Star Wars Jedi Power Battles & Bounty Hunter Free to Play on Switch

Nintendo Switch Online subscribers are in for a nostalgic treat: Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles and Star Wars: Bounty Hunter are now available as part of a special free Game Trial from April 30 to May 6, 2025.

Both classic titles can be played in full without additional cost, giving players a chance to relive these Star Wars adventures on modern hardware. This offer also includes the ability to carry over save data to the full version, should players choose to purchase the games later.

As an added bonus, participating users will earn 100 Platinum Points via My Nintendo rewards. This is a nice incentive for longtime fans or newcomers wanting to experience the rich lore and gameplay of Star Wars.

Jedi Power Battles originally launched on PlayStation and Dreamcast, while Bounty Hunter recently returned on modern consoles including Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

The timing of this event, right before Star Wars Day (May 4), feels intentional—a perfect way to celebrate the franchise’s legacy while encouraging engagement with its older titles.
