Texas-based developer Aspyr, which was was also behind the new version of Jedi Academy, updated Episode I: Racer for the Switch and the PS4. The company’s VP of publishing, Elizabeth Howard, said in a statement:

“The beloved game has been modernized for the most optimal gaming experience on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4. Star Wars fans should get ready to steer their racer to victory and leave their opponents in the dust.”

The game features 25 playable characters, including Anakin Skywalker himself, and race tracks located across various Star Wars planets like Tatooine and Baroonda. Players can upgrade their podracers with the help of pit droids and play single-player campaigns or multiplayer matches via split-screen.
