Today, during day two of the ongoing Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025, Lucasfilm and EA gave us our first real look Star Wars Zero Company. The upcoming turn-based single-player strategy game is being developed by BitReactor and Respawn and launches next year.
Earlier this month, before today’s big reveal, the game had leaked online and gave us our first tease at the XCOM-inspired tactical Star Wars game. On April 14, EA confirmed the game’s title, Star Wars Zero Company, and promised to show more during a panel at Star Wars Celebration in Japan. And that’s exactly what happened. I love it when a plan comes together.
Star Wars Zero Company is launching in 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Here’s the first official announcement trailer from Star Wars Celebration 2025.
According to the devs at Respawn and BitReactor, Zero Company features an original story set during the Clone Wars. In a trailer we see what appears to be a ragtag group of soldiers and heroes, complete with a Jedi, smuggler, clone trooper, droid, and Mandalorian warrior. The team seems to be called into to take on tricky and sneaky missions against the droid armies of the Confederacy of Independent Systems aka the bad guys in the Prequel trilogy.
Players will take on the role of Hawks, the customizable leader of Zero Company. BitReactor wants players to experience a cinematic and easy-to-hop into strategy game that can appeal to all sorts of fans.Â
