Star Wars Republic Commando, the fan-favorite first-person-shooter, is being ported by Aspyr this April for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.
When I was younger, my siblings and I played a lot of Star Wars Republic Commando. Unfortunately, as we were only bairns, we never got past the first few missions out of pure fear. Well, now that Aspyr, the folks behind Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy and Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, are bringing it to the Switch and PlayStation 4, I may finally be able to complete it!
What Is Star Wars Republic Commando?
It is a squad-based first-person shooter from 2005. Focusing on a team of elite Republic Commandos known as Delta Squad, you must navigate the harrowing Clone Wars and complete your assigned missions with absolute caution. It was a revolutionary game for 2005 with its squad-based mechanics and heralded as a legendary title. Now, you’ll get a chance to experience it in all its glory on newer systems! Here’s what you can expect:
- Experience an epic 9-hour single-player campaign through the Star Wars world
- Work together with your squad, Boss, Fixer, Scorch and Sev. Perform complex commands to get through each mission safely
- Blast your way through hordes of enemies, including Trandoshan mercenaries and the flying insectoid warriors of Geonosis
