With an overwhelming positive reaction and a thriving player community, Star Wars: Squadrons is flying high.

And the grateful Star Wars: Squadrons team is saying thank you this holiday season with a free, two-part content update. A new multiplayer map, Fostar Haven, and four new ship components will be added this month, and two new starfighters and custom matches will be deployed in December.

But inside? “I remember just thinking, ‘Come on, man!’”
