Until we see significant patches to Squadrons' PC version, I must advise prospective players to not buy the game on PC (yet). Early Tuesday, I received retail versions for PS4 and PC, which wasn't much time ahead of today's embargo but perhaps enough to write a tidy 'impressions' post about what fans could expect from the game's launch tomorrow-particularly its enticing VR mode, which is arguably the biggest VR-specific Star Wars flight experience yet.įurther Reading A Star Destroyer on your table: Ars reviews all three Star Wars miniatures gamesSince Ars is a PC-focused site, however, I have to begin any impressions with a dire warning.

For the past few years, we've seen EA try to claw back to solid footing with its Star Wars video games.
