The TIE Interceptor is a fighter ship of the Galactic Empire in Star Wars Outlaws. See where to find TIE Interceptors in this guide!

Where to Find TIE Interceptors

Raise Wanted Level in Space

TIE Interceptors will spawn by raising your Wanted Level to at least level 3. Simply approach a station and defeat TIE Interceptors to maintain and increase your Wanted Level.

We recommend doing this method in Toshara Orbit at Fuel Station Visavi, since it's relatively near the planet. Once you are done, you can remove your Wanted Status at the nearby Imperial Terminal.

Found Fighting Syndicate Ships in Akiva Orbit

TIE Interceptor Location (Akiva)

TIE Interceptors can be found in Akiva Orbit. While cruising towards Kinro Comet, you can find TIE Interceptors fighting other Syndicate ships. This is a random encounter though, so there's a chance they won't spawn there.

Note Difference with TIE Fighters

TIE Interceptor

TIE Fighter

You can differentiate TIE Fighters and TIE Interceptors based on their wing shapes. TIE Fighters have a vertically-shaped wing, while TIE Interceptors have more horizontally-oriented wings that point towards the front.

Check the Top Center of the Screen

You can identify ships from much farther distances by checking the top center of the screen when a target is present.

It is recommended to check enemy types this way to avoid getting too close to ships, especially against already hostile ones.
