10 Single-Player Star Wars Games EA MUST Make After Jedi: Fallen Order

9. Star Wars Racer 3

Like or loathe The Phantom Menace, there’s no denying the quality of the pod racing games it gave us.

Episode 1: Racer and its sequel Racer Revenge were fast, frantic titles which let us play as everyone from Anakin Skywalker to Ody Mandrell, as we weaved and dodged our way across the plains of Tatooine all the way to the methane lakes of Malastare.

If the original games were that good on the Dreamcast and PS1, imagine what a new entry would be like on Xbox Series X and PS5.

Next generation graphics, sound and frame rate would add a much deeper layer of immersion to the races, and potential VR compatibility would go even further still in this regard.

Flesh out the roster with some original characters, or even massage the official canon a bit to allow some for some more recognisable faces (Tobias Becket? Greez?), weave a compelling narrative, and EA could have a Boonta classic here.

Finally, and perhaps most importantly, while the emphasis should most definitely be on delivering an exciting, fast-paced, single player racing game deeply entrenched in Star Wars lore and iconography, the potential for a competitive online mode would guarantee that this game flies off shelves faster than Sebulba off the staring line.
