For our first quality-of-life update, we wanted to address the feedback we’ve heard from players regarding Party size in online multiplayer, feedback from our mouse & keyboard players, along with a few additional changes and bug fixes along the way that we wanted to prioritise.
Please Note: After you download and install the update, please check your vehicle customization for the campaign, as we have seen instances of this resetting after the update.
Increased Party Size
Thanks to all those players who reached out to us to let us know that they wanted to share their experience of playing Star Wars: Galactic Racer with more of their friends in online multiplayer. We wanted to bring this update to you as soon as we possibly could.
The Party size in online multiplayer has been increased from 3 players to 6 players in this quality-of-life update. We can’t wait to see you challenge more of your friends in multiplayer Tours and hear your stories in our community spaces and watch along online.
Keyboard Layout Presets
We know that the lack of key re-binding support in the game is impacting the experience of our mouse & keyboard players. We've added multiple keyboard layout presets to support AZERTY keys and left/right-handed play as part of this update.
This is the first step towards addressing this feedback and one that we were able to implement quickly. Key rebinding support is on the horizon and will be included in a future update.
This quality-of-life update also includes the following:
- An increase to the number of credits you receive when you join mid-Tour in online multiplayer from 4,000 to 6,000.
- Transition tidy-ups for Spectator camera view in multiplayer.
- Removal of the option to ‘Exit the game’ in the multiplayer menu on PC to stop accidental quits.
- A number of party stability fixes.
- A fix for a PS5 connection issue.
- A fix for an issue that would cause an AMD Frame Interpolation game crash.
Thank you so much to all of the players who have provided feedback, supported us, and shared their love of Star Wars: Galactic Racer with us during our launch period!
We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive reception our game has had and we can’t wait to share more with you in the future. We’ll continue to take on player feedback and keep you updated on what’s next for Star Wars: Galactic Racer.
If you experience any bugs or issues, please contact our Customer Support team via the form here to submit a bug report. Ding Dong!
