Star Wars: Squadrons Launch Party

The Fist office is hosting a series of competitions to celebrate the launch of Star Wars: Squadrons. The member that accumulates the most points in the sub-competitions will win the overall container and a diamond crescent.

The first round of sub-competitions will go live with the game on October 4th and will not require ownership of the game itself. A second round will become available after one week later on October 11th and will be focused on activities within the game.

Note: These competitions will not count towards the quarterly GMRG leaderboard.

Game Info

Star Wars: Squadrons is an upcoming space combat game set in the Star Wars universe developed by Motive Studios and published by Electronic Arts. It is scheduled for release for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 2, 2020. The game's story is set after Return of the Jedi.

Players take control of ships from the Galactic Empire and the New Republic navy. In these ships, they can utilize the movement of power between the ship's functions of weaponry, shields and engines to defeat their opponents in combat. Ships from the Galactic Empire do not have shields, resulting in other additions to their class in pursuit of giving players of both teams equal opportunities. As players earn more experience, they can unlock new weapons, shields, upgrades and various cosmetic items for the pilot and their ship.
