Can you play Star Wars: Galactic Racer on TV without a console?
Yes. From October 6, Shadow PC streams the full PC version of Star Wars: Galactic Racer to your TV in up to 4K, with DLSS. No console and no tower: just the Shadow app and a controller.
So, what do you need to race
Galactic Racer on your TV?
Your couch, your TV and a controller. That's the whole setup. Galactic Racer lands on October 6, and its PC version, with DLSS and high-end settings, expects a real gaming rig: an RTX 2060 at the very least, a 50 GB SSD install, more to see it at its best. That kind of machine runs well over $1,000 and rarely belongs under a TV. Shadow PC streams a real Windows gaming PC to your screen instead. Your Steam or Epic copy, your saves, on the big screen.
Why Shadow PC is the best PC to play Star Wars: Galactic Racer
1. Day-one racing, straight to your TV
From October 6, a dedicated NVIDIA RTX GPU in the cloud runs the full PC release of Galactic Racer, and your TV simply shows the race. Open the Shadow app on Apple TV, Android TV, or a Samsung or LG smart TV, and you're on the grid. Power brings 20 GB of VRAM and 28 GB of RAM, more than the game asks for, even at recommended settings. Nothing to buy, nothing to wire behind the screen.
2. Jakku at full throttle, in 4K with DLSS
Fuse Games dropped split-screen to pour everything into one full-screen experience, and a big TV is where that choice pays off. Jakku's dunes in Unreal Engine 5, podracers flat out, rivals slammed and shunted off the track, all streamed in 4K on Power with NVIDIA DLSS on. The Shadow app outputs at your TV's native resolution, so every takedown stays sharp from the couch.
3. From the couch to every screen you own
Pair an Xbox, PlayStation or 8BitDo controller and race. Your Shadow PC is the same machine wherever you open it, so your Galactic League progress is waiting on a laptop or phone the next day. Online, up to 12 pilots race with crossplay across PC, PS5 and Xbox. In the living room, Ethernet or Wi-Fi 6 on a stable 50 Mb/s line keeps it smooth. Galactic Racer runs on the screens you already own, thanks to Shadow PC.

Power is the Shadow PC made for Galactic Racer on the big screen
For Galactic Racer on a living-room TV, we recommend Power. Its RTX GPU with 20 GB of VRAM and its 28 GB of RAM sit above the game's recommended specs, so you can push 4K, switch DLSS on and keep every race sharp on a big screen, then carry on from any laptop, tablet or phone you already own.

The official minimum is an Intel Core i5-8400 or Ryzen 5 2600, 12 GB of RAM, an RTX 2060 or equivalent and 50 GB on an SSD, on Windows 10. Reported recommended specs point to an RTX 3060 Ti and 16 GB of RAM. Power, with 20 GB of VRAM and 28 GB of RAM, sits above both.
Nothing announced blocks it. As of September 30, 2026, the game ships on Steam and the Epic Games Store with Denuvo anti-tamper, which is copy protection rather than an anti-cheat, and no anti-cheat has been announced. Compatibility is checked again at launch, and this page will be updated on October 6.
