After last week’s Star Wars: Galactic Racer gameplay trailer reveal, IGN sat down with the game’s makers for an in-depth chat revealing its new systems and story mode, and a proper discussion on why this marks the triumphant return of track-based racing, after so many open world games.



Am I old, or out of touch? Why would a racing game be open world?
probably because of NFS, Burnout, Forza, even Mario Kart being largely open world now
Yeah, it’s exactly where the genre started to lose me, haha.
Same. I want to race, not spend my time driving to the race.
