About the game
A tactical war beneath the Clone Wars
Star Wars Zero Company is a single-player turn-based tactics game developed by Bit Reactor, published by Electronic Arts, and made in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games. Set during the twilight of the Clone Wars, it follows Hawks, a former Galactic Republic officer leading an unconventional company of operatives for hire.
The campaign combines isometric tactical battles with squad management at The Den. Players recruit and customize Operators, manage injuries and Bonds, improve facilities, modify weapons, spend Intel on Operations, build Influence across regions, and make decisions that can change relationships and future missions.
What makes Zero Company different
Three-AP tactical combat
Each Operator normally receives three Action Points per turn for movement, attacks and abilities, creating flexible combinations instead of rigid move-then-shoot turns.
Operators you can lose
Injuries accumulate when Operators are downed, while optional permadeath can permanently remove squad members and turn roster management into a campaign-level decision.
Bonds with combat consequences
Relationships are more than dialogue. Strong Bonds unlock Cross Training bonuses and special passive benefits that directly improve squad performance.
A living base of operations
The Den connects missions with recruitment, healing, equipment, upgrades, customization, conversations and strategic decisions between deployments.
