Star Wars The Battle of Endor is a freeware PC game developed by independent (and casual) game developer Bruni R Marcos. The game is a 3D space shooter/combat simulation game that is set during the events of Episode VI, Return of the Jedi which was the third movie released in the Star Wars saga. Released in 2003, the game is the follow up to another Star Wars based game developed by Marcos titled The Battle of Yavin. Both games have similar look/feel and the game play is also very similar.

In The Battle of Endor, players will pilot an X-Wing fighter for the Rebel Alliance. During the game, you will encounter and fight against various Empire fighters and spacecraft including Tie fighters, Star Destroyers, and Super Star Destroyers.

The storyline, set during the events of Return of the Jedi, will have players fighting in the battle for Endor and against the second Death Star and which is partially under construction, but also operational. The ultimate goal is to find and defeat Darth Vadar's Super Star Destroyer called the Executor. The game includes battles across six stages pitting players against hundreds of enemy TIE fighters and other ships.

Availability of Star Wars The Battle of Endor

Star Wars The Battle of Endor is hosted on Marcos' personal website. There are also a number of third-party/independent websites that host the free game download. The legality of the game can be called into question. It is not known if the developer received proper permission to use the images of the ships from Star Wars universe such as the X-Wing or TIE Fighter or permission for the use of the title.

That being said the game has been around for over ten years so the likelihood of gaming going away due the use of the name and likeness is unlikely. The below download links for Star Wars The Battle of Endor are confirmed to be working. In addition to The Battle for Endor, there are a few mods available that have converted the game to the Star Trek universe. Star Trek The Invasion of Cardassia Deep Space Nine is built off of the same game engine.
