EA showed “Star Wars” fans the first glimpses of its new title “Star Wars: Squadrons,” which is coming out Oct. 2, 2020. Described as an “immersive, first-person space dogfighting experience,” it seems that the publisher is taking one of the best parts of its “Star Wars: Battlefront” games and expanding upon it.

The game will feature 5-versus-5 multiplayer battles, “monumental fleet battles” and a narrative that takes place after “Return of the Jedi.” From the reveal trailer, it looks like players will have a chance at piloting starfighters from both sides of the New Republic and Imperial fleets. In the news release, one of the multiplayer modes is one focused on setting out to destroy an opponent’s flagship. There will undoubtedly be other forms of multiplayer offerings as well, but this sounds like the main one.
