Summary
Long before there were countlessStar WarsTV shows, there were countless Star Wars games. Star Wars video games have been a part of the franchise almost as long as the movies with just about every console since theNEShaving its own Star Wars games. Whether that corner of a galaxy far, far away is somewhere you’ve been before or a place you’re planning to visit for the first time, Fanatical is a really good place to start right now since it has a $12.99 Star Wars bundle.
Included inFanatical’s Star Wars Collectionare 14 games of varying lengths and quality, all of them taking place at different points on the Star Wars timeline. UnlikeMarvel, Star Wars games take place in the same universe as the movies and the shows, meaning everything you experience in the games builds on the wider Star Wars story. Naturally not all games have that big an influence on the wider Star Wars universe, but even if you don’t play any of the other games in Fanatical’s bundle, you should buy it for its twoKnights Of The Old Republic games.
If you’ve been watching The Acolyte and you want to know more about a time before the events of the nine core movies, Knights Of The Old Republic is a must-play. It’s set almost 4,000 years before the best-known Star Wars era, so you won’t be bumping into anyone from The Acolyte, but it’s a fascinating look into an era that has been otherwise untouched. Knights Of The Old Republic and its sequel are $9.99 each, meaning you’re getting them for $7 less and with 12 other games thrown in.

It’s not as if the other 12 titles are obscure pulls from the Star Wars video game back catalog either. Also included in the bundle are both Force Unleashed games, the original Dark Forces (not the recent remaster), and the originalBattlefront 2. The first Battlefront games were recently packaged together and released on modern consoles. The changes didn’t go down well with a lot of people who played the original games though. If you were wondering why the OG sequel is considered to be better than the new version, now you can buy this bundle and find out why.
Buying this bundle of 14 games usually costs more than $70, so getting them for only $12.99 is quite the steal. It is a limited-time deal, but if you’re reading this on or shortly after the day it was published, you’ve still got some time to think it over since the deal doesn’t expire until July 28. Come on though, what is there to think about? Enough Star Wars games to last you a long, long time, and the perfect way to pass the time untilStar Wars Outlawsreleases next month.
