Star Wars fans might find some joy this season as EA offers steep discounts on several Star Wars games, running until May 15. This sale comes when the franchise is enjoying a resurgence in quality and popularity, making it a good moment to pick up some iconic titles at bargain prices.
Among the deals, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order stands out with an 85% discount, dropping the price to just $5.99 (£5.24). While the game has its rough patches, it offers memorable moments like the opening sequence and the AT-AT climb on Kashyyyk, making it a worthwhile purchase for fans of action-adventure games.
The sequel, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, is also on sale for 80% off at $13.99 (£11.99). Despite some ongoing performance issues reported by players on Steam, Survivor delivers some of the best third-person action sequences in recent memory, including standout moments like the giant drill and the assault on a floating observatory.
For those interested in multiplayer battles, EA’s 2015 reboot of Star Wars: Battlefront is available for $4.99. However, Battlefront 2 is generally considered the superior experience despite its controversial launch, and it’s currently 83% off at $7.99 (£6.99). While the player base isn’t huge, there are still enough players to find matches.
Fans of space combat can also grab Star Wars: Squadrons for $5.99 (£5.24), an 85% discount. The single-player campaign offers a solid experience on both sides of the conflict, and the VR mode adds an extra layer of immersion. Some users have reported issues with EA account connectivity, so caution is advised.
Looking ahead, the future of Star Wars gaming seems promising. Respawn is working on a third Jedi game, and Star Wars Eclipse remains developing. The Kotor Remake is still reportedly ongoing, and a new untitled Star Wars game is in production at Skydance with Amy Hennig involved.
These sales offer a great chance to catch up on some of EA’s Star Wars catalog, especially if you’ve been holding out for a deal. Have you played any of these games? What’s your take on the current state of Star Wars gaming? Drop your thoughts in the comments below.
