August 27, 2026 puts Clone Wars tactics on the board — not another blaster arena
Star Wars Zero Company ships Thursday, August 27, 2026. Bit Reactor’s overhead turn-based campaign follows a deniable squad through the Clone Wars’ shadow war — hire, specialize, and win missions where every move can rewrite the next briefing.
Customize Hawks and Operators across species like Togruta, Twi’lek, Zabrak, and more, then outfit the roster with talents that match the op. Pre-order any edition for the Crystalline Astromech pack; Deluxe layers Shadow Collective and Grand Army cosmetics on top.
Confirmed: single-player tactics — not Battlefront 3, not Galactic Racer, not 1313
Confirmed: Aug 27 2026, PS5/Xbox/PC, Bit Reactor + EA + Lucasfilm Games, turn-based Clone Wars ops, Standard/Deluxe pricing split by platform. Not confirmed as a live-service shooter ladder or that every Clone Wars hero cameo is day-one. Galactic Racer is the October racing SKU; 1313 stays canceled.

Before August 27 — pick PC vs console wallet math
- PC Standard undercuts console by about $10 at list — worth checking if you are platform-flexible.
- Deluxe is cosmetics-forward (no early access promised in EA materials) — skip it if you only want the campaign.
- Physical Standard discs exist on console; Deluxe upgrade can be bought digitally later.
- Brush up on XCOM-style cover logic; this is a tactics board, not a hero shooter warm-up.
- Do not mix this date with Galactic Racer (Oct 6) or Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy (also Aug 27).
EA is charging about $50 on PC and $60 on consoles — a rare Star Wars undercut
Most current-gen Star Wars launches default to a flat $70 fantasy. Zero Company’s Standard list splits: roughly $49.99 on PC versus $59.99 on PlayStation and Xbox, with Deluxe climbing another $10–20 depending on platform.
That pricing is the calendar quirk worth remembering next to the Clone Wars tactics pitch — Bit Reactor is selling a premium single-player strategy night without the full AAA sticker tax, especially on Steam and the EA App.
