The Ultimate Star Wars Gaming Quiz: 30 Beginner Questions

Think you know Star Wars games?

Good. Let’s start gently before we eventually ask you to identify obscure handheld ports released exclusively in one country during a particularly confusing Tuesday.

This beginner-level Star Wars gaming quiz covers some of the galaxy’s biggest games, characters, ships, studios, and unforgettable moments. There are 30 questions, four possible answers each, and no checking walkthroughs until the end.

That includes pausing to search the answer while pretending you are only adjusting the volume.

This is the first quiz in a three-part series. A medium difficulty quiz and a hardcore Star Wars gaming quiz will follow later this week.

For a broader challenge covering movies, television, comics, lore, and games, try our Ultimate Star Wars Quiz: 30 Questions to Test Your Galactic Knowledge.

And when one of these questions sends you looking for a forgotten title, explore our complete list of every Star Wars game ever released.

Score Guide

0–10 correct: Training Remote

You have entered the gaming side of the galaxy, but several menus remain unexplored. Start with the famous titles and avoid pressing anything labelled “delete save.”

11–20 correct: Padawan Player

A respectable result. You know the major games, characters, and starfighters, even if some older titles are still hiding in the fog of war.

21–26 correct: Jedi Gamer

Strong work. You have clearly played across several generations and probably remember at least one cheat code that no longer serves any practical purpose.

27–30 correct: Gaming Council Member

Excellent. Either you know your Star Wars games extremely well, or BD-1 has been quietly feeding answers into your monitor.
