Electronic Arts and Lucasfilm Games’ turn-based tactics title Star Wars Zero Company is scheduled to launch on August 27, 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. A final-trailer update published by StarWars.com on August 17 and an updated EA support guide reconfirm the date and supported platforms.
A single-player turn-based tactics game
Zero Company is developed by Bit Reactor in collaboration with Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. Players command an unconventional unit operating during the final period of the Clone Wars. Its leader, Hawks, is described as a former Republic officer, while the wider squad can include operators from several backgrounds.
EA’s official gameplay overview says the roster combines authored characters who join through the story with custom operators recruited by the player. Custom characters can be adjusted through appearance, clothing, voice and name options. The game is presented as a single-player campaign; the official pages do not announce an online multiplayer mode.
Battlefield decisions and base management
Operator positions, abilities and relationships influence tactical choices during missions. EA says players return between operations to a base called the Den, where they interact with squad members, prepare equipment and plan later missions. The structure connects battlefield decisions with squad and base management inside one campaign.
StarWars.com’s final-trailer article focuses on new gameplay footage and repeats the August 27 release date. It identifies PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S as launch platforms. No official Nintendo Switch or previous-generation console version has been announced, so claims about those systems should not be treated as confirmed.
Release time and PC requirements
EA’s purchase page lists availability for 3 p.m. UTC on August 27. Regional storefront timers can still be adjusted by platform, making the player’s own store page the most reliable place to confirm a local unlock. The global date itself is consistent across EA, StarWars.com and the platform listings.
An EA Help guide updated on August 21 states that Zero Company will be available worldwide on August 27 and lists its PC system requirements. The guide also collects platform and edition information. PC players should compare their hardware with the current official requirements before launch because support documentation can receive later revisions.
Standard and Deluxe editions
EA offers a standard edition and a Deluxe edition containing additional cosmetic material. The disclosed pre-purchase items also focus on cosmetic droid appearances and related customization. The official descriptions do not say that these items change the core mechanics of the main campaign.
Prices differ by platform and territory, so describing one amount as a universal price would be misleading. Pre-purchase offers can also change over time. The confirmed elements are the August 27 date, the three platform groups, the single-player turn-based structure and the editions described by EA.
Status before release
The final trailer and updated support guide indicate that the core release date and platform plan remain unchanged shortly before launch. Review scores, public-server performance or post-launch technical quality cannot yet be established because the game has not entered general release. Those matters will require separate evidence after players receive access.
