Star Wars Zero Company PC: Stores, Performance & What to Expect
Short answer
The PC version launched on August 27, 2026 across three storefronts: Steam, the EA App, and the Epic Games Store. It is a full release, not a timed console exclusive in either direction. The important caveat is performance: launch-week reporting found problems on a wide range of hardware, so check your setup before buying.
Where to buy on PC
- Steam — standard listing, achievements included.
- EA App — the publisher’s own storefront.
- Epic Games Store — third PC storefront option.
All three sell the same Standard and Deluxe editions. For pricing, see the price page.
The launch performance picture
IGN Nordic’s launch-week piece tried the game on five different PCs and described the experience as a nightmare — issues appeared across multiple hardware configurations, which suggests the problems are not limited to one GPU vendor or one tier of hardware. Separate coverage points to Denuvo anti-tamper being present in the PC build; whether it contributes to performance issues is correlation only, not an established cause.
Practical consequences:
- If your hardware sits near the requirements boundary, expect to tune settings.
- Community and press settings guides already exist for squeezing out stable framerates.
- Early patches are likely; launch-week performance at this state is a known issue, not an edge case.
Settings and workarounds
Destructoid published a graphics settings guide aimed at reducing lag and maximizing FPS, which is the best starting point if you hit issues. The broader troubleshooting picture — including what is known about optimization state — is covered on the performance page.
FAQ
Which PC store should I buy it on?
All three storefronts (Steam, EA App, Epic) sell the same game. Choose based on where you keep your library; feature differences are minor.
Will it run on my PC?
Check the system requirements page — and keep in mind that even recommended-spec hardware has shown issues at launch.
Is there Denuvo?
Yes, the PC build includes Denuvo anti-tamper per its Steam listing. Its performance impact is unproven.
Is the PC version feature-complete?
Yes — same campaign, same editions. Mod support and Steam Deck compatibility are separate questions covered on their own pages.
