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 those early handheld action games that tried to capture the feel of the prequel trilogy, with a top-down perspective that worked well on the small screen. You play as Anakin Skywalker, set between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, tasked with stopping Count Dooku’s latest mechanical menace.

You control Anakin through a series of missions, slashing battle droids with your lightsaber and using Force powers like Push and Lightning to clear rooms. The game plays out screen by screen, locking you into combat arenas until all enemies are defeated. You collect health and Force power-ups, and the pacing is fairly relentless; the difficulty spikes when larger droids or environmental hazards crowd the area. It feels like a straightforward, sometimes repetitive brawler that relies on quick reflexes and knowing when to dodge.
