Star Wars: Galactic Racer is not a podracing game. But it is a game about podracing… and a lot more. Perhaps more than the developers actually intended. If you’ll indulge me a little, I’ll unpack this.

Yeah, it’s a pretty good game

First, Galactic Racer is a pretty darn good arcade racing game. It’s an easy recommendation if you’ve ever enjoyed a game like F-Zero or Wipeout, or of course the original Episode 1 Racer from way back in the 90s. It’s got a decent roguelike singleplayer mode, competitive multiplayer, lots of customization options, some very pretty graphics, and most essentially, an incredible feeling of speed.
