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 stay up for.
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 have been teased or introduced.

Star Wars Galactic Racer
Introduced at The Sport Awards 2025 and sure the subsequent Star Wars recreation we’ll truly be capable of 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 contemporary tackle the style within the Star Wars universe.

Star Wars Eclipse
A artistic collaboration between Quantic Dream and Lucasfilm Video games units Star Wars Eclipse within the Excessive Republic period, centuries earlier than the Skywalker Saga.

However hopefully, when all issues are mentioned and finished, we’ll be capable of go in and make one thing actually cool for you guys once more.”
We beloved Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, scoring it a 9 in our TechRaptor evaluate, and eagerly await the subsequent and sure remaining installment within the Cal Kestis trilogy. Given the five-year hole between the primary two video games, the subsequent Jedi recreation might come someday in 2028.

The studio is at present laborious at work on Marvel 1943: The Rise of Hydra, which, as of a pair months in the past, acquired delayed indefinitely to “past 2026.” Given the scope of those two very giant initiatives, it isn’t stunning that we possible will not see this Star Wars launch date for fairly a while, however the wait needs to be price it.
Hennig has earned her personal accolades within the trade, with credit that embrace Legacy of Kain when she labored with Crystal Dynamics and Jak and Daxter whereas at Naughty Canine.

Nonetheless, a current Sport File report on a lawsuit found references to each KOTOR 1 & 2 remakes, offering hope that the initiatives aren’t useless fairly but.
Followers can maintain out hope that growth continues to be nicely underway, particularly with one of the vital current bulletins to return out of The Sport Awards 2025, which brings me to….
Star Wars: Destiny of the Outdated Republic
Introduced at The Sport 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.
