In a post on VentureBeat in-the-know journalist Jeff Grubb revealed more details on Star Wars Squadrons.

Sources told Grubb that Star Wars Squadrons will be a space combat game where fighter ships face off in head-to-head battles.

There will be a single player campaign but the main focus will be on multiplayer which will offer team battles featuring iconic Star Wars fighter ships.

It is believed that EA are planning to release Star Wars Squadrons this autumn on consoles and PCs.

EA has had mixed fortunes with their Star Wars games, but this all changed with last year's Jedi Fallen Order which was warmly received by gamers and critics alike.

Fans will surely be hoping that EA continues this run of form with Star Wars Squadrons, with plenty of excitement already swirling around today's reveal.

Dogfighting games have long been a big draw for Star Wars, with undoubtedly the best examples of this being the Rogue Squadron games.

This series first debuted on PCs and the N64 towards the end of the 90s, with great arcade-style gameplay and stunning visuals that still are impressive to this day.
