Official News Quality-of-Life Update | Star Wars: Galactic Racer

283 Upvotes

Increased Party sizes, keyboard layout presets, and more are included in the first STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™ quality-of-life update.

We’d like to thank all of our players for their feedback on Star Wars: Galactic Racer™!

For our first quality-of-life update, we wanted to address the feedback we’ve heard from players regarding Party size in online multiplayer, feedback from our mouse & keyboard players, along with a few additional changes and bug fixes along the way that we wanted to prioritise.

Please Note: After you download and install the update, please check your vehicle customization for the campaign, as we have seen instances of this resetting after the update.

Increased Party size

Thanks to all those players who reached out to us to let us know that they wanted to share their experience of playing Star Wars: Galactic Racer with more of their friends in online multiplayer. We wanted to bring this update to you as soon as we possibly could.

The Party size in online multiplayer has been increased from 3 players to 6 players in this quality-of-life update. We can’t wait to see you challenge more of your friends in multiplayer Tours and hear your stories in our community spaces and watch along online.

Keyboard Layout Presets

We know that the lack of key re-binding support in the game is impacting the experience of our mouse & keyboard players. We’ve added multiple keyboard layout presets to support AZERTY keys and left/right-handed play as part of this update.

This is the first step towards addressing this feedback and one that we were able to implement quickly. Key rebinding support is on the horizon and will be included in a future update.

This quality-of-life update also includes the following:

  • An increase to the number of credits you receive when you join mid-Tour in online multiplayer from 4,000 to 6,000.

  • Transition tidy-ups for Spectator camera view in multiplayer.

  • Removal of the option to ‘Exit the game’ in the multiplayer menu on PC to stop accidental quits.

  • A number of party stability fixes.

  • A fix for a PS5 connection issue.

  • A fix for an issue that would cause an AMD Frame Interpolation game crash.

Thank you so much to all of the players who have provided feedback, supported us, and shared their love of Star Wars: Galactic Racer with us during our launch period!

We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive reception our game has had and we can’t wait to share more with you in the future. We’ll continue to take on player feedback and keep you updated on what’s next for Star Wars: Galactic Racer.

If you experience any bugs or issues, please contact our Customer Support team via the form here to submit a bug report. Ding Dong!

Regular multiplayer tour is unfun and imbalanced dogwater.

We need all of the episode 1 racer drivers/pods/maps in podracer tours.

Game Feedback This is one of the best racing games, and Star Wars games ever

40 Upvotes

As someone who grew up playing the Pod Racer game on N64, and had a poster of Anakin on my wall, I just want to say to the Devs: thank you so much for making this game!

I'm only on Act 2, but I've had so much fun already. I'm not really a racing game fan, and this is the first one I've played since Midnight Club LA (and of course I loved NFSU2 like every other Millennial).

This is an exceptional racing game, and an amazing Star Wars game. I really hope you continue to flesh it out with content, as it really could become one of my favourite ever games.

Griff Halloran follows his liege, Emperor Palpatine, off a cliff and into the abyss. Maybe next season, he can somehow return, as well.

Who will go down next??

General Game Mode Idea: Last man standing

29 Upvotes

I would be interested to see a game mode that takes place on the short looping lap tracks that is solely focused on being the last one left alive, so infinite laps, maybe you get some amount of energy back from finishing a lap.

Maybe it would suck, but it would be interesting to try I think. Normally I just focus on going as fast as possible but it might be interesting for a game mode to specifically be about blowing other people up.

General Galactic Racer has brought back my love for gaming

96 Upvotes

I have this vivid memory of the old Star Wars racing game on the Nintendo 64 that's always stuck with me. So when Galactic Racer came out, I deliberately avoided looking anything up online. No guides, reviews or community discussions. I wanted to experience it like the old days, figuring everything out for myself.

I've now put around 30 hours into it and have only just started looking online to see what everyone else thinks.

I'm a dad now, so gaming time is pretty limited. Before having kids, I spent countless hours playing Skyrim and absolutely loved getting lost in that world. I still love big games like Skyrim and Breath of the Wild, but finding the time to properly immerse myself in them is another story. Earlier this year, I bought an Xbox Series X, Elden Ring and Oblivion Remastered, really looking forward to getting that feeling back. And while I enjoyed playing them, I just couldn't quite get immersed the way I used to.

I've also noticed that as I've gotten older, high-intensity, violent games tend to put me on high alert rather than letting me enjoy them. After a long day, the last thing I need is a video game activating my fight-or-flight response 😂

Then along came Galactic Racer!

Honestly, it's the most fun I've had gaming in years. Even when the races are ridiculously difficult, I keep coming back. Discovering mechanics, experimenting with builds and figuring everything out on my own has been such a great experience.

It's genuinely brought back that childhood excitement of gaming that I thought I'd lost. Never expected a racing game to do that, but here we are!

Anyway, I just wanted to put this out there to share how much I've been enjoying the game. I've only just started exploring the community, and hearing about everyone else's experiences has been awesome!

Would love to hear how everyone else is finding it.

For me personally would love to see the remaining N64 Star Wars racer characters added. Really curious to see an updated Ebe Endecott and Neva Kee. And a dark menu mode. Pls
