Developer Fuse Games and publisher Secret Mode have together confirmed the Star Wars: Galactic Racer release date, and it’s October 6th.
Pre-orders for Star Wars: Galactic Racer are open as of today as well, and there will be digital standard and digital deluxe editions, as well as a physical collector’s edition for all three formats. No word on a Switch 2 version as of yet, it seems.
If you do pre-order you’ll get a free livery usable on your speeder bikes, skim speeders, and land speeders which has a “unique colour” depending on which format you pre-ordered on. On top of that, all pre-orders come with a “free Player Banner background” for use in multiplayer.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer invites race fans to join the Galactic League, an unsanctioned racing circuit born in the lawless Outer Rim of the Star Wars galaxy. Step into the cockpit as mysterious pilot Shade in a thrilling singleplayer campaign where alliances will be forged, rivalries reignited, and old grudges will be settled. Experiment with your build strategies across three distinct styles of repulsorcraft to create your ultimate vehicle. Get behind the controls of podracers and put your skills to the test in this iconic vehicle class. Take your talents online in exciting multiplayer races to prove yourself as an elite racing pilot. No Force. No prophecy. Just skill, strategy, and the will to rise.
