The Best and Worst Star Wars Combat Games

Lisa Clark other starwars games

A lot of people are talking about Star Wars: Squadrons right now, which brings up another interesting topic: Star Wars combat games throughout history.

Zack Zwiezen from Kotaku decided to just that. He has a ranking here of the best to worst Star Wars combat games. As soon as I saw the headline, I knew I needed to check it out and see if I agreed with his ranking.

I have played every single one of these games – some of them many times over – so I was interested to see how he ranked them.

Keep in mind that this is not a ranking of all Star Wars games, but specifically Star Wars games that feature space combat, Star Destroyers, and other themed combat elements.

So, ready to see his ranking? From worst to best, here’s how he lined them up:

TIE Fighter definitely earned its top spot. What about the rest of the rankings?

Overall, I mostly agree. There are a few I may have swapped here and there, but that’s mostly for personal preferences. His reasoning supports his choices. Check out the link if you want to read more and see why he ranked them how he did.

Now let’s hear from you. What’s your favorite Star Wars space combat game?

Lisa has been an avid gamer since she was old enough to hold her first controller and a game writer for more than a decade. A child of the Nintendo generation, she believes they just don’t make games like they used to but sometimes, they make them even better! While consoles will always be her first love, Lisa spends most of her gaming time on the PC these days- on MMOs and first-person shooters in particular.
