Over a year after it was finally revealed, the upcoming strategy game Star Wars Zero Company has been rated in Korea, suggesting an imminent release date announcement.
Despite only being officially unveiled around a week before Star Wars Celebration just over a year ago, Star Wars Zero Company has been a long time coming. Reports of Bit Reactor – a new studio at the time, formed by former Firaxis devs – working on a Star Wars game emerged in 2022, with more details coming out a few years later that shed light on what type of strategy game it would be. Safe to say, people have been waiting a while for it, and thankfully, it seems like that wait won't be too much longer.
As spotted by a user on ResetEra, Korea's Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC) published its age rating for Star Wars Zero Company. The rating given to the game says it's appropriate for ages 15 and up, citing realistic depictions of violence and vulgar language being used within gameplay. Interestingly, the GRAC rating also cites the game's ESRB rating as T, suggesting the ESRB has rated it despite the rating not being publicly available yet.
As someone who saw Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and thought it was so obnoxiously terrible that it single-handedly put me off of caring about anything Star Wars since (I know Andor seems fantastic, maybe one day), I'm counting on Zero Company to be the thing that gets me back into the franchise, cause Star Wars XCOM seems like an easy slam dunk – especially one set in the Clone Wars era. I just hope it doesn't suffer the fate of Marvel's Midnight Suns, where everyone loves it, but "everyone" is the 10 people who actually bought it.
