Star Wars Galactic Racer announced for 2026, promising pure racing "the way it was before the Empire shut it down" – but I don't see any podracers

Star Wars Galactic Racer.

Move over Fate of the Old Republic, a real Star Wars game just entered the conversation. Yes, The Game Awards 2025 didn't grace us with one but two games in a galaxy far far away.

The trailer establishes quickly that this game has the looks but it isn't just a pretty face. The team behind Star Wars Galactic Racer, Fuse Games, is made up of devs whose previous credits include racing masterpieces such as Burnout Paradise and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. For the Star Wars setting Fuse has traded out traditional cars for the likes of landspeeders and speeder bikes (but crucially no podracers have been spotted). One of the many planets you'll return to will be Jakku, but that is far from the last place you'll be speeding. The trailer also introduces Ando Prime, a snowy planet that brings Hoth to mind.
