Star Wars Zero Company is revealed at Star Wars Celebration
It was teased a few days ago, but at Star Wars Celebration 2025 we got the full reveal of Star Wars Zero Company. Check out the first trailer for the game below, which is coming in 2026
Developed by Bit Reactor, a studio founded by former Firaxis developers and supported by Respawn Entertainment, 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. As an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy, Zero Company must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds and take on an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked.
“Our vision for Star Wars Zero Company is grounded in gameplay design pillars that weave in the immersive Star Wars galaxy with engaging turn-based tactics gameplay. It’s our aim to deliver a game with an original Star Wars story from the Clone Wars era that has meaningful outcomes from player choices, and deep turn-based tactical combat with an approachable and cinematic presentation”
In Star Wars Zero Company, players will embark on a campaign of tactical operations and investigations across the galaxy. Between missions, they will develop a base of operations and gather intelligence through a network of informants to stay one step ahead of Zero Company’s adversaries. Players will have the freedom to create and customize their own squad of recruited operators while getting to know a cast of newly authored Star Wars characters.
“At Lucasfilm Games, we’re huge tactics fans and we have wanted to make a game like this for a long time. The best tactics games are all about meaningful choices, and we’re confident we have chosen the right squad in Bit Reactor to deliver a compelling and innovative title that is authentic to Star Wars”
Hawks’ appearance and combat class can be fully customized, while recruited operatives can be personalized from a range of original Star Wars character classes and species, which includes Hawk being a droid. Tailor squadmates’ appearances, load-outs, and abilities across a wide variety of character archetypes, including Clone Troopers, astromechs and even a Jedi.
While in the field, members of Zero Company will forge bonds between them to unlock powerful combat synergies that can turn the tide of battle. With near-endless possibilities and high-stakes encounters that could change the fate of the galaxy, players will need intense preparation, adept strategy, and the right squad to succeed. There are a number of characters that you can recruit, or create your own. The team announced four characters that they have created, that you can have join your group, they are:
Trick, a clone soldier whose laconic wit masks a haunted heart
Luco Bronc, an incendiary sharpshooter who still hasn't forgiven the Republic for invading his homeworld of Umbara
Cly Kullervo, an infamous Mandalorian gunslinger and one of the last surviving members of the ancient clan Verminoth
Tel, a Tognath Jedi Padawan on a quest to complete her fallen master's last mission
The galaxy map will be where you choose where to go, as different planets and locations, will have different missions waiting for players.
