Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles Gets Post-Launch Update

Aspyr has released the first post-launch patch for the controversial Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles. This update for Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles brings a host of important bug fixes to Aspyr’s 2025 re-release.

When it was announced that Aspyr was re-releasing Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles, it was largely met with confusion. The 2000 hack-and-slash title wasn’t exactly among the most critically acclaimed Star Wars games of all time, so it was surprising that the studio dedicated resources to bringing it to modern audiences without extensive changes to improve it. Although the re-release launched to the same mixed reviews as the original, it’s still fun that Aspyr decided to bring the game back for those with nostalgia for it, regardless of its reception.

Players will soon be able to get their hands on new DLC for Star Wars Outlaws, free of charge.

Aspyr posted the latest patch notes for Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles online, describing it as “the post-launch patch.” It’s not clear if this means it’s the only post-launch patch that will be released for the game, or if it will be supported further than this update, which is now available across all platforms for the game. This patch consists entirely of bug fixes, many of which seem to resolve various crashes in the 2000 Star Wars game.

Although the reviews for Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles‘ rerelease may not have been what Aspyr hoped, it’s good to see that the developer is continuing to support the game post-launch with crucial fixes where necessary. It would have been easy for the studio to leave the game to be forgotten, especially with a 24-hour peak player count of just 10 on Steam. However, this shows the developer’s commitment to creating the best game possible, even if it’s post-launch.

It’s going to be an interesting period for Star Wars fans in the video game space. Ubisoft’s Star Wars Outlaws is set to release its second DLC expansion in May, as it looks to improve on disappointing sales from last year. Meanwhile, EA revealed Star Wars Zero Company at Star Wars Celebration, a new turn-based tactical game from developers Bit Reactor and Respawn, coming in 2026. This means there should be a good variety of content for fans to enjoy.
