A Bunch Of Star Wars Games Are On Sale Ahead Of Outlaws

Respawn’s take on Star Wars is the type of action game that just feels good to play. It has some of the snappiest Force mechanics a Star Wars game has ever been able to capture, the lightsaber fights are a delight, and the big AAA production value means it’s also a pretty solid Star Wars story. Both the original Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and its sequel Jedi: Survivor are on sale on Steam for $9.99 and $31.49, respectively. The Xbox versions of both games are also on sale, at $9.99 and $27.99.

If you want to step away from the Jedi, 2005’s Republic Commando is a solid first-person shooter game with tactical elements. The bite-sized campaign has you commanding a squad of clone troopers and engaging in actual strategic combat scenarios rather than just running and gunning. The game is on sale until tomorrow, 8/15 on PlayStation for $7.49, but you can also get it for $9.99 on Steam and Humble Bundle and $14.99 on Switch.

Maybe you don’t have time for a big campaign, or you want to get in the Star Wars mood without committing too much. If that’s the case, Star Wars: Battlefront II is on sale on Steam and Humble Bundle for $9.99. This is the “Celebration Edition,” which includes skins, emotes, voice lines, and victory poses, all while giving you plenty of cooperative and competitive multiplayer to play alongside friends. There is also a campaign to jump into, should you decide you want to dip into another full-fledged Star Wars story. That’s a whole lot to play around with for such a cheap price.

BioWare and Obsidian’s Star Wars RPGs are widely regarded as some of the best games set in the Star Wars universe. Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel have been ported to a handful of modern platforms, and they both still hold up as some of the best storytelling across the franchise. You can grab both games on Steam and Humble Bundle for $9.99.

Yes, lightsabers and clone troopers are all well and good, but a pillar of Star Wars is space combat. EA Motive’s Star Wars: Squadrons is a really solid, modern game all about flying your favorite Star Wars ships through space and living your combat pilot dreams. The game features both a story campaign and multiplayer if you want to take to the skies with a friend. Squadrons will run you $7.99 on Steam until August 19.
