We're about to experience racing peak that we haven't felt in a LONG time!

It's gonna be tough switching between Galactic Racer and E-Day, but I'm gonna make it work!



You called down the thunder, now reap the whirlwind

I will get will this on my brother's PC. We played the original to death.



Looks like im buying lol



I'm more excited for Zero Company, but both look great and it's awesome that we're getting two compelling yet drastically different Star Wars games back to back.

This is exactly what I want : an arcade really fun game for racing. I don't usually like racing games but MotorStorm and Burnout were dope.

Fans of Star Wars games are having a blast between this and Zero Company (aka ZCOM). I’ve had my eye firmly on Zero Company ever since reveal, but I’m waiting for a sale. I’ve already got enough in my backlog, so might as well let a sale serve as an excuse to give this game a spin.

Fantastic !

These weeks have been great ! The Blood of Dawnwalker, Gears E Day and now Galactic Racer ! Next GTA VI



Damn I'm very tempted now to get the collector's edition. This looks like my dream game (despite lacking VR but can play at 120fps in the headset in first person view). Gonna think about spending CAD 220 on it, looks worth it to me. Steel book + Art book + metal model.
