Star Wars Zero Company will release sometime in 2026, according to an announcement from Disney and EA. The game’s title was revealed earlier this week.

Alongside the release year, the two companies also shared a bit more information about what you can expect from the game. “In Star Wars Zero Company, players will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer, to command an elite squad of cunning operatives through a gritty and authentic story set in the twilight of the Clone Wars,” according to a press release.

You’ll be able to customize Hawks’ appearance and class, and team members you recruit can “be personalized from a range of original Star Wars character classes and species.” Your team members can also “forge bonds” to “unlock powerful combat synergies that can turn the tide of battle.”

Zero Company will launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X / S.

Bit Reactor is leading development on Zero Company alongside Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The game was initially announced without a title in January 2022 as part of a three-game set of Star Wars titles that Respawn would be working on. The other two games are Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and a new FPS game.
