What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 464 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Very Positive (3,133 of 3,732 positive).
Players praise the game's smooth performance and intense arcade racing feel. [1][2][3] Many note a lack of content and missing features like key rebinding and local splitscreen. [4][5][6] Some fans of the original podracing game are disappointed by the focus on other vehicles. [7][8]

I've been waiting for this game for a long, long time. Got it installed and went through the tutorial, and the game seems incredibly fun, but there is one issue for me personally that is sadly a deal breaker. I have a bit of nerve damage in both hands, and it makes using a controller non-viable and certain key combinations difficult for me to use reliably. In just about every other game I play, if there's a key or …

Somehow, Ben Quadinaros returned. And when I saw that he was a selectable racer, I thought "this is where the fun begins". Glad we finally got a new Star Wars racing game outside of arcades and the nintendo 64 after 27 years. It's like Wipeout + Burnout + Motorstorm all had a baby together and sent it out to the world in Star Wars cosplay. Cons: There is no way to rebind keys. There is no quick race function for …

I still have a lot more to see of this game at not quite two hours in, but one of the first things that floored me is how incredibly well it runs. Playing on my 5090 laptop, 1600p (the game does have 16:10 ratio), epic settings, raytracing on, DLSS+DLAA, stays solidly locked from 220-240fps in every race without a a noticeable hitch. Amazing. The game flows like motor oil. There are four modes in the game -- the …

I never thought I’d see the day when an Unreal Engine 5 game would run perfectly right out of the box! The game transports you back to the days when racing games were fun! It’s the perfect blend of NFS Hot Pursuit (2010) and Burnout! Really like it so far.

Unbelievable feel to the racing. Tight corners are intense, and tracks feel different every time depending on the type of vehicle you're using and the route you take. At its core its a fantastic, speedy feeling racer, and from a racing game thats all you can really ask. But there seems to be a decent story to go along with it, some interesting roguelike elements. Performance feels good. I have lower frames as rather …

Critics, per Wikipedia
Star Wars: Galactic Racer received "generally favorable" reviews from critics, according to review aggregator Metacritic. It became the highest-rated Star Wars game on the site since Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003). OpenCritic determined that 97% of critics recommended the game. One character, named Biddy Blas, who taunts the player in an obnoxious voice, has gained popularity among players online. Fans describe him as "the best Glup Shitto", an internet meme term referring to background characters, often with silly names. The voice actor for the character, Richard Summers-Calvert, has expressed that he is "overwhelmed and overstimulated" by how much the internet loves Biddy…

Star Wars (comic book series, 1977-present) 3. Star Wars (video game, 1983) 4. Star Wars (novelisation, 1976) 5. Star Wars (proposed missile defence system, 1983)

It doesn't have a lot of content or map variety but it is an enjoyable experience, I'm paying on KB/M and I'm having zero trouble only downside you can't remap controls. I'm glad I got it cheaper on a 3rd party site All in all. Wait for a sale

neutral · AI labelView post →Genuinely wanna like this game the racing felt great. But in the perspective of someone thats minutes from heading to work and wanting to hop into a quick race to feel it out I'm sorely disappointed. There's a campaign with cutscenes, a scenario mode, and time trials. Pod Racing is locked to online play only from what I could see. There is NO singleplayer mode where you can simply pick a track and vehicle and just race. HOW DO YOU NOT INCLUDE A SIMPLE SINGLE RACE FEATURE?? I hope this is…

neutral · AI labelView post →Its fun dont get me wrong. And its nice to finally see another Star Wars racing game. However, we need local splitscreen and custom multiplayer lobbies. The ability to load into a game with a friend and race eachother on choosable maps would be a game changer. This could be huge if these options were implemented. Please devs listen to the community!
