Squadron 42 Steam page goes live with system requirements and a Q2 2027 release window

Squadron 42 now has a Steam page listing system requirements and a Q2 2027 release date. The requirements make no mention of ray tracing-capable GPUs or DirectX 12, though the install size is still 150GB. Game director Chris Roberts said in August that the Star Citizen singleplayer component was delayed out of 2026 to avoid clashing with GTA 6, and a new trailer featuring Mark Hamill and Gary Oldman accompanied the page.
