Star Wars: Hunters Launches for PC in Early Access on January 27

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must admit that the gaming landscape has evolved significantly since the days of Atari and Nintendo Entertainment System. The recent announcement of “Star Wars: Hunters” coming to PC has piqued my interest, especially considering its initial release on the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices earlier this year.


At any given time, multiple AAA Star Wars games are being created by various major studios on Disney’s behalf. However, it’s not only within the AAA sector that this IP thrives. Earlier in the year, Star Wars: Hunters debuted for the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, offering a free-to-play hero shooter with a Star Wars theme to a wide audience. Soon, more players will have access to this game as well.

Zynga’s publisher has shared that “Star Wars: Hunters” will additionally be available on personal computers. The game is scheduled to debut on Steam in an early access phase on the 27th of January, approximately two months from now. Before the launch, there will be two playtests; one running from the 13th to the 16th of December and another from the 10th to the 13th of January. Registration for both playtests is currently open.

The game has been verified to include cross-platform play and cross-progression. Additionally, Zynga is planning to enhance visuals, offer customizable keyboard shortcuts, and more for computer users. Players of Star Wars: Hunters can anticipate a fresh hero and map, which will be Coruscant Underworld and Glikkin respectively, coming soon. Here’s the PC announcement trailer for your viewing pleasure:

As a die-hard Star Wars enthusiast, I can honestly say that Star Wars: Hunters earned an impressive 7/10 in my book. It’s more than just a run-of-the-mill hero shooter; it’s got a live-service model with a bit of an edge. The shooting mechanics are spot-on and the game levels are chock-full of delightful Star Wars Easter eggs that any fan will appreciate. Dive deeper into my review right here.
