Looking online, it seems there have been approximately 64,534 Star Wars games released since the first film hit theaters in the ‘70s. (Editor’s note: That’s incorrect.) But, while many of them are good, some are really, really good. These are the kind of games that are so great that even non-Star Wars fans can’t deny how excellent they are.
For this list, we didn’t set any restrictions. New games, old games, PC games, console games, handheld games, remakes, ports, and more were all valid options. Basically, anything that is considered a video game and has Star Wars slapped on the box could appear on this list. And before we get to the main entries, here are a few honorable mentions that didn’t make the cut but are still worth shouting out : Star Wars Arcade, Rogue Squadron 2, Galactic Battlegrounds, Racer Revenge, and Jedi Starfighter are all fantastic games but just not quite good enough to crack our top ten. I await your angry messages and comments.
Anyway, here are the ten best Star Wars games ever made, in no particular order!
