Play Star Wars : The New Droid Army Online

Star Wars: The New Droid Army came out for the Game Boy Advance in 2002, published by THQ. It was one of many Star Wars titles on the handheld, arriving when developers were still figuring out how to translate larger action adventures to the small screen. You step into the boots of Anakin Skywalker, set between the events of Attack of the Clones and the Clone Wars cartoon that was new at the time.

You control Anakin from an isometric perspective, moving screen by screen through locations like Coruscant and Naboo. Your main goal is to stop a Separatist plot involving a new type of battle droid. You use your lightsaber for close combat, deflecting blaster bolts back at enemies, and occasionally wield the Force to push objects or stun groups of foes. The game is structured around completing missions, which often involve finding key items or defeating all enemies in an area to progress. The pacing is straightforward, though some later levels can feel repetitive due to similar enemy encounters. It feels like a compact, portable Star Wars adventure that captures the basic fantasy of being a Jedi.
