Star Wars Squadrons is a new game that multiplayer fans should keep an eye on. It will feature intense PvP space battles with starships.
Starships and Star Wars are inseparably connected. However, in most games, we can only fight on the ground or have space battles as small mini-game segments. This is set to change soon, as a leak talked about Star Wars Squadrons, which was soon after officially teased by EA on Twitter.
What is Star Wars: Squadrons? According to the leak, Star Wars Squadrons is primarily a multiplayer title. After all, EA is using the slogan “Pilots Wanted”. Players will take control of various starships from the “Star Wars” universe and blow each other’s outer hulls apart in multiplayer battles. It seems that the focus will mainly be on team battles – details about the individual objectives or game modes are not yet known.
By the way, the game is developed by the studio Motive, who were responsible for the campaign in Battlefront 2 and also contributed to Anthem.
Is there also a single-player campaign? According to sources from Venturebeat, there will be a single-player campaign. However, it will be rather limited and is not the focus of the game. At its core, Star Wars: Squadron is indeed a multiplayer title, and thus you will probably have the most fun in those game modes.
When is Squadrons set to be released? There is currently no official date for this yet. The sources of the leak mention a release in Fall 2020 – that is, between October and December. A confirmation is still pending, but it will likely come with the first trailer.
First trailer comes on Monday
When will we learn more? The game’s reveal along with a trailer will happen on June 15, so in just a few days. Then you will surely read more about this title here on MeinMMO and find out what the multiplayer starship shooter has to offer.
Whether the game is worth it cannot be assessed based on the information so far. However, if you enjoyed the starship battles in SWTOR and “Galactic Starfighter”, keep your eyes open for this title.
Are you looking forward to a new “Star Wars” multiplayer?
