Star Wars: Galactic Racer Reveals Official Gameplay Trailer

by

A new trailer for Star Wars: Galactic Racer is out, showing a thrilling racing game where players compete in the dangerous Outer Rim.

Launching on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC in 2026, this new game moves away from the traditional Star Wars elements like Jedi, Sith, and lightsabers. Instead, it focuses on fast-paced action and illegal racing. The core idea is simple: it’s all about player skill, smart tactics, and staying alive – there’s no reliance on the Force or destiny.

Watch below.

Set After The Fall Of The Empire

Following the Empire’s defeat, the galaxy is in a period of rebuilding under the New Republic. However, with the old order gone, a wave of chaos has emerged, and the Outer Rim is experiencing a surge in risky activities like gambling and extreme sports.

From the chaos emerged the Galactic League, a high-stakes racing circuit funded by influential criminal organizations. Wealth is won and lost in an instant, and only the most daring racers can hope to succeed.

This isn’t podracing. This is criminal-funded, reputation-driven, high-stakes competition.

Meet Shade And Kestar

The story follows Shade, a solitary racer driven by a desire for both victory and payback. For him, the racing League isn’t just a competition—it’s a chance to take control of his future.

The main obstacle is Kestar, a fierce competitor who also wants to lead the League. The story campaign seems to revolve around their conflict, as players will need to team up and fight their way through increasingly challenging situations.

Runs-Based Racing With Tactical Depth

Star Wars: Galactic Racer offers a unique racing experience where each race unfolds differently. It’s designed so that no two races are exactly alike.

Tracks offer varied paths, evolving surroundings, choices with consequences, and different experiences each time you play.

Going fast isn’t enough to win. Successful racers need to master the track, handle risks, and know when to accelerate and when to slow down.

Players can choose from a variety of repulsorcraft, each with unique controls and strengths in combat. You can customize your craft, unlock new skills with every playthrough, and use powerful attacks to defeat enemies strategically.

Campaign And Multiplayer

The game features an evolving story where you’ll race, disrupt opponents, and fight to stay alive. As your League gains power, you decide which challenges to take on.

Competitive multiplayer is also confirmed, allowing racers to battle for supremacy online.

A Different Kind Of Star Wars Game

Unlike most Star Wars games and movies, Star Wars: Galactic Racer doesn’t involve Jedi or a hero’s journey. Instead, it’s all about the exciting world of underground racing in a galaxy moving on from the Empire.

It’s gritty, mechanical, and competitive.

Wishlist options are now live ahead of its 2026 release on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
