With the upcoming STAR WARS: ACOLYTE series coming out and taking the Star Wars universe into a darker realm, we have to know, where are the horror related Star Wars games?

Now what we have below is NOT an official game from Star Wars but developer Stefano Cagnani has given us a taste of what could be a cool idea for Star Wars in the horror sense with Star Wars: Deathtroopers, which sees you battling waves of zombie Stormtroopers.

Available on itch.io and powered by Unreal Engine 5, Star Wars: Deathtroopers is an episodic game that casts you as a lone Stormtrooper, with you having to shoot your way through your now-zombified comrades. The first episode takes place in a Star Destroyer, whereas the second episode is on Endor. In the latter, you end up crashing into Endor, where you’ll find no refuge from the zombie virus, which has already spread throughout much of the Outer Rim of the known galaxy.

Knowing Disney, they don’t care for people using copyrighted material and who knows how long Star Wars: Deathtroopers will stay up, so you’ll have to grab it quick. However, it does give a glimpse into just how Star Wars could dip its toe into horror, which would be a welcome sight.

Thanks to DSOGaming for spotting this.
