STAR WARS™: Rogue Squadron 3D largely takes place between the dramatic events of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. After the destruction of the Death Star, the Council was still under constant threat from an angry and reunited Galactic Empire. To counter this imminent threat, Luke Skywalker and legendary pilot Wedge Antilles assembled a group of twelve highly skilled pilots: The Rogue Army. As Luke Skywalker, you lead this motley crew in dangerous ground-to-sky battles and monster wars. Unlike other titles that rely solely on the lush environment, Rogue Squadron 3D brings the combat down to earth.

Travel through the bustling city of Corellia, sail the vast oceans of Mon Calamari, and dive into the dark tunnels of Tatooine. The story is told by an organized, high-level military unit. Your objectives change from standard search-and-destroy missions to challenging overland rescue and escort missions. With the augmented reality audio system, a flying cockpit concept, and an incredibly smooth interplay, the game makes you feel like a participant in the Galactic War, rather than just a passive spectator.
