At The Game Awards, Lucasfilm Reveals Star Wars: Galactic Racer for 2026

Built by Fuse Games veterans of Burnout plus Need for Speed, the new racer spotlights a crime‑funded Outer Rim league with a no‑Force, skill‑first focus.

Overview

  • An announcement trailer introduced Star Wars: Galactic Racer, confirming the project from Lucasfilm Games and Fuse Games.
  • The game targets a 2026 launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
  • Single‑player centers on Shade rising through the illicit Galactic League while clashing with rival Kestar after the Empire’s fall.
  • Multiplayer PvP features player‑built repulsorcraft, distinct vehicle classes with unique physics, customization, takedowns, reputation, and unlockable abilities.
  • The experience is described as runs‑based with high‑risk races, and the reveal nods to franchise history with Sebulba’s return.
