While Star Wars has certainly experienced its fair share of ups and downs over the years, it can never be said that it isn't a rich galaxy filled with lots of diverse planets to explore – many of which will feature in the new Star Wars Battlefront: Classic Collection.

DC heroes and villains have boasted plenty of iconic voice actors over the years, but one of the most legendary of all time is officially coming to the crossover fighting game . As a mashup of just about every sort of property under the Warner Bros. Discovery umbrella, is heavily oriented around having a character roster with a lot of appeal. The game was originally released in a beta state in 2022 before being temporarily shut down in 2023, with a May 28, 2024, release date set for its return.

The wonderful world of Star Wars has once again descended on the battle royale island of Fortnite, bringing with it dozens of quests to complete and plenty of exciting goodies to unlock.

The Minikit from the video games has finally been released in real life. The Minikit first appeared 19 years ago in 2005's as a collectible item and became a mainstay in the series' future titles. There were 10 hidden Minikits in each level — and 60 per Episode — that could form a miniature LEGO recreation of an iconic ship once players had acquired them all, with using them as a way to unlock extra playable characters as well.

While there may already be plenty of LEGO sets for the universe, two video game-exclusive characters may finally get the due as a joint set. The galaxy far, far away has become known as one of LEGO's standout sets thanks to the brand's blocky aesthetic fitting neatly with the franchise's vehicles and landscapes. Yet while plenty of very obscure characters have been immortalized as LEGO pieces, two iconic heroes have yet to earn the same treatment but this may fortunately be about to change.

A recent teaser for LEGO Fortnite's upcoming collaboration with the mega-popular Star Wars franchise is suggesting that lightsabers are coming to the game. Launched as a spinoff of the beloved battle royale, the game takes a markedly different approach from its predecessor, shifting into an open-world survival crafting game. LEGO Fortnite takes notes from Minecraft's success, with players able to build their in-game homes, fight against hostile creatures, and team up with friends to traverse the LEGO landscapes. Now, an upcoming crossover is bringing a major new item to the game.

Star Wars Outlaws is set to launch later this year, and beyond offering an open world to explore, it's also going to allow players to step into the shoes of a scoundrel named Kay Vess. Needless to say, it's shaping up to be quite a departure from the lightsaber-swinging action we're used to from the recent Star Wars Jedi games, but the creative director of Outlaws says that the idea of having Jedi at the forefront of the game "didn't even enter the picture."

A new trailer for Ubisoft's upcoming open-world game, , has shown more of scoundrel Kay Vess' story, providing an insight into her motives and backstory, along with the many threats she will face on her journey. The new, action-packed footage showed Kay engaging in combat both on land and in space and featured the return of various iconic characters and creatures from the original trilogy.

One Starfield modder has blended Bethesda's space-faring RPG with another mega-popular sci-fi franchise, Star Wars, by adding Greedo to the game as a companion. Since its September launch, Starfield has seen a large community of modders creating an array of interesting and useful mods. Some of these mods aim to improve some of Starfield's shortcomings, like adding ammo crafting and a planet resource database. Others add cool crossovers to the game, such as Halo's Master Chief armor or a variety of aliens from the Star Wars universe.

Ubisoft Massive's open world action-adventure Star Wars Outlaws will release on 30th August 2024, according to a new story trailer which introduces us properly to "emerging scoundrel" Kay Vess, aka Hannah Solo. If you haven't had the pleasure, Kay is a budding crook on the run from her underworld boss, a journey that sees her tangling with several other Star Wars crime syndicates on various planets. It really feels like they're keeping a lot of the headline Star Wars stuff at a respectful distance for this one: yes, Jabba the Hutt makes an appearance, but there's nary a whiff of The Force, Jedi or Sith in the trailer and not once does anybody build a Death Star.

With the upcoming release of , the franchise's video games are finally returning to an important era last visited in this medium almost 30 years ago. Kay Vess' story takes place between and, somewhere between 3 ABY and 4 ABY.

When it comes to a story, regardless of the media it’s in, you must have a main character that the audience can connect to in various ways. They don’t necessarily have to be a good/bad person. They just need to showcase enough for people to be invested in them. Ubisoft has had many unique protagonists over the years, and the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws will be no different. Within this original title set within the original movie trilogy, we’ll meet Kay Vess, an outlaw who is quite different from other leads we’ve met in this galaxy. As Ubisoft revealed, that was the point from the start.
