Star Wars video games: A visual history

We recap the last 27 years of video games based on George Lucas's enormously influential Star Wars franchise.

1995



Dark Forces (PC) throws Star Wars into the first-person shooter realm-and adds to Star Wars canon with Imperial-officer-turned-Rebel-merc Kyle Katarn, who must stop the Empire's attempt to create droid "supersoldiers."

A distress call leads to Rookie One stumbling upon a secret project that could doom the Rebel Alliance.
