Star Wars: Zero Company launches August 27, 2026 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, if you believe billbil-kun, and history says you should. The leaker published the date this week, days ahead of an expected official reveal, and their track record on release dates is close to spotless.
Why it matters
August 27 would put the Clone Wars tactics game from Bit Reactor (a studio built on Firaxis XCOM veterans, working with Respawn) less than three months out. For a game we've only seen in cinematics so far, that means a gameplay reveal has to be imminent, and the calendar agrees: Summer Game Fest is Friday, and the Xbox Games Showcase follows Sunday. Bit Reactor has been teasing "we'll see you soon" with new art since May. Everything points to this weekend.
The details
- The leak: August 27, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, via billbil-kun's report.
- A date this specific usually comes from store-listing metadata, which is why billbil-kun's calls tend to hold up.
- Until EA says it, treat it as a leak, not an announcement. We'll update the moment there's an official date.
- Watch Summer Game Fest Friday at 2 p.m. PT; that's the likeliest stage for the gameplay debut.
What to do with this: nothing yet, except clear some calendar space Friday afternoon. If the reveal shows real tactical gameplay from the XCOM crew, this becomes the Star Wars game of the year to watch.
