Not lengthy after the unique Star Wars trilogy wrapped, followers received the primary formally licensed online game with 1982’s The Empire Strikes Again on the Atari 2600. Ever since then, the IP has spawned dozens of video video games throughout a number of generations, with extra bulletins coming yearly.
LucasArts gave us some phenomenal video games for many years, and although they rebranded to Lucasfilm Video games in 2021, there are lots of much-anticipated titles on the horizon that followers can look ahead to.
With the remainder of 2026 forward of us, I needed to take a second to pause and have a look at the present state of Star Wars, tallying the upcoming Star Wars video games which were teased or introduced. Although a few of these video games have a launch window, there are a number of initiatives that we’d not see till subsequent decade.
Try which of them are across the nook and which Star Wars launch dates we’ll have to attend a bit longer for.
Star Wars Galactic Racer
Introduced at The Recreation Awards 2025 and certain the following Star Wars sport we’ll truly be capable to play later this 12 months, Star Wars Galactic Racer from Fuse Video games will put you behind the controls of a high-speed racer. The Galactic Racer teaser trailer showcases speeder bikes and different racers rocketing throughout Jakku, however one factor is noticeably lacking: pod racers. Distancing itself from 1999’s Star Wars Episode 1: Racer will assist make this expertise really feel like a recent tackle the style within the Star Wars universe.
Nonetheless, I maintain out hope that we’ll get some degree of pod racing launched earlier than the Star Wars Galactic Racer launch date hits later in 2026.
Star Wars Eclipse
A inventive collaboration between Quantic Dream and Lucasfilm Video games units Star Wars Eclipse within the Excessive Republic period, centuries earlier than the Skywalker Saga. Branding itself as a “new action-adventure, multiple-character branching narrative sport,” Eclipse affords the power to freely discover the Star Wars galaxy and play as a number of characters with completely different arcs, talents, and morality methods.
Star Wars Eclipse has the potential to provide somewhat little bit of every part to any Star Wars fan, however it’s doubtless not a sport that we’ll see this 12 months. Although it was revealed at The Recreation Awards in 2021, the trailer footage was nonetheless early improvement, making the Eclipse launch date a bit unsure.

Although not formally confirmed by Lucasfilm video games, Cal Kestis voice and mocap actor Cameron Monaghan introduced in a 2023 panel at Ocala Comedian Con that work was underway on the third sport.
As reported by The Direct, Monaghan mentioned, “We’re engaged on the third [game] and we’re within the strategy of doing it proper now… So, that is a giant enterprise and there is been some conversations up to now. However hopefully, when all issues are mentioned and executed, we’ll be capable to go in and make one thing actually cool for you guys once more.”
We cherished Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, scoring it a 9 in our TechRaptor overview, and eagerly await the following and certain last installment within the Cal Kestis trilogy. Given the five-year hole between the primary two video games, the following Jedi sport may come someday in 2028.
Star Wars: Zero Firm
Star Wars Celebration 2025 in Japan got here with a flurry of bulletins, together with Star Wars: Zero Firm from Respawn and Bit Reactor. Set throughout the Clone Wars, Zero Firm is a single-layer turn-based techniques sport that places you in command of a squad of heroes from throughout the galaxy.

Anticipated later in 2026, the Star Wars: Zero Firm launch date is among the few that ought to arrive this 12 months, barring any delays.
An Amy Hennig Star Wars Venture

The studio is at present arduous at work on Marvel 1943: The Rise of Hydra, which, as of a pair months in the past, received delayed indefinitely to “past 2026.” Given the scope of those two very giant initiatives, it isn’t shocking that we doubtless will not see this Star Wars launch date for fairly a while, however the wait must be price it.
Hennig has earned her personal accolades within the business, with credit that embrace Legacy of Kain when she labored with Crystal Dynamics and Jak and Daxter whereas at Naughty Canine. She additionally created the Uncharted collection and has been working within the business for practically 40 years, making her an ideal selection for a Star Wars narrative journey.
Star Wars: Knights of the Outdated Republic Remake
Some of the beloved Star Wars video games of all time is getting a remake, we’re simply undecided precisely when. Star Wars: Knights of the Outdated Republic Remake was initially introduced throughout a PlayStation Showcase in 2021, and there have not been many updates within the years since. Nevertheless, a latest Recreation File report on a lawsuit found references to each KOTOR 1 & 2 remakes, offering hope that the initiatives aren’t lifeless fairly but.
Followers can maintain out hope that improvement remains to be properly underway, particularly with some of the latest bulletins to come back out of The Recreation Awards 2025, which brings me to….
Star Wars: Destiny of the Outdated Republic
Introduced at The Recreation Awards 2025 alongside Galactic Racer, Star Wars: Destiny of the Outdated Republic created a ton of buzz amongst followers with its 90-second teaser trailer. Developed by Arcanaut Studios–based by Knights of the Outdated Republic and the Mass Impact Trilogy director Casey Hudson–FOTOR has ambitions of placing gamers on a single-player RPG journey worthy of its predecessors.
In an interview with StarWars.com, Hudson mentioned, “Destiny of the Outdated Republic represents a possibility to discover a recent imaginative and prescient of a definitive Star Wars expertise, utilizing state-of-the-art expertise and sport design, and an all-new story crafted particularly to ship on the mixture of participant company and immersion in Star Wars that was on the coronary heart of KOTOR.”
No Destiny of the Outdated Republic launch date is in sight but, however it’s a challenge followers will need to hold a detailed eye on as a possible next-gen launch.
Star Wars Video games Launch Dates Forward
Although arduous Star Wars launch dates are few and much between with regards to these initiatives, there’s lots in improvement from completely different inventive minds. This could provide a bevy of distinctive experiences when these video games develop into a playable actuality.
Within the meantime, the following huge Star Wars challenge outdoors of gaming to be excited for is Maul: Shadow Lord that releases this April. After that, hopefully we will get our fingers on no less than a few these titles earlier than 2026 is out.
