Star Wars: Republic Commando first came out for Xbox and PC all the way back in 2005, and as a tactical first person shooter, it was quite different from what you expect to see in a Star Wars game. It was also quite good though, and if you agree with that, there’s good news for you.
As was recently leaked, Star Wars: Republic Commando will be releasing for PS4 and Nintendo Switch this April. Aspyr Media – who also handled recently re-releases for Star Wars Episode 1: Racer, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, and Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast – will be publishing the game. Aspyr were recently acquired by Embracer Group.
There’s no mention yet of an Xbox release (which is ironic, considering the fact that the game was an Xbox console exclusive when it launched originally)- the game is, however, playable on Xbox via backward compatibility, so there’s that.
On PS4 and Nintendo Switch though, the game will cost $14.99. It launches on April 6. You can watch the announcement trailer below.
