In 1992, the original trilogy was released on VHS in letterbox format in the United States. The video quality was taken from the 1989–1990 American letterbox LaserDiscs. The set also had a fourth tape, From Star Wars to Jedi: The Making of a Saga, and an edited version of the book George Lucas: The Creative Impulse.

A new box set on VHS and LaserDisc came out on June 16, 1995. This was the last time the original versions of the Classic Trilogy were released on these formats, digitally mastered in THX. The widescreen LaserDisc used the same video transfer as the 1993 Definitive Collection set. The only extra feature was a three-part interview with George Lucas about the trilogy, led by Leonard Maltin. These releases in the U.S. were also the first time the 1995 domestic 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment logo was used on home video, shown without the fade-out.

Outside of the United States and Canada, the Classic Trilogy was sold with new posters made by John Alvin.

The Special Edition versions of the original trilogy were released on VHS and LaserDisc on August 26, 1997. The VHS tapes were available in either pan-and-scan or widescreen formats and had short videos about how the new versions were made.

Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace was released on video around the world between April 3 and 8, 2000. It was only available on VHS, but a LaserDisc version in English was released in Japan, and it was also put on the Video CD format in most of Asia.

The Star Wars Trilogy VHS set was reprinted and repackaged in 2000. The covers now had logos similar to those used for The Phantom Menace (episode numbers and subtitles). They were also released on Video CD at this time. The Special Edition versions were used, but this wasn't mentioned on the packaging. The same changes were made to the Japanese LaserDisc. This was the last time the original trilogy was released on VHS, and the final Star Wars release on LaserDisc.

The Phantom Menace was released on DVD as a two-disc set in 2001, two years after it was in theaters. It was the first Star Wars film officially released on DVD. George Lucas edited and added several scenes to the DVD version, making it a bit different and longer than the original movie shown in theaters. The DVD also has commentary from George Lucas, producer Rick McCallum, editor Ben Burtt, animation director Rob Coleman, and visual effects supervisors John Knoll, Dennis Muren, and Scott Squires. There's also a hidden extra (easter egg of on-set bloopers that can be found in the sound menu by selecting THX and pressing 1138.

The second DVD in the set has these bonus features:

• Seven scenes that were removed, which can be watched on their own or as part of a documentary called Deleted Scenes
• The Beginning: Making Episode I - a one-hour documentary about how the movie was made
• A set of 12 short documentaries that were originally on Lucasfilm's website
• Five short videos about the story, design, costumes, visual effects, and fight scenes in the film
• A segment showing how storyboards turned into animated scenes and then into the final film, featuring the submarine and podrace lap 1 sequences
• The music video for " Duel of the Fates " with John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra
• A gallery of production photos with captions
• Posters and print advertisements
• The original teaser and launch trailers
• Seven TV commercials
• Star Wars: Starfighter - a video from LucasArts about how the game was made

This DVD release isn't as good as the later Star Wars DVDs. It used a video transfer from the film that was shown in theaters, instead of using a digital master. However, the Blu-ray version had the image quality improved digitally from the DVD release, and a digital Yoda replaced the original puppet, along with other changes. The film was also released on VHS.

The Story of Star Wars was released on three VideoNow Color discs.

Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones was released on VHS and DVD in November 2002 as a two-disc set. The picture and sound were made from the original digital source. George Lucas edited or added some things, so the DVD version is a bit different from the movie that was in theaters. The DVD also has commentary from George Lucas, producer Rick McCallum, editor Ben Burtt, animation director Rob Coleman, and visual effects supervisors Pablo Helman, John Knoll, and Ben Snow. There's also a hidden extra (on-set bloopers) that can be found in the sound menu by selecting THX and pressing 1138, as well as a DVD-ROM website archive of HoloNet News.

The second DVD in the set has these bonus features:

• Eight deleted scenes with an introduction by George Lucas
• From Puppets to Pixels - a documentary about digital characters in the movie

• A trailer for the R2-D2: Beneath the Dome mockumentary
• A montage showing how the visual effects in "Episode II" were made

The film was also released on VHS and a three-disc Video CD. The release included the eight deleted scenes which played after the end credits. These included deleted scenes and a segment of Star Wars: Connections.

R2-D2: Beneath the Dome is a 20-minute mockumentary that was made for fun by the cast and crew of Attack of the Clones. It uses interviews, fake old photos, clips from the film, and behind-the-scenes footage to tell the "true" story of R2-D2's life. It was released on DVD on December 26, 2002. The DVD had all three parts that were originally shown on US TV and on StarWars.com, plus the end credits and a hidden extra of photos of R2-D2 on the sets of the Star Wars films. This DVD wasn't promoted much when it was released.

The Star Wars Trilogy DVD set, released in September 2004, was the first time the original trilogy was released on DVD. It was a four-disc set with:

• Star Wars : Episode IV A New Hope
• Star Wars : Episode V The Empire Strikes Back
• Star Wars : Episode VI Return of the Jedi
• Star Wars Original Trilogy Bonus Disc

The movies on the DVDs were the 1997 Special Edition versions with some additional changes made just for this release. These included a lot of high-definition digital cleanup and some major changes to the images to make the films look more like the prequel trilogy. Each movie DVD also has commentary from George Lucas, Ben Burtt, Dennis Muren, and Carrie Fisher (the Empire Strikes Back commentary also has Irvin Kershner).

The fourth DVD in the set has these bonus features:

On November 23, 2004, Lucasfilm and 20th Century Fox released both "Ewoks" made-for-TV movies on DVD. The films are shown in their original 1.33:1 aspect ratio with a Dolby Digital 2.0 English audio track and English subtitles. The release was called Star Wars: Ewok Adventures, a "double feature" of Caravan of Courage and its sequel, The Battle for Endor. The DVD is double-sided, with one film on each side. The DVD release didn't have any extra features.

Ewoks was released on DVD on November 23, 2004 as an edited collection called Star Wars Animated Adventures: Ewoks. It has eight episodes from the original series, edited into two full-length films. Episodes 2, 1, 3, and 9 were edited to make The Haunted Village, and episodes 10, 5, 4, and 13 were edited to make Tales from the Endor Woods. The Haunted Village puts four loosely related episodes into one story, while Tales from the Endor Woods connects four seemingly unrelated stories with a voiceover by Alex Lindsay, who is meant to be an adult Wicket. The original opening credits and theme song aren't included in the films, and were replaced with simple credit sequences.

Droids was released on DVD on November 23, 2004 as an edited collection called Star Wars Animated Adventures: Droids. It has eight episodes from the original series, edited into two full-length films. Episodes 5–8 were edited to make The Pirates and the Prince, and episodes 10–13 were edited to make Treasure of the Hidden Planet. The Pirates and the Prince puts four of the five episodes of the Mon Julpa story into one story, while Treasure of the Hidden Planet puts the four episodes of the Mungo Baobab story into one story. Even though "Coby and the Starhunters" was originally part of the Mon Julpa story, it's not in the film version. The original opening credits and theme song aren't included in the films, and were replaced with simple credit sequences. Besides cutting the theme song, many other small changes were made for the home video releases, especially to the soundtrack.

The first volume of the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated TV series was released on DVD on March 22, 2005. It has seasons one and two, which are made up of Chapters 1–20. The DVD also has these features:

• Commentary by Genndy Tartakovsky
• Bridging the Saga - a documentary about the series showing the events between Episodes II and III
• Trailers for the Episode III movie and video game
• A gallery of concept art
• A playable Xbox demo for Star Wars: Republic Commando.

The Saga Edition of Star Wars Trivial Pursuit has a DVD where Star Wars fans ask questions to the viewer.

The Star Wars: A Musical Journey bonus DVD was included with the soundtrack album for John Williams's music for Revenge of the Sith, released May 3, 2005. The DVD is over an hour long and has music videos from the Star Wars films, set to music from Williams's scores. It also has a preview trailer for the Revenge of the Sith video game. Each clip has an introduction by actor Ian McDiarmid. The DVD can be watched with or without this introduction.

On November 5, 2013, a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack of the prequel trilogy was released.

Also released on November 5 was a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack of the original trilogy.

The sixth and final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, dubbed The Lost Missions, was released on Blu-ray and DVD on November 11, 2014.

The DVD release of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith occurred on November 1, 2005. This two-disc edition was notable for its picture and sound, which were derived from the original digital master. George Lucas, along with producer Rick McCallum, animation director Rob Coleman, and visual effects supervisors John Knoll and Roger Guyett, contributed audio commentary to the movie DVD. Uniquely, Revenge of the Sith lacked any immediately obvious alterations by George Lucas compared to its theatrical release, setting it apart from other Star Wars DVD releases. However, a subtle change was discovered: the original fade between Obi-Wan Kenobi's departure from Mustafar and Vader's emergence from the lava was removed. Furthermore, this DVD broke tradition by omitting a hidden blooper reel, opting instead for a rap video featuring a dancing Yoda and clone troopers.

The second disc of the DVD set included a variety of supplemental materials:

• Six deleted scenes, each prefaced with introductions by George Lucas and Rick McCallum
• Within a Minute, a documentary exploring the creation of the Mustafar duel
• The Chosen One, a featurette tracing Darth Vader's journey through episodes I–VI
• It's All for Real: The Stunts of Episode III, a featurette focusing on the film's stunts

• The A Hero Falls music video
• A production photo gallery accompanied by captions
• Marketing materials including posters and print advertisements

• Theatrical teasers and the official launch trailer
• Television commercials

On December 6, 2005, the second volume of the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series was made available on DVD. This volume encompasses Season Three of the show, specifically Chapters 21 through 25. The DVD also offers the following supplementary features:

• Connecting the Dots, a documentary exploring the series' connection to Revenge of the Sith
• A gallery of concept art

• Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope
• Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back
• Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi

The original unaltered versions of the initial trilogy were officially released for fans on DVD on September 12, 2006. Each film was presented across two DVDs. The first DVD contained the 2004 remastered versions, while the second DVD included the original versions, sourced from the 1993 LaserDisc editions, as "bonus" content. Lucasfilm asserted that the second DVD presented each movie in its original theatrical form. However, these versions were essentially the 1993 LaserDisc masters (which had numerous visual and audio differences from the 1977 theatrical cuts) with the "Episode IV" subtitle removed and the updated star field replaced with the original. Many sound and visual effects shots created for pre-1993 home video releases are still present in this version.

A 2008 calendar titled The Art of Star Wars included this DVD.

These re-packaged releases featured the same versions of the movies as previously released two-disc editions of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace (2001), Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones (2002), Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith (2005), and original unaltered trilogy (2006).
