Okay, so here’s the thing about this new Star Wars game, Zero Company — it’s got this name that makes me think of secret agents or something, but nope, it’s a game spun out of the Clone Wars. Yeah, I’m confused too, but I guess they’re looking to show us a new angle on this whole galactic saga. Bit Reactor’s calling the shots here, with some backup from Respawn (superheroes of gaming, seriously). Imagine a turn-based Star Wars game, like a chess match but with laser swords. Intrigued yet? I am. Or maybe I’m just easily amused.
So apparently, Respawn’s been bringing it big with the Jedi series — lightsaber-twirling hits that made fans go, “Okay, this is the Star Wars game we always wanted,” or something close. With Zero Company ticking away for a 2026 splash, lots of folks are whispering it hints at when Star Wars Jedi 3 might pop up. Delays, mysteries, who knows? They haven’t rubber-stamped any dates for Jedi 3, but there’s a vibe that it might not share 2026 with Zero Company. Could just be hopeful thinking, or maybe it’s strategic spacing. Yeah, I think I heard that in some business meeting once.
Now for some sauce on the characters — Hawks, yeah, that’s our protagonist in Zero Company. Wonder if they fly a lot with a name like that. Apparently, this character’s got a vibe Lucasfilm’s shouting about — new roles, fresh perspectives, all that jazz. Makes me wonder if we’ll ever really see everything there is to see in this galaxy. Guessing no, but hey, they try.
There’s speculation that 2027 might be when Jedi 3 peeks out from behind the corner. Something about a pattern and how Fallen Order and Survivor had a four-year gap too. People just love guessing what’s next, right? Anyway, Hawks — who apparently you can dress up and kit out to your heart’s content — is our playground hero, and I’m honestly curious to see how they’ll twist this character into the wider Star Wars tales.
And hey, let’s not forget the movies! Ryan Gosling’s rumored to be zipping about in a starfighter soon. So if games aren’t your thing, there’s always the movie pop-culture buffet waiting for you. I’d say it’s a good time to be in the sci-fi nerd camp, unless you really can’t stand waiting for release dates. Who knows when they’ll actually drop all this? Let’s cross our lightsabers and hope it’s sooner rather than later.
