In addition to the Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic announcement that kicked off The Game Awards 2025, it was later revealed that Star Wars Galactic Racer is coming to Xbox Series X and S in 2026, and we reckon it's gonna be great!
This is the third podracing-style game after the original Star Wars Episode 1: Racer and the PS2's Star Wars Racer Revenge, with Galactic Racer being developed by the team at Fuse Games - a studio that's made up of developers that have worked on the likes of Burnout and Need for Speed.
Bring it on, then! We'll leave you with more details below, and the reveal trailer is above.
You can also check out a lengthy interview about the game on the official Star Wars website.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer introduces players to The Galactic League, an unsanctioned racing circuit born in the lawless Outer Rim, where the galaxy’s best pilots battle in dangerous races where only the bold survive. Slam, shunt, and takedown rivals as you pilot different classes of repulsorcraft each with distinct physics and playstyles. Speed across new and iconic Star Wars planets, where branching routes and varied environments ensure no two races play the same.
At the heart of it all is Shade, a lone racer with a dream of glory and revenge. But standing in Shade’s way is Kestar, a ruthless rival who has his own power-hungry plans for the League. Ride solo through a story-driven campaign, where Shade must forge alliances, outpace rivals, and survive long enough to become an elite racing pilot. Or battle for supremacy in competitive multiplayer, braving strategic PvP grudge matches where reputation rides with you. Customize your build, unlock new abilities on every run, and master brutal takedowns. No Force. No prophecy. Just skill, strategy, and the will to rise.
