Welcome Delta Squad to the PlayStation family.
Republic Commando is a fan favorite, and nobody knows that better than Aspyr. Trust me, we’ve read many, many, many tweets and comments requesting it. We’re happy to say that your requests will finally be answered.
That’s right, Aspyr Media is bringing Star Wars Republic Commando to PlayStation 4 for the first time April 6 and yes, we included a platinum trophy.
It’s been a few years since the original release, so allow me to reintroduce you to Star Wars Republic Commando and Delta Squad.
Get tactical
In Star Wars Republic Commando, you’ve got your trusty blaster rifle and your squad of elite clone troopers at your side. The game adds a tactical layer to the first person shooter genre with squad commands.
You’ll play as Delta Squad leader RC-1138, AKA Delta Three-Eight, AKA “Boss,” but no clone is alone. The squad is your weapon, especially when you call the shots with maneuvers. Sure, your squadmates can maintain formation and execute tactics on their own, but the key to success is directing your squad to victory.
These maneuvers include commands to perform special tasks like demolitions or door breaches, search and destroy commands, and calls for your squad to form-up behind you. Your squad can even revive you when you fall in battle!
A Superfan’s delight
You may not have played Star Wars Republic Commando, but you might recognize Delta Squad from the TV show Star Wars: The Clone Wars in the episode “Witches From the Mist.” Fun fact: this is the first appearance of a clone commando unit in that series!
Of course, that’s not the only connection Delta Squad has to the Star Wars universe at large. Boba Fett, Jango Fett, and fearless Delta Squad leader Delta Three-Eight have all been voiced by Temuera Morrison, who recently reprised the role of Boba Fett in season two of The Mandalorian.
Same 2005 Classic, new modernized controls
Here at Aspyr, we respect the classics. We’ve done our best to faithfully recreate the original Star Wars Republic Commando feel with a few modern twists.
What worked in 2005 doesn’t translate perfectly to modern hardware. That’s why we updated the controls to feel just right on the DualShock 4 and DualSense controllers (playable on PS5 via backwards compatibility).
Of course, no Aspyr port would be complete without new trophies to hunt. As you make your way through the game’s you’ll earn trophies for everything from completing campaigns to fending off droids. My personal favorite is Squeaky Clean, which you can earn by keeping your tactical visor (you guessed it) squeaky clean.
We’re so happy that we can bring y’all Republic Commando April 6, so send our regards to Kamino!
I love that your team keeps bringing these games over. Would be awesome if you could do the KOTOR games too =)
Is it going to be a ps4 plus game?
Been waiting for this for so long! Will it get a physical release?
It most likely will later via Limited Run Games. All of the other Star Wars ports for Aspyr have so far
Yaaaaay double the price for a physical version. Man there are some suckers out there. Anyway it’s like three gigs in size, asking for a physical release is an absurdity. Let it go.
ya dude I play this game for so ling and really love it. I cant wait and I hope it does get a physical copy because it would be nice to own a physical one.
Is the multiplayer going to be available?
No multiplayer, which is fine imo.
Yeah I’m stoked! This one has been on the bucket list for a long time
It would be so sweet if they brought multiplayer. Just like the good ole days
no there is it said something about 16 player multiplayer. I will see if I can find it.
This has been on ps now for some time. Only update is the control scheme. Just play it on now
Are you thinking of a different star wars game?
it been only on XboxBC and PC until now
they would have need to make a PS2, PS3, PS4 version to even make it on PS now

You’re thinking of some other game. This isn’t on PlayStation as of yet
This is great news, and thank you for updating the controls — just remember to put an inverted Y-axis toggle in there this time :)
I’ve always wanted to play this game back then but it was never available on PlayStation. Now my only concern is how it’s aged.
“and yes, we included a platinum trophy.”
How to make your post lose value 101 – mentioning trophies/achievements.
If you haven’t played it on a PC by this point, all I have to say is wow, expand your horizons a bit.
Never say no to bacta
Okay the werewolf game shouldn’t even have been made for ps5 it’s garbage
Best non-State of Play announcement ever.
this is the best game in the star wars series I grew up playing it and I still do my brother and I played it all the time and we have a lot of good memories of it and I am really excited for it to come to playstation!
Omg i played this many years ago on PC i still own it but dont have PC anymore, Im going to buy this on PSN!!!!! I am going to love this!!! I love the clone wars era and love this games gameplay! Everyone will love. It is a nice gift. ☺💝
Awwwwwww yiiiiiiisssss been waiting for this for a long time. Hopefully there’s a physical release, if not I’ll settle with a derp* digital.
Any graphical upgrades? People are used to something new after the Halo: Master Chief Collection
It is too bad it is not a remake like re2. But it is a great game. Can’t wait to play it again
I know what I’m playin May 4th this year.
I used to play this game all the time. It’s the best!!!
You see my name that hasn’t changed once since I got a ps3 and with tears in my eyes I ask you when do I get to pre-order this, my favorite game ever made…
Will it be on all region?? Cuz Star Wars jedi outcast and academy doesn’t have on R3..
Am wishing that Amazon get’s this so I can buy the game cause otherwise I’ll never be able to get the game for my PS4. I’ve missed playing this game and have been hoping for a PS4 release since I got my PS4.
Amazon need’s this game. ^^
You guys and gals are literally the best!
