Star Wars: Galactic Racer blends arcade racing with roguelite progression

Fuse Games, a Guildford studio staffed by veterans of EA and Criterion, is making the first new Star Wars racing game in 24 years. Galactic Racer mixes arcade racing with roguelite runs: races across planets with conditions that affect vehicles, and repeated attempts to qualify for the Galactic League.

• First Star Wars racing game since Episode I: Racer in 1999
• Developer Fuse Games founded by ex-EA and Criterion staff
• Roguelite progression: race runs toward a qualifying race, failure possible
• Planetary conditions like toxic atmosphere and heat affect vehicles without explanation
