Star Wars meets XCOM.
The Star Wars Zero Company release date has been set for 27 August, EA, LucasFilm, and Bit Reactor have recently announced.
The single-player, turn-based tactics title looks like Star Wars and plays like XCOM.
“Star Wars Zero Company’s visual storytelling and gameplay will immerse players in a tense, clandestine conflict taking place in the shadows of the Clone Wars,” reads a press release. “Players will step into the shoes of former Galactic Republic officer Hawks and current leader of Zero Company.”
“Zero Company is an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy, including a Clone Trooper, a Mandalorian of the ancient Clan Verminoth, a Jedi Padawan and more,” the press release continued. “Together, Zero Company must hunt down and stop Kundri Fathom, leader of the Separatist-aligned cult, the Infinite Coil.”
“Our team has poured everything we love about Star Wars into Zero Company,” said Greg Foertsch, CEO of Bit Reactor. “The bold characters, powerful storytelling, striking settings and the sense of heart beneath the battles in Star Wars has helped us create an experience that pushes the tactics genre forward by combining deep gameplay with cinematic elegance.”
Expect Star Wars Zero Company from 27 August on Windows PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
