Set in the years after Return of the Jedi, Star Wars Squadrons puts you in the boots of both New Republic and Empire pilots, as you dogfight in space battles from within the cockpit of various famous ships.
As well as the X-Wing and TIE-Fighter, the game includes six other ships of different classes. The interceptor class is repped by the TIE Interceptor and A-Wing. Support ships include the TIE Reaper and U-Wing. Finally, bombing ships comprise the TIE Bomber and Y-Wing.
You'll begin in single-player mode playing as a pilot from both sides - getting to know your ships from the inside out. Cockpit sensors and screens act as your HUD, with readouts for things like power management and shields. You'll fight as part of a squad of diverse fighters from various races in a story which reflects the changing power of balance in the galaxy.
