Star Wars: Zero Company, the latest XCOM-style tactics RPG from Bit Reactor, has taken a significant step forward in representing queerness in the Star Wars universe. The game allows players to create a custom character with they/them pronouns, sparking curiosity about the exploration of gender and transness in the game.

The game's support for expressions of gender that differ from traditional male and female archetypes is a notable aspect, with various humanoid species like Mirialans, Devaronians, and Togrutas offering a rich backdrop for exploration.
