Game Description
Super Star Wars brings the epic saga of Star Wars: A New Hope to life on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in a cinematic action-adventure experience. Developed by Sculptured Software and published by Nintendo in 1992, this ambitious 16-bit adaptation lets players relive the legendary journey of Luke Skywalker from Tatooine farm boy to Rebel hero.

The combination of responsive controls, weapon upgrades, and multi-character gameplay keeps each level engaging and memorable.
For collectors and fans alike, Super Star Wars stands as a cornerstone of the SNES library—both a technological achievement and a love letter to George Lucas’s timeless saga. Its blend of cinematic presentation and pure arcade action makes it one of the most celebrated licensed titles of the 16-bit era, and a must-own piece of Star Wars and Nintendo history.
