Outer Rim Racing Returns in Star Wars: Galactic Racer This October

May 1, 2026 Marc Szymanski

Prepare to enter the lawless Outer Rim in Star Wars: Galactic Racer, a new racing adventure from developer Fuse Games and publisher Secret Mode. Releasing October 6, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the game follows a mysterious pilot named Shade within the competitive Galactic League. Unlike traditional tales in this galaxy, the experience focuses purely on piloting talent and vehicle strategy rather than prophecies. Players can experiment with three distinct styles of repulsorcraft and even return to the iconic podracer class to prove their worth. Because the campaign emphasizes forged alliances and reignited rivalries, every race serves as a chance to settle old grudges while rising through the ranks of the unsanctioned circuit.

The gameplay challenges pilots to shunt, slam, and takedown rivals across high-stakes, runs-based sessions. Specifically, you can customize build strategies for landspeeders, speeder bikes, and skim speeders to create the ultimate vehicle for both local and online multiplayer. Pre-orders are available now for standard, deluxe, and physical collector’s editions, offering various bonus liveries and digital art books. Furthermore, the deluxe and collector’s versions provide access to exclusive arcade events and unique vehicles to test your skills. Consequently, Star Wars: Galactic Racer offers a gritty, skill-focused look at the galaxy’s underground racing scene where only the most determined pilots will survive.

What We Can Expect

Thrilling Singleplayer Campaign: Step into the cockpit as Shade to navigate a story filled with dangerous alliances and intense rivalries.
Iconic Vehicle Classes: Master the controls of podracers, landspeeders, and speeder bikes, each requiring unique strategies and builds.
Competitive Multiplayer: Take your talents online to compete against other pilots in the Galactic League and prove you are the elite of the Outer Rim.
Multiple Editions: Choose between standard, deluxe, or a physical collector’s edition featuring a model of the Kor Sarun: Darc X landspeeder.

My Thoughts

Come on! It’s Star Wars!! If you’re a fan, even a minor fan, I couldn’t imagine a world where you wouldn’t want to play Star Wars: Galactic Racer. Fast paced racing action with a campaign mode along with the vehicles that we know and love. You can guarantee, with the Lucasfilm stamp on it, there will be plenty of iconic locations and easter eggs scattered among the galaxy. I’ll have mine pre-ordered. How about you?
