Summary
Star Warsis a household name with nine main films, two major spin-off films, and multiple side series spanning both live-action and animated mediums. The franchise also naturally finds its way into many different crossovers across games and television, allowing fans to see the world from new angles.
Of course, the crossover lineup wouldn’t be complete unless characters met alternate-reality versions of themselves in different what-if scenarios. It seems as if Star Wars is everywhere and won’t be going away anytime soon. These are the ten best Star Wars crossovers that you don’t want to miss out on.
10Star Wars X Fortnite
Darth Vader Invades Fortnite
One of the best crossovers in Star Wars history is its extensive collaborations with Fortnite. Legendary characters such as Luke, Leia, and Han Solo all appear in the item shop from time to time, and a Darth Vader boss also landed on the island to wreak havoc.
Other characters from theprequels and spin-offshave also appeared, such as Darth Maul and The Mandalorian. Aside from skins, Fortnite has also included Mythic weapons that allow players to wield both sides of the force and lightsabers.
9Star Wars X Lego
Lego Star Wars
Lego Star Wars remains one of the biggest collaborations Lego ever had with another IP; this crossover not only includes sets but multiple videogames that span across the entire Skywalker Saga. The games recreate iconic moments, such as the battle on Naboo and Luke’s encounter with the Emperor aboard the Death Star.
Lego Star Wars also has multiple animated TV shows, such as The Freemaker Adventures, The Yoda Chronicles, and Droid Tales. This makes the partnership between Lego and Star Wars one of the longest-standing crossovers.
8Star Wars X Phineas And Ferb
Worlds Collide
Disney and Star Wars go hand in hand nowadays. With Storm Troopers even appearing in Wreck-It Ralph 2. However, Star Wars has also had a crossover with another Disney property, Phineas and Ferb.
The show about two genius step-brothers having the best summer vacation of their lives crosses paths with the events of a New Hope. It throws characters such as Perry the Platypus, Doofenshmirtz, and Candace in with characters such as Obi-Wan, Darth Vader, and Luke while events happen parallel to the film.
7Star Wars X Soul Calibur IV
Yoda Vs Darth Vader
While a Star Wars fighting game would be a neat idea, fans would get a small taste of that vision when both Yoda and Darth Vader were added to Soul Calibur IV. Xbox 360 players can play as Yoda. Meanwhile, the PS3 version of the game includes Darth Vader.
Both versions of the game contained Galen Marek, also known as Starkiller, from The Force Unleashed, as a secret character. Eventually, both console-exclusive characters were released as DLC, allowing them to appear in each other’s story mode levels.
6Star Wars X Indiana Jones
Han Solo Meets Indiana Jones
Harrison Ford played two iconic characters in two of George Lucas’s franchises. He played the smuggler Han Solo and the archeology professor, Indiana Jones. Both characters were universes apart until one day, the world of comics brought them together.
Whenthe Millennium Falconcrash lands on Earth, Han Solo and Chewbacca are attacked with bows and arrows. Han Solo dies while Chewbacca manages to escape into the woods. Hundreds of years later, Indiana Jones discovers Han Solo’s skeleton on an expedition to find Chewbacca, who on Earth is known as Bigfoot.
5Star Wars X Brawlhalla
Crossover Mythic Skins
Brawlhalla is home to many crossover characters. This includes Finn and Jake from Adventure Time, Garnet from Steven Universe, and Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, and now, Star Wars makes a grand entrance to the fighting game.
As part of the crossover content, characters such as Obi-Wan, Anakin, Ahsoka, and Darth Vader all become playable through character skins. These Mythic Skins have their own unique attack animations and sound effects, allowing them to feel more like new members of the roster.
4Star Wars X Family Guy
A Tale Retold
Family Guy is known for making cutaway jokes every few seconds; however, there are three episodes where the cutaway gag becomes the plot. This is the Family Guy Star Wars Trilogy, in which the events of the original films are retold with a twist.
After a power outage occurs, Peter Griffin begins to tell the story of A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. With some creative liberties, many of the iconic Star Wars characters are replaced by both Family Guy and American Dad characters.
3Star Wars X The Simpsons
From Criticism To Crossover
If you come up with an idea, odds are the Simpsons have done it. A crossover with Star Wars? The Simpsons did it. Mark Hamil even appeared as a guest star in one episode, and the Simpsons even poked fun at The Phantom Menace.
The special thing about The Simpsons is that Star Wars can exist as both the franchise itself and a fictional franchise under the name Cosmic Wars. There is also another Simpsons crossover released on Disney Plus called Maggie Simpson in The Force Awakens From its Nap.
2Star Wars X Robot Chicken
Stop Motion Star Wars
Robot Chicken takes claymation and stop-motion to a whole new level; it has touched countless franchises, from The Walking Dead, to Star Trek, and Hannah Barbera. One of their earliest specials, Star Wars Robot Chicken, poked fun at everything from Jar Jar Binks to The Emperor’s visit to the Death Star.
This crossover introduced various skits and characters, such as the Storm Trooper Gary, the adventures of Yarael Poof, and what went on in Anakin’s head when he killed the younglings during Order 66.
1Angry Birds Star Wars
Give In To Anger
Angry Birds is a nostalgic trip downmobile game memory lane; after the pigs steal the bird’s eggs, they become angry and destroy all the structures created by the thieves. Angry Birds would get a crossover with the movie Rio and eventually, two Star Wars-themed games.
Angry Birds Star Wars consists of two separate games, each one taking players through the events of the Original Trilogy and the Prequel Trilogy. Each bird takes the role of an iconic Star Wars character with their unique powers, such as force abilities and blasters, and they even gave the iconic soundtrack a polka remix.
