Happy May The Fourth, Star Wars fans. It’s really been eons since the series started from the grand idea from filmmaker George Lucas back in 1979. With it came a slew of toys, mouthbreathers enthusiastic fans, and video game merchandise up the wazoo. The latter is pretty much our focus.

Yes, we do have a video or two talking about Star Wars games, but the games there feel more like legacy additions than games you can pick up and play right now on your PC and/or consoles. So here’s a more updated and refined games list of what Star Wars games to buy.

To celebrate this occasion, here are the top current games you can play that are Star Wars related, are affordable and less than RM100/US$20 (save for one virtual entry) and are easily available.

Most of the titles here are getting a special 4th May and Star Wars Day discounts, so you better hurry!

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (RM42.50 On Steam)

Platform: PC, Xbox Series, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch
Genre: Action-Adventure Game

Who knew a LEGO game would make it on this list to recommend fun all-ages Star Wars games? In all seriousness, both hardcore gamers and casual players will have a blast with the latest Traveller’s Tale Games’ action-adventure game, now with a ton of voice-acting, comedy bits, and loads of bricks to collect. And even orphans to air juggle with your Lightsaber. Fun for everyone!

Star Wars: Squadrons (RM7.95 on Steam)

Platform: PC, Xbox Series, Xbox One
Genre: Space Flight Sim

If you yearn for the days of X-Wings and TIE Fighters, but don’t want to cloud your eyes with old-school PC graphics, you should play the recent space flight sim entry Star Wars: Squadron. If you love space dogfighting and want a ton of variety when it comes to spaceships from the Star Wars universe, you’ll definitely find a lot to love here.

It’s going for a steal right now, costing way, way less than its RM159 asking price.

Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic (RM6.68 On Steam)

Platform: PC, Android, iOS, Nintendo Switch
Genre: RPG

One of the most legendary and iconic Star Wars video games of all time, Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic may look outdated with similarly outdated mechanics but its story narrative, world and characters are timeless and fondly remembered for good reason. It’s set in an era that is thousands of years before the current era of Star Wars media.

Also, you’ll be able to experience why Darth Revan is one of the most revered characters in the franchise. Now is the time to jump into this classic, considering that an official remake is already currently in development for current-gen consoles.

Star Wars Republic Commando (RM8.22 On Steam)

Platform: PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4
Genre: FPS

Even if you hate the Star Wars Prequel Era, there’s one thing that most people would find cool regardless of that; the Clone Troopers. There’s a reason why the Star Wars Battlefront games are popular, and The Clone Wars animated series could last up to seven seasons. Part of that is because Clone Troopers are awesome, and Star Wars Republic Commando manages to make a decent FPS out of the fantasy of playing as one. Recently re-released for the PS4 and Nintendo Switch, there are multiple platforms to choose from.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order And Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (Free On Xbox Game Pass)

Platform: Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC
Genre: Soulslike action adventure in a galaxy far, far away

In both excellent games, you’ll assume the role of Cal Kestis as he learns how to be a Jedi and rebuild the titular fallen order while being hunted by the Empire and its inquisitors. Lots of places to visit, sights to see, and alien monsters to murder while you’re learning the ways of the Force.

Bonus Entry – Star Wars: Tales From The Galaxy’s Edge

Platform: PS5 (requires PSVR 2)
Genre: VR Star Wars game

Feel the Force (feedback)! This Star Wars game is the “everyman” journey through the universe as a person of action, taking parts of the Galaxy’s Edge Disney theme parks and putting a more action-like spin on things. You’ll get to unleash your Star Wars fantasy with blasters, shotguns, and lightsabers galore, albeit in a linear-but-really-pretty-and-immersive fashion.

Galaxy’s Edge is the best VR Star Wars game you should get right now. In fact, if you already have a PS5, you should get a PSVR 2 just to play this ultimate retrofitted version of this pretty nifty and underrated Star Wars first-person virtual adventure game. Yes, it’s pretty pricey when compared to everything on this list, but if you have to get one VR Star Wars experience, it might as well be the best one in the market.
