Star Wars The Force Awakens is less than a year away. However when it comes to Android games, Star Wars has been in full force, pardon the pun. 2014 saw multiple game releases along with some game removals. On the cusp of a new generation of Star Wars, we should take a look at what we have been given this year, so we can reflect, and better ourselves as Star Wars enthusiasts.
What some would argue as one of the best Star Wars games to be released, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic has finally made its way to Android devices today thanks to Aspyr Media and Bioware. This is the full Action-RPG that was released for the Xbox back in 2003.
“There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?” these words in the teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens sent shivers down my spine, for the first time since 2005 I was seeing live action Star Wars footage.

Two Star Wars games, Tiny Death Star and Star Wars Assault Team, have been removed from the Google Play Store, in a move to shift focus to “higher priority” games. This is referring to the recent Star Wars mobile release, Star Wars Commander.
Disney Interactive’s official Tumblr page revealed the logo for an upcoming Star Wars mobile game, includes Android, called Star Wars Commander. Not much information was given on the game other than that it is a strategy game consisting of elements from the Star Wars universe; as in characters, locations, and technology. The game is being released in limited early access on Android along with iOS in “select international markets” but will release worldwide sometime this summer.
After taking a bit of a break with doing the weekly Android game sales round-ups, we are back with them once more! With that said, right now we have a decent amount of Android games on sale and what is even better is that a lot of these games are good. Final Fantasy IV, Flashout 3D, and Principia are some of the games on sale right now.
Zen Studios is really promoting their upcoming expansion to their Star Wars pinball series, releasing a new trailer for one of the four upcoming new pinball tables each week. This week is no different with the release of the Star Wars: Masters of the Force pinball table trailer.
Disney has announced over Twitter that they are currently working on a new game called Star Wars: Assault Team.

Zen Studios have announced four additional Star Wars themed pinball tables that will be heading to Star Wars pinball in the near future. These new tables are basically a new expansion to Star Wars Pinball called Star Wars Pinball: Heroes Within. Like previous tables, these new ones will highlight specific events from the actual movies.
