Well, well, well. A few days ago, Star Wars: Galactic Racer appeared to accidentally show its hand on Steam. A release date and pre-order details briefly surfaced, pointing to an October 6, 2026 launch. We covered the leak, grabbed the screenshots, and said the evidence looked pretty convincing. Now Lucasfilm has made it official. According to StarWars.com’s new release date announcement, Star Wars: Galactic Racer will launch worldwide on October 6, 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. So yes: our original Galactic Racer leak report was right on the money. Not that we’re smug about it. We are, of course, deeply professional.

Star Wars Outlaws and Jedi: Survivor Both Get a PS5 Pro Graphics Boost
Two recent Star Wars games just got a quiet visual lift on PS5 Pro, thanks to Sony’s latest system software update. Star Wars Outlaws and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor are both benefiting from Sony’s upgraded version of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution, better known as PSSR. Sony says the updated tech improves image stability, fine-detail clarity, and overall consistency across supported PS5 Pro games.
