In a recent development, the launch of Star Wars Hunters, a highly anticipated addition to the Star Wars gaming universe, has been postponed to 2024.
Unveiled in a Nintendo Direct livestream in 2021, this free-to-play battle royale shooter is a collaborative creation of Lucasfilm Games and Zynga. The game is set in the Star Wars timeline between the original trilogy and Episode 7: The Force Awakens. It promises a diverse roster of characters, from mercenaries to Rebel heroes and Imperial Stormtroopers, and is designed for Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.
Following a limited soft launch in select Asian countries, Zynga announced the deferral of the full release. This decision, shared via their Twitter account, is driven by the ambition to refine the game into a long-lasting and competitive battle arena, meeting the high expectations of Star Wars gaming fans.
The delay has led to mixed reactions among the Star Wars gaming community. While some express frustration, others are hopeful for a polished and immersive gaming experience. Zynga has acknowledged this sentiment and expressed gratitude for the patience and constructive feedback provided by fans. The developer also teased upcoming features like a Ranked Mode, heightening anticipation for the game's full version.
Recent Star Wars Games Met with Mixed Reviews
The delayed release of Star Wars Hunters follows a trend of fluctuating receptions for Star Wars games since 2015. While Star Wars Battlefront garnered attention, it was Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order in 2019 that truly captured the audience's admiration. However, this success was not replicated in its 2023 sequel, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The latter faced criticism for numerous bugs and subpar performance, particularly on PC platforms, leading to disappointment among fans.
Future Prospects for Star Wars Gaming
Despite these challenges, the Star Wars gaming community remains enthusiastic. Upcoming titles, including Massive Entertainment’s open-world Star Wars Outlaws and Nightdive Studios' remastered Star Wars: Dark Forces, keep the excitement alive. As for Star Wars Hunters, its exact release date is yet to be confirmed, keeping fans in eager anticipation for further updates from Zynga.
