12 Awesome Star Wars Games That Need New Remakes: Page 8 of 12
5. Star Wars Republic Commando (2005)
The tactical shooting gameplay, with interesting squadmate characters with their own unique abilities, is still fun today.
It seems crazy that we never got a sequel or update for Republic Commando, considering how well the formula worked, and how much fans liked it. Perhaps the squad-based tactical shooter genre started to become less popular, but I think we're more than overdue for a new release focusing on Star Wars troopers.
The characters all have their own interesting backstories, which is the highlight of the game.
A story showing us the other side of The First Order, the 'bad guys' of The Force Awakens, using the same kind of squad-command gameplay, would offer players a great look at a different story. Republic Commando's class-based puzzle solving and combat, with its inside-the-helmet HUD view in first-person, was a unique Star Wars experience that should absolutely be updated and released again.

Now i know i'm late to the party but agree with this list. I've played most of the games on there and i can say from experience that they need remakes. Good job!

Whoa, I never thought I'd see a list like this with Yoda Stories in it! And I'm 100% with you on this. As trash-talked as the game is (from what I've seen), I actually played it to death! I thoroughly enjoyed the procedurally generated levels and goals and still think that it's a great rougelike-thingy. Would LOVE to see a remake of this, or even a console port. Also agree on Jedi Power Battles being a fun co-op game, and Republic Commando as well as the Jedi Knight series totally deserves more entries. Heads-up to anyone reading this who enjoy action-packed beat 'em ups: Revenge of the Sith on Game Boy Advance and DS is actually an amazing game of the genre that features character progression, path choosing and even offers co-op! Don't miss out on this one - trust me you should :)
