Fuse Games has announced that Star Wars: Galactic Racer, its critically acclaimed anti-grav racing title, will receive an update doubling the multiplayer party size from three to six players. The studio confirmed the change on Tuesday via the game’s official social media channels, responding directly to community feedback that emerged shortly after launch and promising the patch would arrive within the first few weeks of the game’s release.
The announcement arrives just days after Star Wars: Galactic Racer debuted as a broadly well-received title, earning praise from critics for its fast-paced racing and its revival of a beloved corner of the franchise. But amid the enthusiasm came a recurring concern from players about the multiplayer experience, specifically the cap that limited parties to three participants. Fuse Games acknowledged those concerns head-on, signaling that it had been actively working on a fix.
Hearing the Community Out Loud
The developer addressed the issue directly in response to fans raising the party-size limitation across multiple online threads. In its official statement, Fuse Games did not mince words about taking ownership of the feedback.
“Thank you so much for your feedback and we’d like to let you and everyone on this thread know that we hear you. We’re working on an update to increase the party size from three to six players, with the aim of releasing it within the first few weeks of launch.”

The studio added that more details would be shared soon, leaving players anticipating a fuller breakdown of the patch’s contents and rollout timeline. The commitment to ship the update within the opening weeks of launch underscores how seriously Fuse Games is treating early-player sentiment, even as it balances other post-launch priorities.
A Frantic Racer That Rekindles the Galaxy
The multiplayer adjustment lands at a pivotal moment for Star Wars: Galactic Racer. has responded via the game’s official social media. The title has proven itself a hit on multiple fronts, with critics and fans alike embracing its approach to galactic racing.
IGN’s Star Wars: Galactic Racer review called it “a fabulous looking and frantically fast anti-grav racer… that has successfully lit the afterburners on a long-dormant slice of the Star Wars universe.” That assessment captures why the multiplayer question matters so much to the game’s longevity. Anti-grav racing is inherently social, and limiting parties to three players left many in the community feeling the experience fell short of its potential for group play.
By doubling that cap to six, Fuse Games effectively transforms how friends can gather in the cockpit together, opening the door to larger races, more chaotic scrums, and a richer party atmosphere. The change also aligns with expectations for a title built around shared, high-energy competition—precisely the kind of experience that keeps players returning across launch windows.
Looking Ahead
The six-player update is slated to land within the first few weeks of Star Wars: Galactic Racer’s launch, though Fuse Games has not yet pinned down an exact date. The studio indicated that additional details would follow shortly, and players are expected to watch official channels for a formal patch announcement.
