and some rare upgrade materials. Pro tip: It’s much easier to find this chest (and any hidden Smuggler Caches) at night since there are usually lights to help guide you.

Unfortunately, there seems to be a bug involving Smuggler Cache 52 where the Smuggler’s Hideout Intel will not be marked as complete after opening the chest. While all of our PC Invasion writers have collected this Smuggler Cache, the Intel is still active in some of our quest logs. It’s frustrating, but at least you can rest knowing that you’re not going crazy if you can’t get the Smuggler’s Hideout marked off your Intel list. A future patch will inevitably fix this.

This isn’t the only instance of unmarked Intel in Star Wars Outlaws, so be prepared to search all over Toshara and other planets to find hidden chests tucked away in random spots. The Crashed Speeder Intel is another example of a quest that’s driving players mad, for example.
