There are lots of exciting upcoming Star Wars games currently in the pipeline. With fresh releases fast approaching and more projects set in the Star Wars universe in the works coming our way in the future, we'll have plenty of opportunities to venture to a galaxy far, far away. From a narrative adventure from Quantic Dream to the first open-world experience - which is one of the biggest upcoming upcoming Ubisoft games - coming to us from developer Massive Entertainment, the lineup is spread across a variety of genres that span the Star Wars timeline.
After the release of the much anticipated sequel to one of the best Star Wars games last year in the shape of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, we still have plenty to look forward to, with 2023 seeing a slate of reveals and announcements for new games in 2024 and beyond.
Most recent news officially revealed the Star Wars Outlaws release date, and a report back in February also confirmed one of the upcoming Star Wars games that was previously announced - an untitled Star Wars FPS set to come from Respawn - has sadly been canceled following an unprecedented number of layoffs this year.
To get a full recap of all of the upcoming Star Wars games, read on below.
Recent updates
This collection of upcoming Star Wars games was updated April 10, 2024 to add the release date for Star Wars Outlaws.
2024
Star Wars Outlaws
Release date: August 30, 2024
Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X
Ubisoft revealed Star Wars Outlaws at the Xbox Games Showcase 2023. This brand new Star Wars adventure is coming from Ubisoft Massive, the studio behind The Division and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. This open world Star Wars game is set to arrive in 2024 and our first look at it was incredibly impressive, showcasing a grimier look at the Galaxy Far, Far away than we're typically accustomed to seeing. Interestingly, it also appears to be set during the original trilogy! Ubisoft says we should get a full look at gameplay at the Ubisoft Forward 2023 on June 12.
Star Wars: Hunters
Release date: TBC 2024
Platform(s): Nintendo Switch, Android, iOS
Star Wars: Hunters is a new team-based multiplayer game coming to mobile and Switch. Made by developer Zynga and Lucasfilm Games, Star Wars: Hunters takes place after the fall of the Galactic Empire, with a cast of new characters you'll be able to choose from as you join squads and take on multiplayer battles in various settings inspired by "iconic" Star Wars locations. Some of the characters you can choose to fight as in the upcoming arena-combat game include the likes of Rebels, Stormtroopers, and bounty hunters. A panel during the Star Wars Celebration 2022 event also revealed that every character will have backstories and set dynamics with other characters. Star Wars: Hunters was originally set to launch sometime in 2022 before being pushed, and we're currently awaiting an official date.

Respawn's Star Wars strategy game
Release date: TBC
Platform(s): TBC
Respawn kept the surprises coming with the announcement of a Star Wars strategy game. Revealed alongside the first-person shooter, which has since been canceled, the untitled Star Wars strategy game is currently being developed through a "production collaboration" with freshly established studio Bit Reactor. Respawn will be producing the project, while Bit Reactor leads its development. The new studio is being led by veteran developer Greg Foertsch, who previously worked at Firaxis on Sid Meisner's Civilization series – among others. Very little has been revealed about the project so far, so the release date is still likely to be a ways off.
Star Wars: Eclipse
Release date: TBC
Platform(s): TBC
First announced during the Game Awards 2021, Star Wars Eclipse is a new action-adventure from Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human developer Quantic Dream and Lucasfilm Games. Described as a branching narrative game, Eclipse takes place in the High Republic Era in an "uncharted region of the Outer Rim". With new faces and environments, you'll be experiencing its story through the eyes of an ensemble cast of playable characters who are all said to have their own personalities and motivations, and will each make their own impact on each other and the adventure overall. When it was first announced, it was said to be in the early stages of development, and it may still be some time before Eclipse arrives. And while it has not yet been confirmed, it seems likely that it will land on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S when it does.
Knights of the Old Republic remake
Release date: TBC
Platform(s): PS5, PC
The Knights of the Old Republic remake is set to deliver a new version of the much-loved RPG from 2003 to PS5 and PC. First revealed during the PlayStation 2021 Showcase, we got our very first look at a revamped Darth Raven who was a customizable protagonist in the original game. The remake is coming from Aspyr and Lucasfilm Games, the former of which has previously worked on several remasters of previous Star Wars games, including Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast. With only a brief teaser revealed so far, we don't yet have a release date, and a recent report from Bloomberg claimed the project has been delayed indefinitely. The original game from BioWare allowed you to shape your own journey in the galaxy as one of nine different customizable characters, with plenty of choice and freedom. While we wait for an update on the game's development, we can't help but wonder how it might shape up.
Amy Hennig's Star Wars game
Release date: TBC
Platform(s): TBC
An as yet untitled Star Wars games is also currently in the works from Skydance New Media. In collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, veteran writer and director Amy Hennig will be at the helm of the studio, who's well known for previously working on big hits such as Uncharted and Jak and Daxter. The new Star Wars game is described as a narrative-driven action-adventure, and while not much else has been revealed about the project, a report suggests it could well be a revival of a prior Star Wars project that was ultimately shuttered. While still unconfirmed, a leak pointed towards it bringing back Project Ratag, a game set during the Rebel Alliance era that was once in development at EA studio Visceral. The project is still likely quite a ways off, but we certainly can't wait to learn more.
