Former Burnout Devs Are Making A Star Wars Racing Game
"A second Star Wars game was announced at the Game Awards 2025, but this is very different than a single-player RPG. Instead, Star Wars: Galactic Racer is an intense racing game from some former Burnout devs. Developed by Fuse Games, a studio formed in 2023 by some longtime former Criterion devs, Star Wars: Galactic Racer looks like a spiritual successor to Star Wars: Episode I Racer. Here's the first trailer: And yes, at the end of that trailer, that is indeed everyone's favorite, no-good alien podracer, Sebulba."
""There's so much love for Sebulba on the team and across the Star Wars community," Fuse Games co-founder Matt Webster said. "There are particular reasons why he finds his way into our trailer as well as a detail in this shot that may lead to even more questions...the answers to which we'll have to leave to another time!" Interestingly, according to Webster, Galactic Racer will also feature some rouglike elements as players make choices on their journey to become the racer in the galaxy."
Star Wars: Galactic Racer is an arcade-style racing title revealed at the Game Awards 2025 and developed by Fuse Games, a studio founded in 2023 by longtime former Criterion developers. The game channels the feel of Star Wars: Episode I Racer while updating the concept with modern design from devs who worked on Burnout. The trailer features the return of Sebulba and hints at additional surprises. The team plans to include roguelike elements that let players make choices shaping their path to become the galaxy's top racer. The game is set after the fall of the Empire, during the sequel trilogy era, and will launch in 2026 on consoles and PC.
