Best Star Wars Games to Play On Game Pass & PS Plus Right Now

Subscription services have completely changed the way we consume media up to this point, and in the gaming world, they are a total lifesaver for many players. For a fixed monthly price, you get access to a huge catalog that is a gold mine for anyone who burns through games fast and wants to experience everything without breaking the bank.

And let’s be honest: certain times of the year just demand specific vibes, and you can’t go through May the 4th week without hearing the hum of a lightsaber or the screech of a blaster. It’s a ritual! Whether you are celebrating the Jedi or embracing your inner Sith, the urge to jump into a galaxy far, far away is inevitable this time of the year.

To help you navigate this galaxy of content, we have rounded up the best Star Wars titles currently available on two of the most popular subscription services for games: PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass.

While they both offer great value, they have distinct flavors. If you’re on the PlayStation side, for instance, your journey will mostly be a nostalgic trip through the classics of yesteryear. Meanwhile, Game Pass Ultimate users get to enjoy the modern blockbusters. So, clear some hard drive space and grab your controller. Here are the 10 best Star Wars games you can play right now on these subscription services.

10 Star Wars: Bounty Hunter

Available on PlayStation Plus Premium

If you’ve ever wanted to feel like a cold-blooded professional in the Star Wars underworld like Boba or Jango Fett, this is it!

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a classic 2002 relic that puts you in the boots of Jango Fett, and it does a fantastic job of making you use his entire arsenal, from his signature dual blasters to that iconic, scorched-earth flamethrower. You can literally fly with your jetpack, hunt down secondary bounties, and generally cause a lot of galactic mayhem.

Its story follows a hunt orchestrated by the sinister Count Dooku, allowing you to discover exactly how Jango earned his reputation. In many ways, the gameplay feels like the original Max Payne, but swaps the noir raincoat and slow-motion for Mandalorian armor and high-tech gadgets. Just be aware that it’s a bit dated by today's standards, but for fans of the Fett legacy (and subscribers of the PS Plus Premium), it remains a must-play.

9 Star Wars: Squadrons

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

If you enjoy those modern love letters to the space combat games of old and also happen to feel the Force, then Star Wars: Squadrons is the perfect pick for you.

This is a space combat title that reminds us a lot of the classic Ace Combat structure, masterfully balancing intense missions with atmospheric downtime where you actually get to know your fellow pilots. What makes it unique among titles in the same genre is how surprisingly immersive its campaign is, allowing you to play from both sides of the conflict – the New Republic and the Empire.

Seeing the cockpit of a TIE Interceptor or an X-Wing in such stunning graphics makes every battle feel special, especially since you can toggle between arcade and simulation controls. This makes the game accessible for casual fans while remaining deep enough for those who want to manually manage their ship's power systems like a pro.

And the multiplayer mode, you’re asking? Oh, we just don’t talk about that one... Either way, the single-player experience alone makes this a mandatory download on Game Pass for anyone looking to earn their wings.

8 Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter

Available on PlayStation Plus Premium

Whenever people talk about Star Wars flight action, names like Rogue Squadron or X-Wing usually dominate the conversation. Meanwhile, the Starfighter series (set in the Prequel era of the saga) often sits in the corner feeling a bit neglected. Well, at least now it’s waiting in the “corner” of the PS Plus library for players to rediscover its greatness.

That’s because Jedi Starfighter is a true hidden gem from the PlayStation 2 era that deserves way more love than it currently gets! Unlike the more “arcadey” shooters of its time, this title leans firmly into flight simulation, featuring complex controls and tactical maneuvers that truly emulate the life of a pilot.

It’s a rather demanding but incredibly rewarding experience once you master the craft. Also, when you remember that this is a game from three generations ago, it’s even more impressive how fresh and engaging it feels by today’s standards.

7 Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Available on PlayStation Plus Premium

Star Wars: The Clone Wars is an action-heavy title that was somewhat overshadowed by its contemporaries back in the day, but it’s a personal favorite for many who grew up with a PlayStation 2 (including myself).

It is not a perfect game by any means, especially since its campaign is relatively short for such a complex universe (about 4 hours), but it does a great job of developing Anakin’s character between the movies. Not to mention that the graphics have held up surprisingly well for its age, especially the environments and the human character retro models.

Plus, it also features one of the most underrated multiplayer modes this industry has ever seen, where you fight waves of enemies, and it’s just so extremely fun to play with friends. So if you're looking for a quick, nostalgia-fueled weekend project, this is a great pick on PS Plus.

6 LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy

Available on PlayStation Plus Premium

LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy is an absolute classic that basically helped define the LEGO gaming formula we know and love today, while also delivering one of the most fun experiences for Star Wars fans, being the perfect pick for those non-gamer ones.

It follows and recreates quite faithfully the events of the original (and let’s be honest, the best) trilogy of movies: A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. It’s the kind of game that looks simple on the surface, but it’s packed with charm, great level design, and a surprising amount of humor.

For me, it pretty much captures the magic of the Star Wars movies better than many “more serious” games, delivering a quirky and extremely fun experience that is impossible not to fall in love with. If you don’t believe me – try it on PS Plus Premium! Just make some popcorn, invite a friend or your date, and hit start. Then thank me later!

5 LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

To finish things off, we are back to building with bricks! LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is currently available in the Game Pass Ultimate library, and it is a must-play experience.

While some purists might argue it doesn’t quite capture the same magic as the old-school classic LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy, this game is a complete reimagining that covers all nine main films, meaning you get to play through every iconic era of the franchise with a huge roster of characters that feels almost endless.

It definitely has a few flaws (the story beats can feel a bit rushed since it’s trying to cram nine movies into one experience), but its open-world hubs more than make up for it. These areas are stuffed with puzzles and secrets that capture the spirit of every movie location. So it is a lighthearted ode to the entire franchise that is guaranteed to leave a smile on your face from the opening crawl to the final credits.

4 Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

By blending Souls-like combat with Metroidvania exploration and Uncharted-style set pieces, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was the single-player title that proved Star Wars can thrive in practically any genre. Beyond the gameplay, it also introduced us to one of the best protagonists in the entire saga.

I’m talking about Cal Kestis, a Padawan in hiding after the infamous Order 66. Stripped of his rank and forced into isolation, he must rediscover his connection to the Force and attempt to rebuild the Jedi Order, all while trying to keep his true identity a secret from the wrong people.

Ultimately, it is a game about growth, both in terms of narrative and mechanics, and it breathes Star Wars in every single frame and hits all the right emotional notes. If you somehow missed this one (or just want to revisit Cal’s journey), Game Pass Ultimate is the perfect excuse to finally fix that mistake.

3 Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

If Fallen Order was the spark, Survivor is a full-blown supernova, and, fortunately, Game Pass Ultimate doesn’t just offer the first chapter, including also the second, so you can keep your journey up to date without missing a beat.

This sequel basically takes everything from the first game and dials it up to eleven, but with a crucial difference: Cal is no longer a struggling Padawan, but a seasoned survivor. His new combat stances add incredible variety to the gameplay, and you can truly feel his growth. Oh, and using the Force feels more powerful and fun than ever, making you feel like a true Jedi Master in the making.

The interconnected worlds are significantly larger, the customization is much deeper (shoutout to the mullet option, please!), and the story takes a much more mature and personal turn. It deals with the high cost of fighting a losing war and the struggle to find a home when the galaxy is on fire. Honestly, it is one of the best Star Wars stories told in any medium in recent years.

2 Star Wars Outlaws

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

Breaking away from the usual Jedi-centric stories (we love them, but a breath of fresh air is more than welcome), Star Wars Outlaws delivers that classic Han Solo scoundrel lifestyle, where you play as Kay Vess, a cunning thief looking for the score of a lifetime.

It offers a unique perspective within a massive open world with beautiful locations, all filled with hidden secrets, high-stakes tasks, space dogfights, and plenty of people to swindle in shady cantinas. While the game has its quirks, such as the heavy reliance on fast travel between planets, it offers a level of freedom we have rarely seen in the franchise, making you really feel like you're navigating the dangerous underbelly of the galaxy, managing your reputation with various criminal syndicates.

It also has a NASA-punk aesthetic that is simply gorgeous, making every planet feel lived-in and gritty. In the end, it is a grounded, heist-focused adventure that proves you don’t need a lightsaber to have a grand time in this galaxy, and it is available on Game Pass Ultimate.

1 Star Wars Battlefront II: Celebration Edition

Available on Game Pass Ultimate

I know the most recent Battlefront series had a rocky start, but Battlefront II has undergone a great redemption arc, successfully moving past the launch controversies that initially held it back. Today, it stands as a fantastic experience for any Star Wars fan, offering a polished and content-rich package that honors the source material.

The single-player campaign is a standout, offering a unique look at the Empire’s collapse through the eyes of Iden Versio, an original character and elite Imperial officer – it is a fresh and compelling premise that adds a new layer to the saga’s lore. Meanwhile, the multiplayer mode remains incredibly fun and chaotic, allowing you to jump into battles as iconic characters like Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker, Boba Fett, or even Darth Vader himself!

The version available on Game Pass Ultimate is the Celebration Edition, which is packed to the brim with content, including every cosmetic item released throughout the game’s life cycle. If you have been holding out, it definitely deserves a second chance to prove why it’s one of the most immersive ways to experience the galaxy’s greatest battles.
