now THIS is pod racing
I am very interested in this, but the fact they’re “slow rolling” actual pod racing is…an odd choice. Everybody universally liked Episode 1 Racer. Why are they not focusing primarily on pod racing, with other types of vehicles also there?
Seems weird that it’s the other way around and makes me think this is another Star Wars Squadrons, which is a game I was extremely excited about, but the controls sucked on and EA botched.
Ah, shades of Cyberspeed!
Really needs a RPG or at least a rogue lite system on top or it’s going to struggle to keep an audience.

Wow. Burnout: Galactic Racer is looking kinda sick.
Graphics look okay, but the handling of the pods looks clunky.
It looks like an AG racer, like wipEout and F-Zero, but with a fresh coat of Star Wars themed paint.
I wouldn’t say clunky but definitely floaty; that’s part of the genre. It’s a feature. It’s exactly what I’d expect pod racing to be.
So, canon.
That’s what I thought. Looks like something children will enjoy. I’m not ready to take it off my wishlist but I almost did.
At least they finally showed more environments than “flat desert junkyard”, and some jumps.
Points for the wrecked ISDs.
It’s crazy that it isn’t. I know it has a couple pod racers, but IMO they fucked up not making it a strictly pod racer game.
