Every announced Star Wars video game in development

The number of new Star Wars video games in development has exploded since publisher Electronic Arts’ exclusive access to the Lucasfilm franchise has run its course. Eight major Star Wars titles are in development. More will likely be revealed in the future.

Many of those games are years away, as evidenced by the number of Star Wars logos and untitled projects you’ll see below.
