EA Confirms Star Wars: Squadrons, Official Reveal Next Week

Star Wars: Squadrons

Electronic Arts have confirmed that Star Wars: Squadrons, a new game that leaked earlier today, will be officially revealed on June 15.

Star Wars: Squadrons first reported by Gamespot, a “Pilots wanted” image, along with a non-functional preorder link, appeared for a short time on the front page of Xbox.com. It was taken down immediately, but not before being seen and shared.

EA hasn’t given any details about the game yet, but it seems sure to be some kind of space warfare game. The picture features a Rebel and Imperial pilot flexing up for a faceoff, while starfighters from both sides charging at each other in the foreground. The YouTube caption also pointedly states, “Pilots wanted,” and you don’t hire pilots to explode at each other.

This might be the final title for Project Maverick, an unannounced Star Wars game that, in an entertaining twist, was leaked in March by the PSN Releases Twitter bot. The artwork that leaks out then was less on-the-nose, but it did highlight a squadron of X-Wings being stalked by a Star Destroyer through an asteroid field. A Star Destroyer can also be seen in the whole Squadrons art that EA revealed on Twitter.
