Star Wars Galactic Racer review: now this is frenetically fun podracing with a totally unforgiving streak
Becoming a boost junkie in arcade racers that offer such potent bursts of extra oomph is usually only a matter of time. Star Wars: Galactic Racer is no different. The hooks have been in deep. The vast majority of the builds I’ve pulled together in runs through its singleplayer campaign have lived and died in their effectiveness by the two types of boost you can cram into your landspeeder, speeder…
In Star Wars: Galactic Racer, becoming a boost junkie is an inevitable experience in arcade racers that offer such powerful bursts of speed. The game presents players with two primary types of boost: afterburner and ramjet. Afterburner, the less potent option, can be deployed at any time once it has been built up. On the other hand, ramjet is more powerful but must be deployed in a continuous chain without taking your finger off the button, overheating, or running into any obstacles that force you back to regular speed.
Both boost types are separately upgradeable as players progress through a rogue-lite style run of Galactic League tournament events across various planetary biomes.
