Following a leak earlier on Friday on Microsoft’s Xbox website, EA has now seized the initiative and announced its latest installment to the Star Wars video game franchise: Star Wars: Squadrons.
So far, EA hasn’t released too much information on what the game entails, but the title’s name and the new poster published on Twitter would suggest that the upcoming experience will focus on aerial combat, featuring iconic ships like the X-Wing and Tie Fighter, allowing you to play on both the Rebel or Empire teams. VentureBeat has also suggested that the game will focus on dogfighting and include a single-player campaign, although the core of the game will still revolve around multiplayer, and will be released on both console platforms and PC.
For those interested in the upcoming Star Wars: Squadrons, EA will be debuting a full reveal trailer on Monday June 15 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time over on Youtube.
Elsewhere in gaming, it now seems that Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales will not be a standalone title.
Pilots Wanted. Tune in for the reveal trailer of #StarWarsSquadrons this Monday, June 15th at 8:00 AM Pacific Time: https://t.co/ULwkIhQy2y pic.twitter.com/L0Z3jC2c3j
