Star Wars is a series filled with excellent video games. A few of them I even consider my favorite all-time video games. I have thought of some ideas (realistic ones, so no KOTOR III, although you better believe I'd want that) of games that someone should make. There may have even been rumors about a few of these, so I may have had some insight on a couple of these.
- Star Wars: The Mandalorian Video Game
How can a video game not accompany this awesome show? In the very first episode I thought this would make a great video game. You would complete various bounties across the galaxy, and each time you would be able to earn beskar/credits to spend on new armor, guns, and upgrades. It doesn't have to be based on "The Mandalorian" AKA Din Djarin, but it could be. You could be another Mandalorian. Although it would be cool to have "The Child" with you on missions like on the show. One thing I thought of was it would be cool if they styled it as like a Star Wars version of "Destiny". You can choose different missions on different planets, and sometimes try to find various items. And it would be a great opportunity to have an open world Star Wars game.
- Star Wars: Battle Commander
I don't have the clearest idea for this game, but simply put I see this as a modern version of Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds. It would probably be PC only. You would gather resources, build up an army, and then attack an enemy. There would be elements of the sequel trilogy in this. You wouldn't control the actual army, (like where they aim), but you would be able to tell them what to do. It just would be cool to have a more realistic-looking Star Wars strategy game. I'd also like it if they let you simulate different scenarios to see who would win, such as 50 Gungans vs. 5 Droideka's, or 100 Clone Troopers vs. an AT-AT.
- Star Wars: Casino Games
It's not the best title, but it's the best I could come up with. I could see this as an Android/iPhone app. The game would feature all of the board/card games from Star Wars, including Dejarik, Pazaak, Sabaac, and others (Maybe slots?). You could have a profile, and try to accumulate credits by winning games. And they could include different locales you could play games at, from Canto Bight (obviously) to perhaps cantinas on Tattooine or Coruscant.
- Star Wars: Stormtrooper
There have been countless Star Wars games where you fight against Stormtroopers: The Jedi Knight series, Battlefront, The Force Unleashed, and Jedi: Fallen Order. But what about playing as a Stormtrooper? Sure, you can do that in Battlefront, but I'd like a game where you go through the training of being a Stormtrooper. You rise through the ranks and are forced to do some morally gray actions. Then, when your character has had enough, they desert the Empire and fight as a renegade/outcast. This could even be about a Clone Trooper or a First Order Stormtrooper if the developers wanted. But being a character that we get to know in the suit would be pretty cool. And of course, the ability to pilot a speeder, AT-ST, or even AT-AT would be pretty darn cool (from a first person perspective). Basically, I'd like to see a Star Wars: Republic Commando, but from a Stormtrooper's perspective.
- Star Wars: Battle Experience
Again, don't hold the title against me. This one I see as a Virtual Reality Game. Once Virtual Reality or something similar becomes more common in households around the world, they could make this game. You put on the VR headset and you get instantly immersed into a Star Wars battle. Imagine VR and physically feeling like you're in the Battle of Hoth, the Battle of Endor, the Battle of Geonosis, or the Battle of Naboo. I would just be in heaven. I believe VR video games will be fairly common some day in the not so distant future, and they would have to make a Star Wars game to go with it.
Those are my Top 5 Star Wars video game ideas. I really hope at least one or two of these are made. If they are, I will definitely buy them and play them. It will be interesting to see years from now how close these games are to happening, if they ever will.
