The Recreation Awards contained many surprises, however this one genuinely caught me off guard: a brand new racing sport set within the Star Wars universe. However maybe probably the most baffling a part of the announcement is that not a single pod racer was proven.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer is scheduled for launch someday in 2026 for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation and would be the debut title of Fuse Video games, a studio based in 2023 by a bunch of former Criterion builders.
There will likely be a single-player marketing campaign that includes a brand new character referred to as Shade. “No Power. No prophecy. Simply ability, technique, and the desire to rise,” says the sport’s web page, nearly gently mocking the usual Star Wars template.
“STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™ is a runs-based, high-stakes reinvention of racing born within the lawless Outer Rim. With the Empire gone and the galaxy rebuilding, The Galactic League is created: an underground, unsanctioned circuit the place syndicates bankroll chaos and champions are cast,” says the official Steam web page.
Autos embody landspeers and hoverbikes, however unusually not a single pod racer was proven or talked about. However we did get to see Sebulba pop up on the very finish of the trailer, so I’m holding fingers crossed that pod racing will likely be within the sport. If it isn’t, what are we even doing?
