Heroes of the New Republic! Stalwarts of the Galactic Empire! Pilots, one and all.

We’re so glad to see how much you’ve been enjoying Star Wars™: Squadrons. Over the past few months, we’ve brought you a few surprise content drops, fixed bugs, added custom matches, and made balancing tweaks to the game. All the while, we’ve been having a blast watching the wonderful community-run tournaments you’ve been putting on, like ...

What do you mean?

This is pretty much it, yeah. No further content additions or changes are planned. We do have some balancing we're planning to do, though. More on that soon!

Oh, I know you! You were from Bungie. Big fan!

Educating your fellow pilots on proper flying formations and classical pieces? I can respect that.

Pilots,

The following are the bug fixes and changes we've made in Update 4.2.

See you in the stars, pilots.

General

• Fixed an issue where aim assist would not function as intended when firing lasers at a player who is drifting.

Custom Games

• Fixed an issue where music would overlap for a spectator in Custom Games
• Fixed an issue where the Flagship's health and shields would not display correctly on the tactical map.

Social

• Fixed an issue where text chat could stop functioning when using a controller.

Starfighters & Components

• The TIE defender's Concussion Missile cooldown has been increased from 2.3 seconds to 6 seconds.

Don't want to speak too soon, but it looks like things are resolving. Thanks for hanging in there and be gentle with the new players!

Sorry about this! A LOT of people are trying to get in right now. We're scaling up as quickly as we can but people are joining just as fast.

I love that B-wing. My favourite pilot in that video! I said the same quote in my head, haha!

That bombing run was gorgeous.

Make Keo proud, pilot.

It was an honour facing off against you, pilot. I know Ian (Tiberius) feels the same. You had some good plays!

Love this little collab. SWTOR is also doing something, too, if you play that game. Use the code "SQUADRONS" to unlock something neat!

I believe in you.

And with that, it's just about time for me to take my holiday, too. Thank you for being such a wonderful community this year. I couldn't have asked for better!

See you in the stars, pilots.

Edit: And thank you for the birthday wishes, too!

The following is a list of the fixes we’ve made in this update. With that, we’re heading out for our winter break and we’ll see you in the stars! Happy holidays, pilots! And may the Force be with you.

Punch it!

General

• Several backend improvements

Challenges

• Fixed an issue where the B-wing would not progress certain Challenges for Bombers

Cosmetic Customization

• Fixed an issue where the Valiant Focus visor wouldn't display correctly when worn by a Duros
• Fixed an issue where the thumbnail for the Recon Trainer helmet was incorrect

Custom Matches

• Fixed an issue where Steam usernames could be displayed with extra unintended characters
• Fixed an issue wher...

Yeah, but I'm not lying this time, haha!

If you still have access to that old EA account (or can ask your mother to do it), you could always unlink them from her account and link them to yours.

Or, if you have EA Play (or soon for Xbox Game Pass on PC), you can also try the games through there.

You should be good! If your Xbox account is connected to the same EA account as your PC's account, I think it'll work just fine! Sign in to EA.com to check which accounts are linked to it.

What's your in-game username? The security team I mean...uh...

Listen, I think you're cheating and should be banned just to be safe. Has nothing to do with that Palpatine.
