#STAR WARS NEW REPUBLIC SHIPS UPDATE#

An update added the B-Wing to the bomber class for the New Republic and the TIE Defender for the fighter class of the Galactic Empire. Gameplay is class-based, with both the New Republic and the Empire having four starfighter classes that the player can choose from: Fighter ( TIE Fighter for the Empire and X-Wing for the Republic), Interceptor ( TIE Interceptor and A-Wing), Bomber ( TIE Bomber and Y-Wing), and Support ( TIE Reaper and U-Wing). Players can check the ship's status, shields and powers by viewing the instruments in the ship's cockpit. Completing Daily Challenges and Operation Challenges will also give players Glory, which can be spent on purchasing cosmetic unlocks. As players earn more experience, they can unlock new weapons, shields, upgrades and various cosmetic items for the pilot and their ship. Imperial starfighters do not have shields, resulting in other additions to their class so that the two teams would be balanced. In these ships, they can utilise the movement of power between the ship's functions of weaponry, shields and engines to defeat their opponents in combat.

Players take control of starfighters from either the Galactic Empire or the New Republic navy. Star Wars: Squadrons is a space combat game, played from a first-person perspective. The cockpit presents vital gameplay information to the player. Squadrons is played exclusively from a first-person perspective.
