・Eurogamer: 100/100 (PS5)
・Hobby Consolas: 90/100 (PS5)
Fuse Games hit the gas, fired up the afterburner, revved the engines to the limit, climbed to the top of the galactic racing world, and crossed the finish line in first place. This is a pod race. No, it’s more than that. This is one of the best racing games of recent years.
・TechRadar Gaming: 90/100 (PS5)
*Star Wars: Galactic Racer* is the long-awaited “Star Wars” racing game that ignited a competitive spirit I didn’t even know I had.Fuse Games has crafted an exhilarating and utterly immersive roguelike racing game. The vehicle customization system is superb, offering endless possibilities on the track.
・Insider Gaming: 90/100 (Xbox Series X)
*Star Wars: Galactic Racer* is a near-perfect game that’s bringing a major revolution to the racing genre, which had become somewhat stale.I truly believe this game has the potential to usher in a new era for the genre—just as the *Forza Horizon* series and others created the open-world-focused trend that now dominates today’s racing game landscape.
・GameSpot: 90/100 (PS5)
Every moment is exhilaratingly fast. Every decision is fraught with tension. And every run is a rewarding opportunity to learn, improve, tinker, and adapt—whether you succeed or fail. I can’t wait to keep playing what has become my favorite racing game of the past few years.
・GameBlast: 85/100 (PS5)
Breathtaking speed, unique handling for each ship, and a variety of events. Driven by these elements, *Star Wars: Galactic Racer* breathes new life into the arcade racing formula with its rewarding campaign structure.While it doesn’t quite transform the roguelike framework into replayability that lasts beyond the end credits, the magic of its first playthrough makes this one of the finest *Star Wars* games ever released.
・GIGA: 81/100 (PC)
“Star Wars: Galactic Racer” combines spectacular presentation with high-speed racing and roguelite gameplay that keeps you coming back for more. Its biggest drawback is that it pushes Star Wars’ most famous racing competition to the sidelines.
・4P.de: 80/100 (PC)
“Star Wars: Galactic Racer” is fast-paced, surprisingly challenging, and boasts a stunning atmosphere. While the roguelike campaign certainly isn’t for everyone, the racing itself is fantastic. If you love arcade racing games, this title truly shines—even if it does have a few balance issues.
・IGN: 80/100 (Xbox Series X)
