Developer EA Motive has dropped a new update for Star Wars: Squadrons on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. The free batch of content, all part of Update 4.0, adds new ships, fixes bugs, and introduces custom matches, among other things. The patch notes are outlined below.
Two new ships are available to pilot: the New Republic's B-Wing bomber and the TIE Defender starfighter on the Empire's side. While both ships will be able to use all the components found within their respective classes, the two do have unique aspects about them. The B-Wing has a gyro-cockpit and swiveling wings while the TIE Defender has enhanced shielding. This will help differentiate the two ships from the plethora of other available bombers and starfighters.
Perhaps one of the most attention-grabbing additions of Update 4.0 for Star Wars: Squadrons is the introduction of custom matches to its online multiplayer. This feature works just as expected. Players can set up matches with their friends on any one of the seven available maps, applying modifiers and restrictions to create a truly custom gameplay experience. On top of custom matches, EA Motive is also adding a custom match server browser, where players can sift through various private matches created by friends and strangers alike.
