Get your pulse racing as you blaze across some of the most hostile terrain in the galaxy in the Story Trailer for Star Wars: Galactic Racer, the latest adrenaline-fuelled adventure from Fuse Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games.
Racers, start your engines. From the legendary Boonta Eve Classic to the endless dunes of Jakku, it’s time to put the pedal to the metal in Star Wars: Galactic Racer. The hottest new racing game in the galaxy is speeding out of the Outer Rim later this year, and the team behind the title has now unveiled its action-packed official story trailer.
The high-octane teaser showcases an array of daring racers piloting landspeeders and speeder bikes across some of the Star Wars universe’s most iconic worlds, including Jakku and Ando Prime. Packed with blistering speed, intense competition, and spectacular set pieces, Star Wars: Galactic Racer looks set to deliver a thrilling ride for fans when it launches later this year. But what can we expect from this epic new Star Wars game? Jump into the cockpit and hit the throttle on the new trailer below.
THE STORY
Kestar Bool is the star of the Outer Rim’s Galactic League, using his position as League Champion to intimidate other pilots and extend his already powerful reach even further. Shade, an up-and-coming racer with a personal grudge against the Bool family, enters the League with an eye firmly on unseating the corrupt champion. Not only does Shade have a skilled Ardennian mechanic named Hibi to rely on, but also the support of legendary racer Sebulba — assuming Shade can earn the Dug’s hard-won respect.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer is high-stakes, runs-based racing adventure with multiple game modes, including Campaign, Scenario, and Arcade modes. Navigate your own path through the League in the solo campaign, choosing between different events as you progress with unique unlocks and new challenges at every turn. Crash too many times and you’re out of the tour; then it’s time to regroup, rebuild, and begin again. Certain perks and unlocks earned in previous attempts are carried over to the next run. Start each tour fresh with new decisions and choices for another chance to take down Kestar Bool.
SYNOPSIS
The Empire’s grip on the galaxy has finally broken, and with its fall comes a new obsession: speed. As the New Republic struggles to rebuild – gambling, entertainment, and glory fuel a booming underground. Out of this chaos, the Galactic League is born: an unsanctioned racing circuit where syndicates sponsor pilots, fortunes are won and lost in seconds, and only the bold survive. At the heart of it all is Shade, a lone racer with a dream of glory and revenge. For Shade, the League isn’t just a race; it’s a shot at reclaiming destiny. But standing in Shade’s way is Kestar, a ruthless rival who has his own power-hungry plans for the League.
As the Galactic League rises, so does the rivalry that could define it. Shade must forge alliances, outpace rivals, and survive long enough to become an elite racing pilot.
Speed across new and iconic Star Wars planets, with every world hosting a new kind of chaos. It’s not enough to be fast, you have to know your circuits: branching routes, varied environments, and dynamic risk-reward choices ensure no two runs play the same.
Select from multiple repulsorcraft classes, each with distinct handling and tactical advantages. Customize your build, unlock new abilities on every run, and master brutal takedowns.
Choose which events to conquer as you race through a dynamic campaign of speed, sabotage, and survival, or battle rivals for supremacy in competitive multiplayer.
No Force. No prophecy. Just skill, strategy, and the will to rise.
RELEASE
What a phenomenal first teaser. The gameplay evokes fond memories of the classic Star Wars: Episode I: Racer, with players once again hurtling across the galaxy in high-speed competitions. This modern reimagining, however, raises the stakes by placing racers on war-torn circuits such as Jakku and Ando Prime, weaving through the wreckage of crashed Star Destroyers and towering AT-AT walkers. It’s a thrilling concept that perfectly blends the franchise’s love of speed and spectacle—and the return of our old friend Sebulba only makes it even more exciting.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer launches worldwide on October 6, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Pre-order the Standard, Deluxe, or Collector’s Edition today to receive two exclusive bonuses, including an additional Livery for your repulsorcraft and a special Player Banner for multiplayer modes.
Will you be jumping into the cockpit when the game drops in October? Let us know below.
