Aspyr has unveiled a surprising addition to the upcoming re-release of Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles for modern consoles: the infamous Jar Jar Binks is now a playable character! A new trailer showcases Jar Jar wielding a large staff and delivering his signature brand of chaotic energy.
The 2000 original Jedi Power Battles featured beloved characters and locations from Episode I: The Phantom Menace. This updated version aims to capture that nostalgia while adding exciting new content. Along with customizable lightsaber colors and cheat code support, players will enjoy a significantly expanded roster of playable characters.
The newly released trailer offers a glimpse of Jar Jar Binks in action, battling enemies with his staff. While some fans may have fantasized about a Darth Jar Jar-esque red lightsaber wielding character, this version stays true to Jar Jar's signature clumsy style and humorous voice lines. Jar Jar Binks will be ready to join the fight when Jedi Power Battles launches on January 23rd, but pre-orders are available now.
Newly Revealed Playable Characters:
Aspyr has confirmed a wave of new playable characters beyond Jar Jar Binks, bringing the total to ten, with more to come! This diverse group includes familiar faces like the Staff Tusken Raider and Rodian, as well as various droids such as the Flame Droid, Destroyer Droid, and Rifle Droid. Interestingly, Jar Jar isn't the only Gungan joining the fray, as the Gungan Guard is also playable. The full list so far includes:
With the launch date just weeks away, fans eagerly anticipate experiencing these new additions to Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles. Aspyr's experience with other classic Star Wars game updates, such as Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, bodes well for a nostalgic yet enhanced gaming experience.
