The Jedi Knight series of video-games introduced Kyle Katarn, a Jedi Master, and his Padawan Jaden Korr. A video game is defined as any game played on a console, any interactive gaming software, or any computer game where the primary feedback mechanism is a video display. ## Game genres - First-person shooter (FPS) games are computer or video games where the player experiences the game from the perspective of a character within the game. These games commonly involve firearms and other types of weaponry. Star Wars: Dark Forces and its sequels, along with Star Wars: Republic Commando, are all examples of FPS games. For more examples, see Category:First-person shooters. - Flight simulators are games where the player takes on the role of a pilot, controlling an aircraft or spacecraft against opponents or navigating through obstacles. Examples of flight simulators include the X-wing and TIE Fighter series, the Rogue Squadron series, the Starfighter series, and Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed. - Real-time strategy (RTS) games are typically computer games where the player observes multiple characters from an overhead perspective. In these games, players generally command groups of characters without directly engaging in combat themselves. Examples of RTS games include Star Wars: Rebellion, Star Wars: Force Commander, Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, and Star Wars: Empire at War. - Role-playing games (RPGs) are computer or video games where the player views the character from a third-person perspective, making choices that ultimately influence the game's narrative. Examples of RPGs include Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. They share similarities with tabletop roleplaying games. - Massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) are online games where players assume the roles of characters and interact with one another on a large scale. These games often feature diverse environments and numerous non-player characters (NPCs) to create a more immersive experience. Examples include Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures, and Star Wars: The Old Republic. ## List of Star Wars games in order of publication ### 1980s #### 1982 - The first Star Wars video game was Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
