## Key points

- Galactic Racer feels like Burnout in everything but name.
- Fuse Games is led by former Criterion staff.
- The writer sees it as a blueprint for Burnout’s return.

## Summary

The writer argues that Star Wars: Galactic Racer captures the speed, handling and aggressive crashes that made the Burnout series distinctive. They see the game as both a welcome arcade racer in its own right and a possible model for bringing Burnout back.

Galactic Racer is made by Guildford-based Fuse Games, which is led by former Criterion staff. The writer points to its fast podracing, drifting and boosting, rival takedowns, timed challenges similar to Burnout’s Road Rage, and cinematic crashes. They note that the game lacks a Crash mode and that its damage modelling may be less convincing than Burnout’s.
