For Star Wars Day 2026, the official StarWars.com highlights two major categories: new products for collectors and fans, and a wide package of gaming announcements, discounts, and digital events. The merchandise guide was published on April 27, 2026, while the gaming guide was published on April 30, 2026.
This year's merchandise is focused on fans of all generations. Among the highlighted products are the Star Wars: The Black Series Darth Vader Mini Helmet and Clone Captain Rex Mini Helmet by Hasbro, the new LEGO Ultimate Collector Series The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter set with 1,809 pieces, Funko Bitty POP version of Mando with the N-1 Starfighter, Grogu-themed products, Loungefly bag, a coloring book inspired by The Mandalorian and Grogu, and even a Grogu version of the cargo robot gitamini by Piaggio Fast Forward.
This shows that Star Wars as a brand no longer lives solely through movies and series. Today, it is a whole ecosystem: collectible items, LEGO sets, clothing, books, food, lifestyle products, digital content, and games. May the 4th thus functions as an annual “reset” for fans — a moment when Lucasfilm and partners activate the entire network of products, announcements, and experiences.
The gaming part of Star Wars Day 2026 is particularly strong. The biggest news is Star Wars: Galactic Racer, a new game set to release on October 6, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The game features racing with repulsorcraft vehicles, including landspeeders, skim speeders, speeder bikes, and pod racers, along with a single-player campaign and online multiplayer.
Additionally, Monopoly Star Wars: Heroes vs. Villains has been announced, set to release on June 11 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, GeForce NOW, and PC, while Star Wars Zero Company arrives during 2026 as a single-player tactical game set in the final phase of the Clone Wars.
Existing titles have not been forgotten either. PowerWash Simulator 2 is getting a Star Wars Pack with locations and ships from the original trilogy, Brawlhalla introduces Luke Skywalker and other Star Wars characters, and Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is launching a new season focused on the New Republic, with bonuses, events, and monthly login rewards.
For players looking to fill their library, May the 4th 2026 brings serious discounts. The EA Star Wars Triple Bundle, which includes Star Wars: Squadrons, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition, and Star Wars Battlefront II: Celebration Edition, is available with discounts of up to 80% from April 30 to May 7. Individually, Battlefront II is up to 75% off, Jedi: Fallen Order up to 90%, Jedi: Survivor up to 85%, and Squadrons up to 90%, depending on the date and platform.
Discounts extend to other platforms as well. Nintendo has offers up to 65% from May 1 to May 10, PlayStation up to 75% from May 1 to May 4, Xbox up to 75% from May 1 to May 5, Steam and GOG up to 75% from April 30 to May 5, while the Epic Games Store has special offers from April 30 to May 7.
The conclusion is simple: May the 4th 2026 is not just a day of nostalgia, but a coordinated celebration of the entire Star Wars ecosystem. Collectors are getting new figures, helmets, LEGO sets, and lifestyle products. Gamers are getting new announcements, DLC content, mobile events, and big discounts. Casual fans are getting the perfect excuse to rewatch a movie, buy a gift, or play a classic they missed.
In other words, the Force is strongest this year where fandom meets experience: on the shelf, in the game, in the collection, and in the community.
