On this day in 2008, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed exploded onto consoles and PC, letting players do something no Star Wars game had dared before: wield the Force with almost unlimited power. It wasn’t just another movie tie-in. It became a fan-favorite action-adventure that shaped the future of Star Wars gaming and introduced a memorable anti-hero—Starkiller. A New Kind of Star Wars Story Set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, the game follows Galen Marek, code-named Starkiller, the secret apprentice of Darth Vader. Vader trains him in the dark side, sending him across the galaxy to hunt down the few surviving Jedi. But as Starkiller grows stronger, he discovers that his master—and the Emperor—are not the only ones with plans.

LEGO Star Wars Battles Soft-Launched Six Years Ago—And It’s Still a Wild Ride of Bricks and Strategy
Can you believe it’s been six years since LEGO Star Wars Battles quietly dropped into soft-launch back in September 2019? It’s like a little minifig trying to lift an AT-AT—unexpected, charming, and it left a mark. Let’s dive into why this mobile strategy game still has us geeking out like it was just released. A Soft Launch with Serious LEGO Force Back in September 2019, LEGO Star Wars Battles entered soft launch in select markets—think Southeast Asia, Canada, Denmark, and a few more places on the Empire’s lesser-charted routes. It was the kind of stealth launch that whispered, “Hey, we might be onto something,” while dev teams watched for reactions, engagement, and if people would really love deploying porgs and stormtroopers to capture bases. What Made It Click This wasn’t just another mobile tower-defense game—it was Star Wars meets LEGO epicness, with real-time, PvP battles, deck-building mechanics, and recognizable settings…

This patch mixes new character availability, long-requested adjustments, and a few bug fixes (with a dash of developer humor). Let’s break down everything you need to know. Captain Silvo Joins the Fight The spotlight of this update is the arrival of Captain Silvo, a ruthless Pirate Leader introduced during the Skeleton Crew era.

His debut marks yet another step forward in the expanding Era of Piracy faction, making him a key unit for players investing in the pirate lineup.

Star Wars: Hunters Closing Soon – One Final Month in The Arena
It’s the end of the line for Star Wars: Hunters. Zynga has announced that the game’s servers will officially be turned off in one month, marking the conclusion of the short-lived but ambitious competitive arena brawler. A Galaxy of Missed Potential Star Wars: Hunters launched with big ambitions: fast-paced, hero-based combat in an arena setting where players could take control of unique characters—bounty hunters, droids, stormtroopers, and even a Jedi or two. The concept blended elements of esports-style hero shooters with the iconic Star Wars flair, promising a new multiplayer experience that could stand alongside big titles like Overwatch or Apex Legends. Despite this, the game never quite found its footing. Technical hiccups, balancing issues, and limited post-launch content made it hard to build the strong community needed to sustain a live-service title. One Last Run in The Arena For those who did dive deep into Hunters, there’s still time…
Can Switch 2 Handle Star Wars Outlaws? Early Impressions Say Maybe Not
The galaxy far, far away is coming to Nintendo’s newest console, but not without turbulence. Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft’s ambitious open-world adventure, launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on September 4, 2025. Yet early hands-on impressions suggest the Force isn’t particularly strong with this version of the game. Bumpy Start for the Switch 2 Version Attendees at PAX West who tried the Switch 2 demo walked away unimpressed. Reports described frame rate drops dipping below 30 FPS, even in areas that weren’t graphically intense—like Star Destroyer hallways or small-scale space skirmishes. Other flagged issues included: Considering Switch 2’s beefed-up specs and its surprisingly solid handling of graphically demanding ports like Cyberpunk 2077, the Outlaws demo felt like a step back. How Outlaws Landed Elsewhere The disappointment is amplified when looking at how Star Wars Outlaws has fared on other platforms. When it launched in 2024 on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and…

The Empire Plays Back: Must-Haves for Star Wars Gamers
Star Wars is way more than a movie franchise; it’s a cultural icon. In 2015, research conducted by YouGov in the United States found that 75% of respondents believed that Star Wars is for audiences of all ages and generations. The franchise has released 12 movies so far, including standalone stories and an animated film, as well as a long list of spin-offs. Unsurprisingly, George Lucas’ universe has become the digital playground for avid gamers and fans. Like the movie, Star Wars-inspired games have also crossed generations. The first adventure (The Empire Strikes Back) was released for Atari 2600 back in 1982. Gaming technology has developed at warp speed, with square pixels giving space to 3D immersion and nearly cinematic graphics. Indeed, gamers will need much more than an 8-bit console to enjoy the latest adventures. Today, they can (almost literally) embark on this interstellar saga with VR headsets and…

The Stormtrooper Corps and Imperial Navy officer skin mod for Star Wars Outlaws lets you swap Kay Vess’ outlaw style for the crisp, militarized look of the Empire’s loyal forces. Whether you’re patrolling jungle outposts or slipping into cantinas, the effect is immediate: you look like you stepped right out of a Star Wars movie. 👉 Download the Stormtrooper Corps and Imperial Navy officer skin mod here Why This Mod Works So Well There’s a reason stormtroopers remain iconic in Star Wars movies, comics, and video games.

This mod replaces standard character visuals with skins that make you feel like you’re working for the Empire rather than against it. It’s…

The latest Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes update dropped, and it’s not just bug fixes—it’s a buffet of farmable shards, bonus drops, and some surprisingly colorful patch notes. Version 3.0 brings new content, important adjustments, and a few laughs tucked into the dev notes. Let’s take a closer look. News Highlights First up, the galaxy’s buzzing with some notable changes: That’s right, a Jedi Master swapping places with a Resistance hero feels like the video game equivalent of a sabacc shuffle. RNG in gambling? Meet RNG in farming. Same energy. Bugs and Adjustments The devs clearly had a field day writing these patch notes. Here are the standout fixes and adjustments: And one lore-flavored highlight: the Pirates blockade in Era Battles is gone. Apparently, word of unclaimed cargo lured them away. So yes, even in patch notes, pirates can’t resist the Outer Rim equivalent of a poker jackpot. Why This…
Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes – Vane Kit Reveal Brings Pirate Power to the Dark Side
The pirate crew in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes just got a serious boost. Vane, the sharp-tongued scoundrel from The Mandalorian and Skeleton Crew, is now entering the holotables as the latest Dark Side Tank in the Era of Piracy. And make no mistake—this guy isn’t here to collect bounties. He’s here to take your hits, steal your Taunts, and make sure his pirate buddies stay alive long enough to cash out. Let’s break down what makes Vane such a game-changer. A Pirate Tank That Won’t Go Down Without a Fight Vane joins the game as a Dark Side, Tank, Pirate, Scoundrel unit, and he’s all about resilience and utility. He’s a protector, a damage sponge, and a reliable disruptor who scales over time.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Just Left PlayStation Plus—Time to Say Goodbye
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has officially exited the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog. If you’ve been dragging your feet on finishing—or even starting—Cal Kestis’s latest journey, you just missed your chance to play it for free through your Extra or Premium subscription. August 19 marked its final day in the lineup, and it’s now lights out unless you’re willing to buy it outright. Cal Has Left the Building As the sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order, Jedi: Survivor has been a massive hit among fans of Star Wars video games. With tighter combat mechanics, new Force powers, more customization, and a deeper, darker narrative, it built on everything the original got right. Set five years after the first game, it throws players into a galaxy in chaos—and Cal Kestis into the thick of it. While having it available on PlayStation Plus was a huge win for subscribers, its departure was always inevitable….
