About STAR WARS™: Squadrons

STAR WARS™: Squadrons offers an authentic piloting experience, immersing players directly into first-person starfighter combat within the Star Wars universe. Pilots control starfighters from both the New Republic and Imperial fleets, engaging in strategic 5v5 multiplayer space battles. Players modify their starfighter loadouts and adjust squadron composition to achieve tactical objectives across battlefields like Yavin Prime and Galitan. The game also includes a single-player story, presenting events from alternating faction perspectives after Return of the Jedi.

Master legendary starfighters such as the X-wing and TIE fighter, customizing loadouts and diverting power between weapons, shields, and engines dynamically during combat. This system enables strategic adjustments to ship performance. The game emphasizes a first-person cockpit perspective, with full virtual reality (VR) support available for the entire experience. Progression is tied to earning rewards through play, unlocking new components including weapons, hulls, engines, and shields, alongside cosmetic items. This provides a clear path for starfighter enhancement and personalization.
