Star Wars: Squadrons is Motive Studios and Electronic Arts' brand-new space-combat action game set in the universe of Star Wars, and the developers have promised that the upcoming title will give players an immersive experience like no other before — which is quite exciting for fans of the series.
Today, the game's Creative Director Ian S. Frazier has got some pretty great news for those anticipating the release, as he reveals that Star Wars: Squadrons has officially gone gold; meaning that the game is ready to be shipped, and that it won't be delayed.
Star Wars: Squadrons has been revealed to be a multiplayer game, but this shouldn't really discourage fans of the series from getting it, since Motive Studios has also included a single-player campaign that will see players experiencing both sides of the war as the Rebellion and the Empire.
After the release of Respawn Entertainment's critically acclaimed Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, fans of the series have been more than willing to give Electronic Arts another chance — as long as they don't get too involved in the development of the games, that is — and like Respawn Entertainment's game, Star Wars: Squadrons is also Motive Studios' own, unaltered vision.
From what we have seen from the trailers and gameplay previews, the developers at Motive Studios have done a phenomenal job with Star Wars: Squadrons, and is nice to know that the game is ready to hit store shelves in just a mere three weeks from today.
Buckle up, take full control of starfighters such as the X-wing and TIE fighter, and feel the adrenaline of strategic first-person 5v5 multiplayer dogfights alongside your squadron. In a fateful campaign set near the conclusion of the Galactic Civil War, learn what it means to be a pilot in a thrilling STAR WARS™ single-player story. The New Republic fights for freedom. The Empire demands order. We need you to join the galaxy’s finest.
Star Wars: Squadrons will release for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on Friday the 2nd of October.
