Hacks To Become a Better ‘Star Wars’ First-Person Shooter Player
Capitalizing on successful IPs, including films and television series, is no stranger to video game developers. In particular, Star Wars has a long-running tradition of tie-in video games thanks to Lucasfilm Games – its glory days were achieved in the early 00s with the release of The Knights of the Old Republic (a remake is coming to Play Station soon), though they keep churning out enjoyable products to this day (most recently, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga broke a lot of sales records).
Cheats
Inside this roster of Star Wars video games, there are plenty of First-Person shooter (FPS) games set in a galaxy far, far away — from Republic Commando to Battlefront. They are highly addictive, which might make being stuck at a certain point of the game all the more frustrating. Fans who are more interested in moving on than they are committed to overcoming the game’s difficulties may lean towards using some cheats. There are cheats available for 13 different Star Wars games, whether you’re playing on PC, handheld, Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo.
For example, for Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, you can find 25 codes for PC you can enter during gameplay (after pressing the Backspace key). They will grant you extra powers, raise or lower the game difficulty level, or slow down the action to give you extra time.
Tips and Tricks
Sometimes strategy and skills are just as important as cheats or hacks. Luckily, information about strategy and skills is also easy to find – you can find FPS Champion articles on topics ranging from news to reviews, to player guides. Many of these articles have been written by expert gamers.
Skills
In the Star Wars FPS, the running double jump is an essential tool to grab hold of overhead vines or ropes, or jump onto pillars or platforms. It is highly recommended to practice the running double jump technique whenever you can catch a breath while playing.
When it comes to weaponry, work on your saber skills. When your regular weapons just won’t cut it, you’ll need to use your saber for overhead moves, twirling moves, and jump and slash moves. Don’t just wait for the vital moment: practice these moves so that when you need them, you can use them like a pro.
Different characters in the game have different hopping and rolling moves in their repertoire. Queen Amidala and Captain Panaka can hop from one side to the other, while Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan can roll left or right – these are handy techniques for dodging blaster fire or attacking enemy groups.
Best Practice Tips
At times, your gameplay will slow down during battles at the worst possible moment. When this happens, try turning off some performance options, or at least setting them to low. While the quality of the visuals may decrease, it might be worth it when the gameplay speeds up again.
Another useful tip, outside of specific moves, is saving your game frequently, especially during strategic points in the level. Always save before and after attempting to fight evil monsters, and keep in mind that you might need to die several times before you are able to master your strategy for getting through a certain area. It will be very helpful if you can load several different previous games where you had different resources at hand.

Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as movies from Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
