Nintendo Switch eShop Weekly Update Brings More Star Wars to the Console

Written by Brandon Hofer on May 04, 2023

News: A bunch of new games will become available over the next few days, including some classics from the Star Wars franchise.

The weekly Nintendo update is upon us and has quite a lot to choose from. This week there are two featured titles, a bit smaller than what we had last week. This is in addition to the over 30 other games that will be arriving in the eShop over the next few days. This week’s update is smaller overall but there still seems to be a pretty big selection for you. Each game that you see listed below is available right now unless otherwise noted.

Fortnite

Fortnite Battle Royale takes a look back in the Star Wars timeline with Find the Force. Running until May 23, 2023, at 9 a.m. ET you’ll be able to choose your trainer. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker as your Jedi trainers or Darth Maul as your Sith trainer. Use Force abilities taught by one of these lightsaber-wielders to show your opponents the way of the light … or dark side. These abilities include Force Push, Force Pull and Force Throw. Complete Quests, earn cosmetic rewards, purchase the Premium Reward Track Upgrade and more in Fortnite’s Find the Force.

Star Wars Heritage Pack

Learn the way of the Force from Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, take control of a speeding Podracer and lead an elite squad of clones. The Star Wars Heritage Pack features seven classic games including Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Star Wars Episode I Racer, Star Wars Republic Commando, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.
