Posted on December 30, 2024April 8, 2025 by ljcool110

The Star Wars franchise has had a monumental presence in gaming, spanning decades and crossing multiple platforms, from classic console games to mobile apps. From epic space battles to lightsaber duels and immersive storylines, these games offer a galaxy far, far away for fans to explore. In this edition of our Top Star Wars questions series we’ break down the top 10 Star Wars video games and mobile games that have stood the test of time, earning critical acclaim and love from fans around the world.


1. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003)

Platform: PC, Xbox, iOS, Android (upcoming remake)

Often regarded as one of the best RPGs of all time, Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) takes place thousands of years before the canon films and allows players to create their own Jedi or Sith. The narrative-driven gameplay, branching storylines, and memorable characters set the stage for what would become one of the most beloved Star Wars stories. Its deep choices, morality system, and exceptional writing have made it a timeless classic. A remake is currently in development for next-gen consoles, which only reinforces its enduring legacy.


2. Star Wars: Battlefront II (2005)

Platform: PC, PS2, Xbox

Released by Pandemic Studios, Star Wars: Battlefront II is the definitive large-scale, action-packed Star Wars shooter. Offering both single-player campaigns and multiplayer modes, it lets players take on the roles of iconic characters like Darth Vader, Boba Fett, or Yoda, as well as soldiers on either side of the conflict. The game is lauded for its scale, large battle maps, and the freedom to hop into vehicles and fly across the galaxy. Its intense battles made it one of the most-loved Star Wars games.


3. Star Wars: Battlefront II (2017)

Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One

The 2017 reboot of Battlefront II by EA and DICE experienced a rocky launch but ultimately turned into a polished, expansive game. The addition of iconic heroes, large-scale battles, and a robust multiplayer mode made it a worthy successor to the classic. Its story campaign, which focuses on the rise and fall of the Empire through the eyes of Iden Versio, was praised for its compelling narrative and strong female protagonist. Post-launch updates expanded the game with additional content, including Clone Wars-era battles and characters like Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi.


4. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (2008)

Platform: PS2, PS3, PSP, Wii, Xbox 360, PC

The Force Unleashed allows players to step into the boots of Starkiller, Darth Vader’s secret apprentice, as he trains to hunt down the last of the Jedi. The game’s focus on using the Force to manipulate environments and enemies set it apart from other action games at the time. The highly satisfying combat, involving intense lightsaber battles and devastating Force powers, combined with a storyline that ties directly into the broader Star Wars saga, cemented its place as one of the franchise’s standout action titles.


5. Star Wars: Rebel Assault II – The Hidden Empire (1995)

Platform: PC, Sega Saturn, PlayStation

A cult classic, Rebel Assault II was one of the early games to deliver a cinematic experience, with full-motion video cutscenes blending with gameplay. It combined rail shooter mechanics with a gripping narrative about the Rebel Alliance’s struggle against the Empire. Although its gameplay may feel dated by today’s standards, it’s still beloved for its immersive presentation and innovative use of multimedia for its time.


6. Star Wars: Jedi: Fallen Order (2019)

Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X/S

Jedi: Fallen Order brought Star Wars fans back to the days of single-player action-adventure games. Set after the events of Revenge of the Sith, the game follows Cal Kestis, a young Jedi who survived Order 66. The story, coupled with excellent gameplay mechanics such as tight lightsaber combat, Force abilities, and environmental puzzles, makes it a standout in the Star Wars gaming landscape. Its success has led to plans for a sequel, Jedi: Survivor, which promises to expand on its impressive foundation.


7. Star Wars: TIE Fighter (1994)

Platform: PC

A true classic in the space-simulation genre, TIE Fighter lets players take control of an Imperial pilot and experience the Star Wars universe from the Empire’s perspective. The game was groundbreaking for its time, offering a level of depth and freedom rarely seen in space combat simulators. With a gripping storyline, advanced flight mechanics, and tactical missions, TIE Fighter remains a beloved title for those who enjoy space combat and Star Wars lore.


8. Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (2015)

Platform: iOS, Android

The most profitable and possibly the most popular Star Wars mobile game of all time due to it’s longevity, Galaxy of Heroes brings the thrill of collecting, upgrading, and battling with iconic Star Wars characters on your mobile device. A turn-based RPG, the game allows players to assemble teams of heroes and villains from across the saga to engage in strategic combat. In addition to being able to play and use canon Star Wars characters, characters from the Old Republic and Expanded Universe are also included. Regular updates, character events, and the ability to create powerful synergies between characters have kept the game fresh for years. As the main game we cover here on StarWars-fans.com, we agree that it’s a must-play for fans who enjoy mobile gaming and Star Wars.


9. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords (2004)

Platform: PC, Xbox

A sequel to the original KOTOR, The Sith Lords expands on the first game’s mechanics and introduces a darker narrative. Players are thrust into a post-Republic galaxy with the Jedi all but extinct, and they must navigate a galaxy on the edge of chaos. Despite its rushed development, the game is a fan favorite, with a richly complex story, new Force powers, and deep moral choices that resonate with the themes of the Star Wars universe. The game has since been updated and released on modern platforms as part of a remastered edition.


10. Star Wars: Pocket Squadron (2016)

Platform: iOS, Android

For mobile gamers looking for a fast-paced, space-fighter game, Pocket Squadron is an engaging and action-packed title that lets players control their own fleet of starfighters in a dynamic, top-down shooter format. Featuring both single-player and multiplayer modes, the game allows players to participate in massive dogfights, fly iconic ships like the X-Wing or TIE Fighter, and take on various missions. It offers a more accessible experience for mobile gamers while retaining that signature Star Wars excitement.
