Star Wars: Galactic Racer Announced, From Former Burnout and Need For Speed Developers | The Game Awards 2025

Star Wars: Galactic Racer offers a new runs-based racing game with single-player and PvP modes, launching on PC and consoles in 2026, blending podracing spirit with fresh gameplay.

  • Announced at The Game Awards 2025, Lucasfilm and Fuse Games revealed Star Wars: Galactic Racer, due in 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC, published by Secret Mode.
  • Set after the fall of the Empire, the game places players in The Galactic League, an unsanctioned circuit in the lawless Outer Rim bankrolled by criminal syndicates where Shade faces rival Kester/Kestar.
  • Gameplay combines a campaign and multiplayer, offering Galactic Racer's story-driven single-player alongside PvP modes where players build repulsorcraft with distinct vehicle physics racing on Jakku-like desert tracks.
  • That pedigree ties Galactic Racer to earlier Star Wars racers and Fuse Games founders, former Criterion co-founders and lead developers, continue the Star Wars racing legacy with a new entry next year.
  • Described as runs-based, the game aims to reinvent racing with dynamic risk-reward choices and an adventurous approach, Lucasfilm and Fuse Games framed Galactic Racer as a high-stakes Outer Rim reinvention.
