Star Wars: Starfighter is an action game, developed and published by LucasArts for PlayStation 2 and first released in early 2001. It is often characterized as a space flight simulator due to its focus on flying.

Star Wars: Starfighter: Special Edition was released for Xbox in North America on November 15, 2001, with enhanced graphics, improved multiplayer and several other upgrades. The Xbox port and early 2002 Windows port were both performed by Secret Level.

An arcade version was released on the TsuMo motion-base platform of Tsunami Visual Technologies in the third quarter of 2003.

The Windows port became unplayable on contemporary PCs about two years after its release, as the latest Microsoft software made the game run extremely slowly. LucasArts re-released the game with a fixed engine on the Steam content distribution platform on July 8, 2009.

The game was released for PlayStation 3 via the PlayStation Store in North America in 2015.

The sequel Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter was released for PlayStation 2 and Xbox in 2002.
