Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

It feels like we’ve had so little in the way of Star Wars video games, it’s almost shocking and overwhelming we’ll have two giant releases out within just over a month of each other later this year! At Summer Games Fest, the replacement for the old E3 gaming event, we got brand new looks at Galactic Racer, which we just got release date/pre-order information and a trailer for not too long ago, and finally another, deeper look at Zero Company, including its newly announced August 27 release date! You can see Zero Company‘s new trailer above, but head below for new details about it and Galactic Racer, plus the racing game’s new trailer, as well as a hint one long ago announced game is still on the way.

Video Game News: Galactic Racer Releasing October 6, Fornite Star Wars Expansions, And More!

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

Ahead of 2026’s May the Fourth celebrations, we got some great news: the confirmation of Galactic Racer‘s October 6 release date! Only three days before my birthday?! The little 9 year old Episode 1: Racer fan can’t believe we’re so back!! Alongside the release date, Galactic Racer received a new gameplay-centric trailer, including plenty of podracing action, as well as details regarding what pre-order bonuses come with what special edition. The Collector’s Edition, physical only, comes with a landspeeder model?! Oh no, sorry wallet. Beyond news about Galactic Racer, Fortnite revealed new Star Wars modes coming May 1, like Galactic Siege (which is giving me Battlefront vibes), Escape Vader, and Droid Tycoon, with more special features on the way. Head below to read more about Galactic Racer‘s editions, Fornite‘s Star Wars stuff, a new Star Wars Monopoly, and more!

Video Game News: Galactic Racer Gameplay Trailer Debuts, Teases Podracing

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

Honestly, the more we see of Galactic Racer, I need it injected straight into me veins! Star Wars hasn’t had a great racing game in quite some time and I can only replay Episode 1: Racer so many times, so I’m really hoping how fun and engaging Galactic Racer looks in these trailers translates into when we get to play it. Given Fuse Games’ workers backgrounds, it certainly seems like we’ll be in store for quite the ride when this drops sometime in 2026 (was hoping for a date reveal, but maybe with next trailer). The kinetic feel of the races, the gorgeous details and landscapes, and the destructive system are itching all the right spots, so hopefully that release date comes sooner than later. The new gameplay trailer ends with the briefest tease of podracing in action, showing Sebulba chasing down poor Ben Quadinaros (sorry, not the Ben everyone was hoping would come back, but this one has his fans too!), and I might just be finally okay with putting Episode 1: Racer down. Head below for two screengrabs of Sebulba’s return and a new poster! Continue reading “Video Game News: Galactic Racer Gameplay Trailer Debuts, Teases Podracing” →

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

Two spiritual successor games announced in one night? And both spiritually succeeding some of Star Wars’ gaming greats? The Video Game Awards for 2025 held two Star Wars game reveals, and while one is much further away than the other, both are several layers of hype-tastic. For starters, there’s Galactic Racer, scheduled to be out in 2026, which brings multi-vehicle racing to post-Return of the Jedi setting. And then an even more stunning surprise: Fate of the Old Republic, developed by some of the people behind Knights of the Old Republic, bringing the era back to fans for a new generation, though its release is a little further off. Check out the trailers, screenshots, and additional details below!! Continue reading “Video Game News: Fate of the Old Republic and Galactic Racer Announced!” →

Deeper Glimpse of Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay Stirs Hype and Hope

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

While we’re getting closer and closer to August 30, the release date of Star Wars Outlaws, everything I keep seeing, especially today’s new footage from the Ubisoft Forward 2024 showcase, makes August feel so much further away! We got two new sets of footage, the first being a general gameplay overview that’s almost 4 minutes long (see above!), and then there’s the lengthy 10 minute slice (see below the cut), which gives us a better look at specifics, like the heads-up-display (HUD), the very seamless transitions from ships to planets, and the “Experts” system. So check out the lengthier section and some impressions below! Continue reading “Deeper Glimpse of Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay Stirs Hype and Hope” →

Star Wars Outlaws Story Trailer Promises Grand Adventures, Reveals August 30 Release Date!

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

After the gameplay walkthrough video released alongside its announcement back in June 2023, I didn’t really need to see more to be convinced I was going to get Star Wars Outlaws when it releases. The latest lowdown on the game, a story trailer, an August 30 release date, and pre-order bonuses came in handy for my confirmation bias about how good this game really looks. The tenacious Kay Vess, her adorable merqaal Nix, and enforcer droid ND-5 mixing it up with the galactic underworld elite, all to secure her freedom to start a new life, and doing so in scoundrel-ific fashion, visiting locales like Akiva, Toshara, and returning to her home of Cantonica’s Canto Bight…what more could you want?! Head below for a little breakdown of the trailer, a few screengrabs, details on the pre-order options (and how much they’ll set you back credits-wise), and more!

Gaming News: Battlefront Classic Collection Arrives March 15!

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

When the original Battlefront I and II released in the early ‘00’s, while I was playing many video games at that time as I transitioned from grade school to high school, these Star Wars gaming classics consumed much of my time. I tried revisiting Battlefront II on PC (I played them on PlayStation back in the day), ahead of Battlefront II’s (2017) release, and it didn’t quite click like it used to, but it might’ve been more me than how the game had aged. Regardless, they have a special spot in my heart and the announcement of the Battlefront Classic Collection has me excited to try them again when they launch on March 15, with tons of extra content and the multiplayer servers open and ready for battle again. I might not have as much time as I did in 2004/5 to play these now, but if you’re on PlayStation, I’m a trusty fighter to have by your side so make sure to friend me: BrushYourTeeth. Head below for more details and a few screenshots of the updated action! Continue reading “Gaming News: Battlefront Classic Collection Arrives March 15!” →
