10 Star Wars Games EA Must Make After Jedi: Fallen Order

3. A Star Wars Rebels Game

There once was a time where the true mark of a TV show's quality stemmed from whether or not they got a mid-tier tie-in game to go along with it. Every cartoon on the planet had one, so it's a shame that Star Wars Rebels was born too late to follow in those footsteps.

Frankly, the entire formula is begging for a video game adaptation. We've seen with the later Sly Cooper games that adding more characters with their own unique abilities adds layers of complexity to different levels, and since Rebels is about guerrilla warfare, a video game adaptation could add some much needed variety to the Star Wars video game lineup by focusing on stealth.

Once you view a Star Wars Rebels game through that lens, it practically creates itself. Each level would focus on the crew pulling a job, where you have to switch on the fly between characters to get different parts of the job done without getting noticed by the stormtroopers or inquisitors.

Star Wars Rebels has thankfully not been forgotten by the franchise, given that the cast's ship keeps showing up in the movies. So Ezra and the crew of the Ghost should have a game all their own.
