Star Wars: Squadrons Reviews
Star Wars: Squadrons offers a great experience within its proposal – the combat in classic ships of the franchise – with a satisfactory campaign and a robust multiplayer mode. With a competent look, its greatest strength is, in fact, in the sharp and balanced gameplay, not forgetting the franchise's inevitable appeal to fans of all ages.

Star Wars: Squadrons is exactly what it sets out to be: a modern revival of the old-school Star Wars flight simulators. It isn't particularly ambitious, but it is a lot of fun. Just being able to zoom through the wreckage of a ship battle while trying to get a bead on that darn X-Wing is enough to keep your attention for a while. The game lives and dies by its multiplayer, and hopefully the community is thriving for a while. Do you want to pilot an X-Wing? Then Squadrons is the game for you. Die-hard simulator fans might find it to be too simple for their tastes.
Star Wars: Squadrons presents what we want from space combat with smooth control over the space fighters and the chaotic, exciting battles. Although it needs continuous support as it lacks content at the time being.

The multiplayer is not earth-shattering, but it is fun at least for a while. Despite all the initial reservations, Squadrons turned out to be a good game, with intense action, plenty of room to personalize the experience, and lots of fun. Squadrons is not a trap, but a rather pleasant surprise.
This is a little-big surprise from EA with great acion gameplay mainly in multiplayer. An interesting singleplayer campaign is the only thing it lacks.

Star Wars: Squadrons provides a well-grounded, in-depth gameplay that hardcore fans and flight-simulator veterans will definitely appreciate. It may not have the strongest story in a Star Wars game, but it does wonders in space combat and gameplay, this is where Star Wars: Squadrons gets it right.
Star Wars: Squadrons is a pleasant surprise, offering a solid and enjoyable gameplay experience reminiscent of classic trilogies. The multiplayer modes extend its value, especially at a reduced price.

If you want to feel, really truly feel, like you’re flying a TIE Fighter or an X-Wing, Star Wars: Squadrons is a must. Even if you have zero interest in Star Wars, the feeling of being a starship pilot is exhilarating in and of itself.
Star Wars: Squadrons is worth buying, not only if you are a fan of Star Wars.

Star Wars Squadrons truly shines in its VR form as you enter grand scale space warfare. Although a bit light on content, the game offers up great gameplay, even when you're not in virtual reality. It's a shame, the story doesn't live up to more recent Star Wars stories though.

Although there’s a bit less to the game than I’d have hoped for, Star Wars: Squadrons is well worth the price of admission, and there’s plenty of enjoyment to be found.
Star Wars: Squadrons lets fans live their dreams of being a pilot, successfully immersing us in a galaxy far, far away.
Star Wars: Squadrons has great flight mechanics, graphics, and highly detailed cockpits that will make you feel immersed in its epic battles. Unfortunately, it falls short in form of only 6 maps and boring consmetics. Perhaps developers should have focused on adding more multiplayer content and fixing unfair matchmaking instead of making an average campaign.

Where’s my Slave One? Where’s the Battle of Hoth? When it comes to starship battles, “Star Wars: Squadrons” could easily beat up “Battleftont II”. Unfortunately Motive Studios have lost their chance for success.

The ultimate Star Wars dogfighting game since Rogue Squadron, plain and simple. It's smaller than you might expect in scope but it gets the job done considering its budget price, with an engaging campaign that gets you up and running with the basics and a multiplayer that repeats the addictive gameplay. You could ask for more but it doesn't from you so it's a fair deal.

An innovative flight shooter, squadrons brings the essence of star Wars dogfights in great fashion, while it does lack some ground levels. The gameplay and the control scheme are really impressive.

However, even without VR, the gameplay at its core is balanced and meticulous enough to keep the player busy for a long time.

Not only since the great air battles in Star Wars: Battlefront I wished for a great space shooter with a story. It didn't even have to be Star Wars, but the way it turned out is of course great. The fact that you can also add a great VR mode is of course mega great, because the additionally released Rogue One - Mission for Battlefront was also very strong. Here EA seems to have not only heard the call of the fans but also followed it. And Motive Studio did the whole thing really great. Yes, I have listed what I was missing or what I would have liked to have - given away. Maybe DLCs will provide us with more. You should also consider that Star Wars Squadrons is not a full-price title, but what is offered is definitely more than satisfactory and a clear recommendation to buy - but not for Star Wars fans - for them it is almost obligatory!

If you are looking for that Star Wars fix until the next game appears or just as a way to get all Star Wars after watching Season 2 of the Mandalorian which kicks off this week, Squadrons has more than enough for the low price to make it satisfying for any fan whilst deliver an experience if you want an arcade flight shooter or a more hands on flight simulator style approach.
The PlayStation 2’s Star Wars Battlefront II is a much loved game in my brother and I’s collection. Countless hours spent playing heroes vs villains mainly, but also taking down star destroyers in the space battles. I was pretty dreadful, confusing myself by spinning around and blowing myself up…but it was fun nontheless! The news of Star Wars: Squadrons had me longing to relive those days. With the new Battlefront‘s exclusion of space battles, they seemed lost to nostalgia. Though they were introduced in the second installation of the series, there were mixed opinions. So does Star Wars: Squadrons get space battles right once and for all? Let’s find out.
