11This page covers the sound of Star Wars: Galactic Racer: the orchestral score, the soundtrack album, and the actors who voice its main characters. Most of it was introduced through the studio's Sounds of the Galactic League series, which ran in September 2026 in the weeks before the October 6 release. How the game was made more broadly is covered on Development.22The Score44The score is composed by Gordy Haab, working with Nathaniel Daw, Fuse Games' Music and Narrative Director. It was recorded at the Vienna Synchron Stage, and the first Sounds of the Galactic League installment went behind the scenes at those sessions, with Haab and Daw discussing how they approached it. The studio describes the result as a score that captures the style of the Star Wars galaxy together with the energy of a high-stakes racing game.66The audio team's work goes beyond music. When the Game Director was asked what he was proudest of, the audio team's contribution to how the game feels to play was one of the three things he named.99In October 2026 the game was nominated for Best Audio Design at an annual games awards event decided by public vote. The audio team said the aim from the start had been a player-first, cinematic and authentic Star Wars racing experience.10+In October 2026 the game was nominated for Best Audio Design at a games awards event that held a public vote, which closed on October 23, 2026.

An official music video for the main theme was published on October 9, 2026.1515The published track listing is below. Several titles name places and moments from the game, but they are music titles rather than a list of circuits, so they are not taken here as confirmation of any particular track or event. The worlds that have been confirmed are on Planets and Circuits.1717No.TitleLength1The Soul of Racing (Main Theme)2:142This Is the Galactic League5:383Journey to Jakku2:154Star Destroyer Speedway3:435Impeding!1:476Rivers of Sentinel I1:487Acid Dash3:238Welcome to Lantaana1:519Geothermal Jungle3:2710Hunk of Junk1:0211Full Throttle, Shade!5:1812Menacing Ball of Ice1:4313Andobi Edge3:3614Kick Up a Storm1:5115Rhodochrosite Run3:2916The Greatest Spectacle1:0617Glorious Derven Acos1:3318Galactic Gauntlet3:4719Ultimate Racing Vehicle2:2520Faster and Stronger5:5521Memories of Podracing3:471919Voice Cast2020Three performers had been announced as of October 2, 2026.

Kris Laudrum provides the voice, while Mark Bridges, Fuse Games' Design Director, performed the character's motion capture. Daw has described Laudrum's Kestar as dripping with arrogance, with fear underneath: someone terrified of not living up to his father's expectations. Daw has said, "We knew from the first ‘Impeding!’ that Kestar Bool needed to be instantly established as the entitled Caskadag that he is," and the same word is the title of the album's fifth track.2525Spoken dialogue is recorded in English only.
