Likely the game that surprised me most at Summer Game Fest, Star Wars: Galactic Racer is so much more than I first thought. While it has all the modes you’d expect: arcade, time trials, and online multiplayer, it’s single-player story mode takes a sharp unexpected turn into roguelike sensibilities. Select a vehicle and pilot archetype before embarking on a cross-planetary competitive tour as Shade, a mysterious lone racer with a chip on his shoulder, collecting new parts and hull upgrades along the way. However, once you’re knocked out of the tour, you’ll have to start over. 

In this episode of New Gameplay Today, editors Alex Van Aken and Charles Harte dive into Star Wars: Galactic Racer. We hope you enjoy!
