Following a minor leak last week, EA has officially announced the title of its upcoming Star Wars game, *Star Wars: Zero Company*. The game is being crafted by the newly established studio Bit Reactor, with collaborative support from Lucasfilm Games and Respawn. This project marks an exciting addition to the Star Wars gaming universe.
While details about *Star Wars: Zero Company* are still scarce, we do know it will be a "single-player turn-based tactics game". Fans won't have to wait long for more insights, as EA has scheduled a first look at the game for April 19 at Star Wars Celebration in Japan.
Bit Reactor, the studio behind *Zero Company*, is a fresh face in the strategy gaming scene, founded in 2022. This team is composed of industry veterans who have previously worked on acclaimed titles such as XCOM, Civilization, Gears of War, and Elder Scrolls Online. Their expertise promises an intriguing blend of strategy and storytelling within the Star Wars universe. Although it's been known for some time that Bit Reactor was working alongside Respawn on a Star Wars game, this is the first substantial information we've received about the project.
The extent of Respawn's involvement in *Star Wars: Zero Company* remains somewhat unclear. Respawn has faced its own set of challenges recently, including the cancellation of its own Star Wars FPS project a year ago, mass layoffs at EA, and the termination of another multiplayer FPS project just last month.
Further details about *Star Wars: Zero Company* will be unveiled during a live panel on Saturday, April 19 at 4:30pm local time in Japan. For fans in the U.S., this translates to an early morning reveal at 12:30am PT and 3:30am ET, so make sure to set your alarms accordingly.
