Unfortunately, it sounds like that isn’t happening.

In an interview with UploadVR, creative director Ian Frazier confirmed the team is not treating Squadrons as a live service. “We don’t want to say ‘it’s almost done!’ and then dribble out more of it over time, which to be honest is how most games work these days,” he added. “So we’ve tried to treat it in kind of an old-school approach saying, ‘you’ve paid the $40, this is the game and it’s entirely self-contained.
