Star Wars Tactics Revealed at 2025 Event

EA's upcoming Star Wars turn-based tactics game will debut at Star Wars Celebration 2025. First announced in 2022, the untitled project comes from Bit Reactor - a studio founded by Firaxis Games veterans known for their work on the XCOM series. The development team has collaborated closely with Respawn Entertainment, creators of Star Wars Jedi, and is now prepared to unveil their tactical masterpiece.

Official Reveal Scheduled for April 19

The first gameplay reveal will occur during a special panel featuring lead developers from Bit Reactor, Respawn Entertainment, and Lucasfilm Games. This high-profile showcase appears on the official Star Wars Celebration 2025 schedule, marking a significant milestone for the mysterious project.

Mystery Still Surrounds the Project

Details remain scarce about this tactical adventure - neither its Star Wars era setting nor precise gameplay mechanics have been revealed. However, given the team's XCOM heritage, fans can anticipate deep strategic combat with authentic Star Wars flair.

Respawn's Expanding Star Wars Portfolio

While Respawn continues development on the third Star Wars Jedi game, the studio recently faced setbacks - canceling both a Mandalorian-focused FPS and a multiplayer shooter prototype. These cuts formed part of EA's broader restructuring that affected approximately 670 employees.

Additional Star Wars Celebration Highlights

The 2025 event will also showcase first looks at The Mandalorian & Grogu movie (slated for May 2026) and Star Wars: Visions Volume 3, offering fans numerous exciting reveals throughout the convention.
