					<description><![CDATA[Star Wars: Galactic Racer have just let one of its biggest remaining secrets slip a little early. Several new images were briefly added to the game’s Steam store page, including fresh screenshots and marketing artwork that appeared to contain both release date and pre-order information. Those assets were later pulled, but not before we spotted the details. Because the live Steam page currently still lists the game with a broader 2026 window, the surfaced date still sits in leak territory rather than full official confirmation. The leaked date is October 6, 2026 The leak points to October 6, 2026 as the launch date for Star Wars: Galactic Racer, with the surfaced material also mentioning pre-order bonuses. While that date is not currently shown on the public Steam listing, the game’s digital storefront presence has clearly been expanding, and the broader rollout makes the timing believable. So no, Lucasfilm has not...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A major UK fan event just dropped off the calendar. London Film and Comic Con 2026 has been cancelled, according to reporting from Fantha Tracks, which says there will be no 2026 edition of the long-running convention. The same outlet notes that guests who had already been announced for the 2026 show are now being shifted toward other Showmasters events instead. That is a pretty significant blow for convention fans, especially with LFCC usually sitting as one of the bigger annual genre gatherings in the UK. The cancellation is notable because other Showmasters events are still moving What makes this more interesting is that this does not look like a full stop for Showmasters activity in 2026. Fantha Tracks had already been covering London Comic Con Spring 2026 at Olympia earlier this year, including multiple guest announcements, and those posts explicitly referenced the return of that event after the cancellation...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There is some sad news for long-time Star Wars: The Old Republic fans and for people who have spent years listening to familiar voices across games, TV, and commercials. Ralph Gunderman, who provided additional voices in Star Wars: The Old Republic, has died at the age of 77. The Hollywood Reporter reports that Gunderman died on March 1 at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York from complications of pneumonia, citing a family spokesperson. For SWTOR players, Gunderman was not one of the big headline names on the poster, but he was part of the wider voice fabric that helped make the galaxy feel lived in. His IMDb credits include Star Wars: The Old Republic (2011) among his game work, listing him under additional voices. That kind of credit can be easy to overlook, but in a game as massive and dialogue-heavy as SWTOR, those supporting performances matter a lot. And...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The box office story around The Mandalorian &#38; Grogu just got a little more interesting. After some earlier softer-looking chatter around the film’s commercial prospects, Boxoffice Pro’s latest long-range forecast now says the movie could open in the $90 million to $100 million range domestically when it hits theaters on May 22, 2026. That would be a meaningful shift in tone around the film’s launch outlook, even if the upper end still would not put it near the biggest modern Star Wars openings. That is the key thing here: this is better, but it is not suddenly a “Star Wars is back to automatic $150M openings” story. Better than the gloomier narrative According to Boxoffice Pro’s long-range forecast, a $100 million opening would still rank as the lowest Star Wars debut since Solo: A Star Wars Story, which opened to $84.4 million in 2018. The same report notes that The...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Andor Season 2 is no longer just a nominee. It is now officially a Peabody Award winner, giving Lucasfilm’s most prestige-coded Star Wars series another serious trophy on the shelf. The 86th Peabody winners were announced by the Peabody Awards, and Andor (Season 2) appears among this year’s winners in Entertainment. That makes this a pretty big follow-up to the earlier nomination story. This is not Andor’s first Peabody win What makes the update even stronger is that this is not the first time Andor has pulled this off. The Peabody Awards previously honored the series at the 83rd Annual Peabody Awards for its first season, which means the show has now won Peabody recognition twice. Jedi News also noted that Season 1 had already won a Peabody, making this latest result feel less like a fluke and more like a pattern. And honestly, that feels extremely on-brand for Andor....]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Seven years ago today, Star Wars Battlefront II got one of its most important Clone Wars-era updates. On April 24, 2019, DICE rolled out the Giants Above Kachirho Update, bringing Kashyyyk – Kachirho Beach into Capital Supremacy. The official patch notes listed the new map as the headline addition, while later summaries of the game’s update history also note that April 24 was the date Kashyyyk joined the mode. That may sound like a smaller content drop now, but at the time, it mattered a lot. Capital Supremacy was still the big new thing When Capital Supremacy launched in March 2019, it instantly felt like the mode Battlefront II had been missing. Bigger battles, AI soldiers, command posts, and ship assaults gave the game a more ambitious, large-scale Clone Wars identity. EA’s own follow-up coverage in spring 2019 made it clear that more locations were already planned, with Kashyyyk arriving...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Twelve years ago, the Star Wars galaxy changed in a way that still shapes gaming conversations now. On April 25, 2014, Lucasfilm published its now-famous announcement, “The Legendary Star Wars Expanded Universe Turns a New Page,” confirming that the old Expanded Universe would be rebranded as Star Wars Legends. That move hit books and comics hardest in the public conversation, but it also changed the status of a huge chunk of Star Wars gaming history overnight. That meant a long list of beloved titles — from Knights of the Old Republic and Jedi Knight to The Force Unleashed, Republic Commando, and Dark Forces — were no longer part of the main official canon timeline. They were still Star Wars. Still playable. Still important. But now they lived under the Legends banner instead. The day old Star Wars games entered a different timeline For a lot of players, this was the...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Star Wars: Starfighter has moved into a very important phase of production: the part where the footage stops being potential and starts becoming an actual movie. Speaking to Variety at the Breakthrough Prize Ceremony, director Shawn Levy said he is currently editing the film, describing himself as being in the “beautiful sanctity of the edit room” while shaping the movie ahead of its 2027 release. As Levy put it, “We don’t come out until next year,” adding that he is in the “dark quiet of the edit room finding the best possible shape for the film.” The quote comes from Variety’s recent interview with Levy. That is not exactly a flashy reveal, but it is the kind of update that makes the project feel more real. Earlier official coverage from StarWars.com’s original announcement of Star Wars: Starfighter confirmed that the film stars Ryan Gosling, is directed by Shawn Levy, and...]]></description>

The special-look IMAX fan events for The Mandalorian &#38; Grogu on May the 4th are now officially sold out, according to Star Wars’ own social posts announcing the sellout. The events were set up as free advance screenings at select IMAX theaters around the world, giving fans an early look at more than 25 minutes of footage from the movie ahead of its full theatrical release. And honestly, that is a pretty strong signal. Fans moved fast on this one Lucasfilm and IMAX only just started pushing the event publicly, with trade coverage confirming that the May 4 screenings would include more than 25 minutes of exclusive footage, special fan giveaways, and a new poster at select locations. Boxoffice Pro reported the event on April 23, framing it as a global May the 4th fan push tied directly to the movie’s theatrical rollout. Now the...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Gina Carano story is not over yet, even if the legal fight is. After settling her lawsuit with Disney and Lucasfilm in August 2025, Carano says she has already spoken with both Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. The detail comes from Carano’s appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, later picked up by multiple outlets, where she described a post-settlement Zoom call with the two Mandalorian creatives as warm and surprisingly natural. According to Carano, the conversation did not sound tense at all. As quoted by CinemaBlend’s write-up of the interview, she said, “I’ve already had a conversation with Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau,” describing both as “really lovely,” and said the call happened after the lawsuit was settled. She also recalled Favreau joking, “So, where did we leave off?” That is the headline. The more complicated part is what it actually means. The lawsuit is over, but a return...]]></description>
