This morning, EA released a 7-minute long CG short called “Hunted” for Squadrons, and you’ve got to see it.

Keep Going!

“Hunted” introduces us to Imperial pilot Varko Grey, one of the main characters in the game. In the short, we see the New Republic forces in a heated space battle against the remaining Imperial forces around the dockyards of Var-Shaa.

ILM (Industrial Light and Magic) and LucasFilm collaborated on this project with EA.

EA has confirmed that players who pre-order “Star Wars: Squadrons” will get access to cosmetic items shown in “Hunted.”

Dat. Music.
