Star Wars Zero Company's Best Comparison Isn't XCOM Anymore

Since its April 2025 reveal, the shorthand for Star Wars Zero Company has largely stayed the same: this is XCOM but Star Wars. Of course, that's a fair enough starting point given the resumes involved. That said, the recent preview wave that landed its August 27 release suggests the title has outgrown prior comparisons; according to several outlets who've gotten their hands on Star Wars Zero Company, it's beginning to be quite reminiscent of Mass Effect.
