Star Wars: Zero Company — Story & Setting

Story Overview

Star Wars Zero Company puts players in control of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads an elite squad of cunning operatives. As an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy, Zero Company must set aside their differences to take on an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked.

While fans have seen larger-than-life Jedi Masters and galactic politicians in The Clone Wars animated series, Zero Company promises a boots-on-the-ground perspective of the conflict never seen before, taking players and their squad across the galaxy to places both strange and recognizable.

“This isn't just a Clone Wars game,” says Executive Producer Orion Kellogg. “This is a game in the Clone Wars, but from a new angle. This is really Bit Reactor's vision. It's their Star Wars story and we're here to help them tell it. You're also going to see influence from the political intrigue of Andor; you're going to see the gritty battles of Rogue One. You're going to see the wit and wisdom of A New Hope.”

“While the game is set against the epic backdrop of the Clone Wars, Zero Company gets embroiled in a shadow war that no conventional army is equipped to counter,” revealed Narrative and Cinematic Director Aaron Contreras. “And the Hawks you create is going to need some help to stop this mysterious, corrupting force.”

Game Director Greg Foertsch adds: “This is a Star Wars game where you can really have a found family. You're playing with multiple characters, leveling them up, building their relationships and their bonds. For me, ever since being a 4 year old seeing the original Star Wars in the theaters, it's always been about found family.”
