Zynga has announced plans to bring Star Wars: Hunters to PC via Steam Early Access in 2025.

Star Wars: Hunters is a free-to-download team-based battle arena game that launched on Nintendo Switch and iOS and Android in June. IGN’s Star Wars: Hunters review returned a 7/10. We said: “Star Wars: Hunters’ lighthearted PvP fun is like a party at the Death Star: Impressive for a bit, but probably not a place you’ll want to hang around for too long.”

Take-Two-owned Zynga is best known for mobile games FarmVille, Words with Friends, and CSR Racing, but with Star Wars: Hunters it branched out to console for the first time. Similarly, Star Wars: Hunters, developed by its development studio NaturalMotion, is the first Zynga-published game to launch on PC.

The PC build features higher resolution textures and shadows, higher rendering quality, and a high detail PC layer in select battlefields, zynga said. Keyboard, mouse, and wireless controller support will be added and players can also utilize keybinding.

“The success of Star Wars: Hunters on mobile and Nintendo Switch devices has led to our decision to expand the game to PC,” commented Yaron Leyvan, executive vice president, games, at Zynga. “This is something our community of fans have been asking for and we are very excited to welcome even more players to Vespaara. This moment also marks a milestone for Zynga as we bring one of our games to PC for the first time.”

Zynga’s note to press fails to mention Star Wars: Hunters coming to other consoles, such as the Xbox Series X and S and the PlayStation 5. Players can get an early look and help test the PC version by signing up for the upcoming closed beta. Expect more details soon.

It’s a busy time in the world of Star Wars video games, with a number of high-profile projects in the works. Respawn’s Star Wars Jedi 3, Quantic Dream’s Star Wars Eclipse, and Amy Hennig’s untitled Star Wars game are just three due out in the coming years.
