Podracing fans, today is the day! Star Wars: Galactic Racer from Fuse Games and Secret Mode launches on 6 October, and you have already pushed it to the top of Steam’s Australian top sellers.
You play Shade, a lone racer in the Galactic League, which is an unsanctioned circuit out in the Outer Rim. You get to slam and shunt your rivals in landspeeders, speeder bikes, skim speeders and podracers (yes, actual podracers!), and as the Steam page puts it, “The greater the risk, the greater the reward.”
We have checked the local prices for you. It is A$88.50 on Steam, and JB Hi-Fi has it at A$89 on PS5 and Xbox. Want the Collector’s Edition with the landspeeder model, physical art book and pilot patches? JB Hi-Fi has the PS5 one at A$269!
What: Star Wars: Galactic Racer
When: Out today, Tuesday 6 October
Where: PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PS5 and Xbox
How much: A$88.50 on Steam, A$89 at JB Hi-Fi
So clear the evening, grab a controller and go win that podrace!
