There is a new EA Star Wars game heading our way – Star Wars: Squadrons and a gameplay trailer has been released. For the single campaign, Hera Syndulla and Wedge Antilles will once again fight for the New Republic, alongside Rebels character.

The second Death Star is gone, but starfighter pilots unite on both sides of the Galactic Civil War as it rages on in STAR WARS™: Squadrons.

Fight alongside your squadron to tip the scales in monumental fleet battles and compete in intense 5 vs. 5 dogfights. Get into the cockpit and triumph as a team by completing tactical objectives across known and never-before-seen battlefields, including the gas giant of Yavin Prime and the shattered moon of Galitan.

Immerse yourself in strategic multiplayer space battles and a thrilling STAR WARS™ single-player story, seen from alternating perspectives between the New Republic and the Empire.

Master the art of starfighter combat in the authentic piloting experience STAR WARS™: Squadrons.

I do like the sound of that. That and the cockpit consoles me of the old X-Wing video game.
