14 DAY TRIAL // May the 4th is quickly becoming one of the biggest unofficial holidays in the world and the various digital distribution services of the video game world are determined to offer players access to a range of content associated with the Star Wars series.
The most significant price cuts and the biggest array of content can be found on the PC, where Steam is offering most titles linked to the science fiction universe with a 70 percent price cut.
Picking up a title here and there is possible, but the star of the sale is clearly the Star Wars Collection 2015, which allows access to a wide range of video games including Star Wars Battlefront 2, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith, Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2, Republic Commando, Starfighter, The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes, The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition, Dark Forces, Knights of the Old Republic, Knights of the Old Republic 2, Empire at War: Gold Pack and The Force Unleashed.
There are some great titles included in the package, with the potential to offer tens of hours of fun for Star Wars fans, and it will cost less than a new AAA title.
