In a galaxy where Jedi duel with lightsabers, Sith plot in shadows, and Mandalorians blast their way through problems, Sabine Wren stands out—not just because of her art-covered armor. With her wild hair colors, explosive personality (literally—she loves detonators), and deep Mandalorian roots, she’s become a fan favorite across multiple Star Wars series. But one question fans keep asking: How old is Sabine Wren? Strap in, because we’re diving into the dates, the lore, and the flaming graffiti trail she’s left across the galaxy. Who Is Sabine Wren? Before we pull out the timeline calculator, let’s recap who Sabine Wren actually is. Sabine first exploded onto the scene (again—she really likes explosives) in Star Wars Rebels, a show that chronicled the early days of the Rebellion. She’s a Mandalorian from Clan Wren of House Vizsla, a brilliant artist, weapons expert, and former Imperial cadet who left the Empire when she…

Star Wars Battlefront II Smashes Steam Player Record After 90% Off Sale
What happens when a legendary Star Wars shooter goes on sale for the price of a vending machine soda? It blows up the charts—literally. Star Wars Battlefront II just broke its all-time concurrent player record on Steam, with over 20,000 players jumping into the galaxy far, far away as of June 21, 2025. And the Force behind this resurgence? A whopping 90% discount on the game. A Comeback Story That’s Almost Canon-Worthy Let’s be honest—Battlefront II didn’t exactly launch as the chosen one back in 2017. Thanks to infamous loot box drama and a progression system that felt more like Sith alchemy than balanced gameplay, it became the poster child for what not to do in AAA monetization. But EA and DICE turned things around. Fast forward to today, and it’s now regarded as one of the most polished and content-rich Star Wars multiplayer experiences available. Now, with a $3.99…

There’s no pay-to-win nonsense anymore—just pure, chaotic Star Wars action. Why Battlefront II Is Still Worth Buying in 2025 Sure, the game launched with more controversy than a Jedi Council vote, but Battlefront…

In a galaxy not so far away (i.e., your internet browser), one of the most underrated Star Wars games of all time just went full free-to-play.

London Film & Comic Con 2025: Robert Timothy Smith (Jod Neel) Joins the Lineup
Mark your con calendars—because London Film & Comic Con 2025 just added a rising name to its guest list. Robert Timothy Smith, the actor behind the mysterious Jod Neel in the upcoming Star Wars: The Acolyte, is confirmed to appear at Olympia this summer. If you’ve been keeping an eye on the darker corners of the galaxy (and the Disney+ queue), Jod Neel’s presence in The Acolyte has sparked speculation, memes, and more than one “Sith or not?” Reddit thread. And now the man behind the mystery is bringing his lightsaber-sharp energy to one of the UK’s biggest geek gatherings. Who Is Robert Timothy Smith—and Why Should You Care? Smith might not be a household name—yet—but The Acolyte has a habit of turning actors into canon legends. His role as Jod Neel is still mostly under wraps, but early footage and behind-the-scenes teases point toward a character with major Dark…

Jason Court Looks Back on Playing Kyle Katarn in Star Wars: Dark Forces II
Back in 1997, before The Force Unleashed and long before Cal Kestis started leaping across Jedi temples, there was Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight—a groundbreaking Star Wars game that didn’t just expand the galaxy, but pulled us right into it with live-action cutscenes and a character who became an underground icon: Kyle Katarn. Now, nearly three decades later, Jason Court, the actor who portrayed Katarn, has stepped back into the spotlight with a rare look back at his experience playing the gruff ex-Stormtrooper-turned-reluctant-Jedi. And let’s be clear—he didn’t just voice the character. He was Kyle Katarn, in flesh and beard, filmed in front of primitive green screens and imaginary enemies. This isn’t just a nostalgia trip—it’s a deep cut that reaffirms how much of Star Wars’ gaming legacy was built on guts, grit, and awkward early CGI. Kyle Katarn: The Jedi with a Blaster (and a Backstory) Before he was…

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes Was Announced 10 Years Ago Today — And We’re Still Hooked
Ten years ago, Electronic Arts lit the fuse on what would become one of the most enduring mobile RPGs in the galaxy. Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes was officially announced on June 15, 2015—and whether you’re a galactic gambler or an esports strategist, you’ve probably touched this game at least once (and then rage-quit over mod RNG). From its humble beginnings as a turn-based collector RPG to becoming a mainstay in mobile PvP circles, SWGOH has aged like fine blue milk. Let’s dig into the legacy, the memes, the monetization, and what’s kept this game rolling like a Hutt down a casino aisle. A New Hope for Mobile Star Wars Gaming Before SWGOH, Star Wars mobile games were hit-or-miss. Some were charming, others were… not. But EA Capital Games’ announcement changed that trajectory. Combining hero collection, turn-based tactics, and an endless hunger for crystals, SWGOH became the Star Wars mobile…
Carrie Beck: The Quiet Force Behind Star Wars—and Possibly the Future of Lucasfilm
Carrie Beck might not be a household name (yet), but behind the scenes of a galaxy far, far away, she’s been quietly shaping the Star Wars universe for years. And now, the Force-sensitive whispers around the Holonet are getting louder: Could Carrie Beck be the next big leader at Lucasfilm? Let’s punch it to hyperspace and break it down. Carrie Beck’s Role in Star Wars (So Far) Currently serving as EVP of Lucasfilm’s Story Group, Carrie Beck has been instrumental in helping guide the narrative threads of Star Wars across movies, shows, books, and games. While Kathleen Kennedy still captains the Lucasfilm ship, Beck has played the role of co-pilot with increasing visibility. Beck was involved in: Essentially, when a Jedi says something lore-breaking in a script meeting, it’s likely Carrie Beck who steps in with a raised eyebrow and a continuity-saving retcon. Why Her Name Is Buzzing Now The…
Halloween 2025 Brings Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Boglings to Hasbro’s Black Series
Hasbro is conjuring up something spooky for Fall 2025, and no, it’s not another lightsaber toaster. The beloved Boglings from Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor are crawling their way back into the spotlight—this time as part of Hasbro’s limited-edition Halloween-themed Black Series figures. They’re creepy, they’re adorable, and yes, they’re ready to haunt your display shelf. Halloween Hits Hyperspace with New Black Series Creatures This year’s Halloween wave from Hasbro isn’t just repaints and pumpkins. Two striking new figures have been revealed—each paired with their very own sinister-looking Bogling. One is a mysterious white-cloaked warrior that looks like a Force ghost on a mission, while the other is a green-skinned, double-lightsaber-wielding character with big Nightsister energy. Both figures come with tiny Bogling companions who look like they just broke out of a haunted Bogano petting zoo. Meet the Figures: Phantom Warrior and Dual-Blade Dread First up is…
Darth Vader in Dead by Daylight? Behaviour Interactive Confirms Talks with Disney
In a twist that could shake the fog right out of the Entity’s realm, Dead by Daylight might soon host one of the galaxy’s most iconic villains. According to game director Mathieu Côté, Behaviour Interactive has officially held talks with Disney about bringing Darth Vader to the asymmetrical horror game. That’s right—there’s a real possibility that the Dark Lord of the Sith could be trading his Force choke for a sacrificial hook. And no, you didn’t just hear the Imperial March playing in your head. This is actually happening… maybe. A Sith in the Fog? Behaviour Says “We’ve Talked” During a recent interview, Côté confirmed what horror and sci-fi gamers alike never knew they wanted: “We’ve had discussions with Disney, and yes, Darth Vader has come up.” While no details have been locked in, this public statement marks the first real acknowledgment that a Star Wars x Dead by Daylight…
Fortnite x Star Wars: These Were the Most Used Skins in the Galaxy
Fortnite’s latest Star Wars crossover event wasn’t just a galactic battle—it was a runway show with blasters. While lightsabers clashed and Force powers flew, players were quietly casting the most important vote of all: their outfit of choice. Now, thanks to data from Fortnite.gg, we have a clear look at which skins truly ruled the battlefield. And no, the top spot isn’t held by a Jedi, a Sith, or even someone from a galaxy far, far away… Top 5 Most Used Skins During the Fortnite x Star Wars Season 🥇 1. Apprentice Evie – 745.9k Uses Let’s be honest—no one expected a Fortnite original to outshine galactic royalty, but Apprentice Evie did just that. With her edgy aesthetic and Sith-core vibes, she came in hot with nearly 746,000 uses. She may not be canon, but she’s clearly Queen of the cosmetics. 🥈 2. General Grievous – 398.8k Uses Half droid,…
SWTOR 7.7 First Impressions: A Quiet Update That Speaks Volumes to Veteran Players
Let’s get one thing straight right from the start: not every MMORPG update has to come with fireworks, new planets, and a dramatic betrayal by your companion. Sometimes, the most meaningful patches are the ones that don’t demand your attention — they earn it slowly, through polish, nuance, and attention to the stuff that actually keeps a game alive day in and day out. That’s what Star Wars: The Old Republic’s Update 7.7 delivers. Now, coming from someone who’s been in this MMO galaxy for more than 25 years — through the early days of EverQuest, the golden age of World of Warcraft, and yes, the rollercoaster ride that is SWTOR — I’ve learned to recognize the updates that quietly move the needle. This one doesn’t scream “headline expansion.” But beneath its modest patch notes lies a layer of thoughtful refinement that long-time players will immediately appreciate. Let’s take a…
Star Wars: A New Hope Landed on Home Video 43 Years Ago — And the Galaxy Was Never the Same
Forty-three years ago this month — in June of 1982 — Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope finally made the jump to hyperspace… and into people’s living rooms. After five years of theatrical dominance and rewatches limited to dollar theaters or vague childhood memories, George Lucas’ space opera arrived on home video and changed the galaxy of entertainment forever. This wasn’t just a VHS release. It was the VHS release. The one that turned rewinding tapes into a Force-enhanced ritual. So, fire up your nostalgia cores and let’s rewind the tape on this iconic piece of home entertainment history. 📼 The VHS That Launched a Thousand Obsessions Back in June 1982, the idea of owning a movie — any movie — was still kind of wild. VHS players were luxury items. Renting tapes was more common than owning them. But A New Hope wasn’t just any film. It…
10 Years Without Count Dooku: Remembering Christopher Lee’s Legacy in Star Wars
June 7 marks ten years since Sir Christopher Lee departed this world — or, as some would say in the Star Wars universe, became one with the Force. A full decade later, his deep voice still echoes across the galaxy, and his presence as Count Dooku remains one of the most commanding in the entire franchise. Forget noisy Sith like Maul or rage-fueled tantrums à la Anakin — Lee’s Dooku was a masterclass in aristocratic menace. He didn’t just swing a lightsaber; he debated you with it. Let’s take a hyperspace jump back through the career of the man who made treason look classy and evil sound like Shakespeare. ⚔️ Count Dooku: The Sith Lord Who Brought Swagger to the Dark Side Introduced in Attack of the Clones (2002), Count Dooku — also known as Darth Tyranus — wasn’t your typical Sith baddie. He wasn’t a snarling monster or an…
Star Wars Battlefront 2 Is Poppin’ Off Again—But EA Would Rather You Join EA Play Than Make a New Game
So, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is suddenly one of the hottest games on the galaxy’s radar again. Eight years after launch. Four years after official support ended. Two years after everyone said “RIP” and moved on to other shooters. And EA? They’ve noticed the party… but instead of bringing cake, they brought a subscription plug. A Long Time Ago in a Dead Game Far, Far Away Let’s talk timeline. Battlefront 2 launched in 2017 and, well, let’s just say it wasn’t smooth hyperspace travel. The microtransactions drama alone could fill a HoloNet crime report. But after some serious patching and a progression overhaul that didn’t feel like it was written by Jabba the Hutt’s accountants, the game turned things around. Support officially ended in 2020. DICE (the developers) pitched Battlefront 3. EA rejected it. Something-something about licensing costs, something-something lightsaber-shaped dollar signs. DICE moved back to Battlefield. And that seemed…
Comic Con Liverpool 2025: Cameron Monaghan Brings the Force to the Stage
While most people spent May 3rd and 4th recovering from their Star Wars Day hangovers, thousands made the pilgrimage to Exhibition Centre Liverpool for Comic Con Liverpool 2025—and the Force was definitely strong with this one. Among the galaxy of star-studded guests, one name sparked a collective Jedi mind-meld: Cameron Monaghan, the man behind Cal Kestis in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor. Spoiler alert: Yes, he talked about that lightsaber scene. Lightsabers, Liverpudlians, and a Live Q&A Cameron Monaghan took the stage for a highly anticipated Q&A session that had the crowd buzzing faster than a hyperdrive malfunction. Known not just for his Jedi role, but also for his chilling turn as Jerome in Gotham, Monaghan shared behind-the-scenes stories, insights into motion-capture acting, and how it feels to be a virtual action figure with better abs than most real humans. The Q&A covered everything from training with…

The Peezos Scene in Andor Season 2: How a 3-Second Glance Tells the Whole Story
In Andor Season 2, Episode 4 (“Ever Been to Ghorman?”), there’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment that delivers more emotional payload than a Star Destroyer at full burn. Cassian Andor, walking into a corner shop with Bix on Coruscant, picks up a small green tube of tablets. He looks at it, hesitates for a heartbeat, and puts it back. No dialogue. No dramatic music swell. Just a tiny motion… and a whole galaxy of meaning. This isn’t just any product—it’s a tube of “greeny-green Peezos”, as written in Aurebesh on the label. If you’re wondering why that detail matters, you’re about to see why Andor remains one of the most emotionally layered shows in the Star Wars franchise. 🟢 Peezos: More Than a Snack, Less Than a Lightsaber Let’s rewind to Season 1, Episode 7 (“Announcement”). Back on the tropical planet Niamos, Cassian was living his best low-stakes life. A beachside apartment….
Disney Quietly Swaps Rogue One Thumbnail — Now It’s the Cassian Show (Apparently)
If you opened up Disney+ recently and thought, “Wait a minute, wasn’t Rogue One about Jyn Erso?”, you’re not imagining things. Disney has subtly updated the thumbnail for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, placing Cassian Andor front and center—with Jyn and K-2SO noticeably playing backup in the shadows. And while we’re all for Cassian getting his moment in the binary suns, one can’t help but wonder: Did Disney+ just retcon the thumbnail to boost clicks off Andor hype? Let’s talk about it. 📺 The New Rogue One Thumbnail: Cassian Leads the Charge In the updated image currently shown on Disney+, Cassian’s intense, brooding face dominates the frame, flanked by a smaller Jyn Erso and the ever-sarcastic K-2SO. This might seem like a minor visual tweak—but it completely flips the marketing narrative of the film. Originally, Rogue One was marketed (and written) with Jyn Erso as the lead. She delivers…
Mark Hamill Officially Bows Out of Star Wars—And Here’s What That Means for the Galaxy
Well, it’s finally official. After decades of lightsaber duels, force ghost cameos, and one unforgettable moment with a carton of blue milk, Mark Hamill has confirmed he’s done with Star Wars. That’s right—the man behind Luke Skywalker is hanging up his Jedi robes for good, and he’s not looking back (unless it’s in a documentary narrated by Werner Herzog, maybe). Hamill’s recent comments during a press appearance didn’t leave much room for interpretation. Asked whether he’d ever return to the Star Wars universe, his answer was crystal clear: No plans. No desire. No more Force ghost cameos.If you’re feeling reflective, check out The Impact of Luke Skywalker and Mark Hamill on Our Society Will Never End—a book that dives deep into how a farm boy from Tatooine helped shape pop culture and beyond. 🌠 Mark Hamill and the End of a Jedi Era Let’s rewind for a second.
