The Clone Wars Voices Are Back
Ahead of its Saturday SDCC panel, Star Wars: Zero Company revealed its full voice cast — and the headline is a genuine reunion: Matt Lanter returns as Anakin Skywalker, and Dee Bradley Baker voices the squad’s lead clone trooper, Trick. Both actors are reprising roles they originated on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which is as close to an instant credibility stamp as this genre gets.
Why It Matters for Dads
For anyone who came around on Star Wars animation the honest way — bouncing off The Clone Wars at first, then getting hooked once the show found its footing in its later seasons — this cast reveal lands differently than a normal game-marketing beat. Matt Lanter’s Anakin and Dee Bradley Baker’s clone-trooper work are two of the most recognizable voices in the entire Clone Wars era, and bringing both back for an original squad story (set during the same period, not a retread) suggests Lucasfilm is treating this as a genuine extension of that show’s world rather than a cheap cash-in on the name.
BitReactor’s pedigree (built from ex-Firaxis XCOM developers) plus a turn-based tactics format is also a good match for the way a lot of us actually play these days: a title built around short, planned turns rather than twitch reflexes, which fits a stolen-hour gaming schedule far better than another live-service shooter would.

The Clone Wars-era tactics game from BitReactor — pre-order ahead of its August 27, 2026 release.
What’s Next
Zero Company’s SDCC panel — with Baker, Freeman, Rekha Sharma, and Vic Michaelis in the room — runs Saturday, July 25, and should show the first real gameplay footage rather than just cast names. We’ll cover whatever ships out of that panel, and our full review lands around the August 27 release. If you want the animated backstory these actors are reprising, the Clone Wars seasons are streaming now — and worth the slow first season to get to the genuinely great back half. For everything else breaking at the show, see our SDCC 2026 preview.
The Dadnology Take
Two returning Clone Wars voices in the same cast is the strongest signal this project actually respects the material — that’s not nothing in a genre full of licensed cash-ins. We’ll reserve judgment on the actual tactics gameplay until we’ve seen more than a cast list.

The Mandalorian & Grogu Review: The Space-Dad Story Gets Its Cinema Moment
The Mandalorian & Grogu lands exactly where it should: the scope feels cinematic, the father-son bond remains the emotional core, and the film trusts the audience's affection for Din and Grogu without leaning on it. For dads, the Space-Dad angle hits harder than ever on a big screen. An easy 8/10.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Review: The Perfect Padawan's Pilot
A 10/10 and our favourite of the two Jedi games. Fallen Order is the tighter, more focused first adventure — a parry-based soulslike Metroidvania with the freshness of discovery the bigger sequel can't recapture. The lightsaber finally feels dangerous, BD-1 is the best droid since R2, and Cal's healing arc lands. The high point of Star Wars gaming.
