    Star Wars: Squadrons has its heart in the right place and a comprehensive, in-depth set of flight mechanics go a long way towards realising that childhood dream of piloting an X-Wing. It achieves the vision in some ways, but in others, the package lacks excitement and content. While excellent PSVR support will be enough for some, a boring story and inadequate multiplayer modes leave a lot to be desired.

    Star Wars: Squadrons is a wonderful entry in EA’s use of the license. It took long enough to get a proper dogfighting game, but the one they deliver should appease fans. The campaign is short, but sweet. The online is a blast with friends, and I hope it continues to flourish with players for a long time.

    STAR WARS: Squadrons

    It is an okay game for me as I don't like ace combat kind of games. The plane is always in cockpit view, which I didn't liked. While playing on an ultrawide screen will surely be an immersive experience in this game.

    Slow space fighter sim combat

    So I played Chorus, which is a fast paced space fighter sim, right before this. I had so much fun with Chorus that I wanted to play another space fighter sim. And while I am a huge Star Wars fan and have lots of nostalgia for the old X-Wing games, Chorus just really outshined this game for me. I also encountered a few mission bugs that required me to restart missions and when missions take 20-30 minutes each, that was just painful. And so I put it down and decided I'm probably done. Played about 6 hours. This is not a BAD game. It definitely captures the nostalgia I wanted, but it just wasn't as fun as I was hoping.
