STAR WARS EPISODE I: RACER to Launch on Nintendo Switch and PS4 Next Week
Last month, Star Wars fans were crushed when Aspyr had to delay the release of Star Wars Episode I: Racer. We weren’t given any kind of new release window and fans were reasonably bummed. I know I was looking forward to reliving the thrilling adventures of podracing. Well, Aspyr has now revealed that the game will be released next week! That’s right, fans will be able to play Episode I: Racer on Nintendo Switch and PS4 starting June 23.
A beloved racing title based on the podracing sequence from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Episode I: Racer puts you behind the controls of your favorite podracers as you speed through flaming methane lakes, Tusken Raider assaults, anti-gravity tunnels, and much more in a pulse-pounding, do-or-die fight to the finish line. Features include:
25 playable racers including: Anakin Skywalker, Sebulba, and Ratts Tyerell
Race tracks spanning 8 unique worlds including: Tatooine, Baroonda, and Malastare
Work with pit droids to upgrade your podracer for higher top speeds and acceleration
Discover short-cuts and secrets to master your lap times
Split-screen multiplayer (Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4) and LAN multiplayer (Nintendo Switch)
