Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.14/day in the week to Sep 12 → 8/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

My favorite RTS of all time that has enhanced and evolved my love for this game all over again because of the the Modding community
This game has always been my favorite strategy game since childhood. Its probably the only good Star Wars strategy game and its basically 2 games in 1. Not only that, the mods this game has can be considered their very own game aswell like Thrawn's Revenge, Republic at war, etc. The storyline seems to be enjoyable with each faction having their own mechanics and unique units to control. Soundtrack is pretty good, especially the ones in Force of Corruption. Multiplayer for this steam version is still around, so can play with friends or other players if you so choose or stick with Skirmish with the bots.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 8: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Get this game. It needs mods to truly be fun, but Fall of the Republic + 5000 unit cap = so much fun. Being able to rip apart enemies with 25 venators is peak. Gets a little laggy tho.
Это лучшая стратегия во вселенной STAR WARS, насколько помню конкурентов у неё в этом плане вообще нет, только как у стратегии. Игра это симбиоз Total War (это как бы глобальная карта) + Lord of The Rings: Battle for Middle Earth (уже тактическая). Несмотря на данные переменные, это не самый большой плюс игры. Естественно это космические битвы. Я даже не знаю, есть ли они где-либо лучше, может в этом компоненте уже есть варианты новее и масштабнее, однако здесь это сделано по-суперски, особенно для 2006 года. Многие играют в игру только ради космических сражений (!). В космобитвах есть механика прицельного огня по отдельным системам корабля, вроде двигателей или орудийных башен. То есть можно попасть в какой-либо отсек, тем самым отключить вражескому кораблю: маневренность\огневую мощь и так далее. Музыкальное сопровождение тоже безупречно и создаёт нужное настроение с первых секунд боя. Наземные же битвы тоже неплохи, но в сравнение с космическими явно слабее. Задачи тривиальные, однако есть и крайне занимательные карты с особыми условиями. Есть и герои, способности которых могут сильно влиять на результат партии, как космической, так и наземной. Например Оби-Ван может полечить, а Дарт Вейдер разваливает ударной волной. Конечно же все они явно сильнее обычных солдатиков. Да, можно играть за Империю или Повстанцев. Обе кампании интересные и не такие уж и простые. В своё время наиграл кучу часов, прежде чем купить в Steam. Есть куча модов, которые я даже пока не думал пробовать и как всегда они поражают своими размерами и устранением очевидных ошибок разработчиков. Так как это версия Gold Pack, есть уже встроенное DLC. За третью сторону контрабандистов ещё не играл, у них тоже есть отдельная кампания. Игра обязательна для тех, кто любит STAR WARS и тем, кто время от времени играет в стратегии. Чрезвычайно хорошо.
Peak + amazing mods, honestly the best oldhead Star Wars game by a good mile
If you love Star Wars, and you love the RTS genre, this game manages, even now in 2026, to be fun in every way that matters. It is within the modding scene that it elevates to another level entirely, truly. The modders have poured their love into this title and it shows. They have pushed this game to the absolute limits, and it means playing with even the most obscure characters in a galaxy far, far away. For those with a deep love, there is nowhere else that you may find certain eras depicted in gaming at all, and for the satisfaction of that "what if?" urge, every victory can feel like an earned step to a fun reward, every campaign. And for campaigns? Modders have added fun missions that depict major moments across the books and movies, again heightening the original vision into something that leaves dreams manifest in hard-fought battles. I, for one, love certain niche eras, like the early Imperial era. There is no other title that even comes close to trying to depict this in RTS. And modders have my back. Playing as the CIS holdouts, in the submod titled "Dark Times", has been so much fun, that I could not imagine gaming without EaW in my library. Where else can the obscure rogues in Farstar, Gizor Delso, or General Rootrock of the Nosaurians resist the Empire until their dying breath? Death to the Empire, writ in loving lines of code that make this title worth playing for any fan of the franchise. There is a mod out there for you. Try it out!
Juegazo tio lo jugaba con mi primo Manolo en antaño
Hier ist eine tiefgründige, leidenschaftliche und sehr menschliche Rezension für Star Wars: Empire at War. Sie fängt den zeitlosen Charme dieses Meilensteins ein, beleuchtet die unfassbare Arbeit der Community und verzichtet komplett auf Emojis. Die unsterbliche Galaktische Eroberung Wertung: Absolut empfehlenswert Es gibt Spiele, die überdauern Generationen, nicht weil sie die modernste Grafik haben, sondern weil sie eine perfekte spielerische Vision verkörpern. Wenn man bedenkt, dass Star Wars: Empire at War ursprünglich im Jahr 2006 erschienen ist – einer Zeit, in der Echtzeitstrategie noch im klassischen PC-Karton im Laden stand –, grenzt es an ein Wunder, wie lebendig dieses Spiel heute noch ist. Es ist nicht nur gut gealtert; es ist im Grunde der unangefochtene König der Star-Wars-Strategie geblieben. Kein anderes Spiel hat es je wieder geschafft, das Gefühl einer galaxisweiten Kriegsführung so greifbar und befriedigend einzufangen. Die Faszination der zweigeteilten Kriegsführung Das Herzstück des Spiels ist der Modus "Galaktische Eroberung", und er ist bis heute ein Geniestreich. Auf einer riesigen Übersichtskarte verwaltet man Planeten, baut Minen, Kasernen und gigantische Schiffswerften. Man bewegt Flotten von System zu System und spürt das strategische Gewicht jeder Entscheidung. Wenn das Imperium die Kernwelten bedroht, während man als Rebellion verzweifelt versucht, im Outer Rim eine versteckte Operationsbasis aufzubauen, entfaltet das Spiel eine unglaubliche Dynamik. Sobald zwei Fraktionen aufeinandertreffen, schaltet das Spiel in die taktische Echtzeit-Ansicht. Und hier schlägt die große Stunde der Weltraumschlachten. Wenn ein Sternenzerstörer majestätisch aus dem Hyperraum gleitet und man gezielt die einzelnen Hardpoints – also die Schildgeneratoren, Antriebe oder Turbolasergeschütze – ins Visier nimmt, während Dutzende von X-Wings und TIE-Jägern in flammenden Dogfights umeinander kreisen, vergisst man völlig das Alter des Spiels. Die cineastische Kamera fängt diese Momente mit einer Dramatik ein, die selbst modernen Kinofilmen in nichts nachsteht. Die rauen Kanten auf dem Boden Man kann keine ehrliche Rezension über Empire at War schreiben, ohne die Bodenkämpfe zu erwähnen. Sie waren schon damals der schwächere Zwilling der Weltraumschlachten und sind es geblieben. Die Bodenkarte fühlt sich oft linear, hölzern und ein wenig zäh an. Das Prinzip, Verstärkungspunkte zu erobern, um mehr Truppen abzuwerfen, hat zwar seine strategischen Reize, aber die Wegfindung der Einheiten und das schwerfällige Mikromanagement der Infanterie und Fahrzeuge drosseln das ansonsten fantastische Tempo des Spiels. Es ist kein Totalausfall – einen AT-AT im filmischen Kameramodus durch die Linien der Rebellen marschieren zu sehen, hat immer noch Stil –, aber der Kontrast zur Brillanz im Weltall ist spürbar.
this game is old but been wanted to play it for a long time didnt have a pc until now they need to remaster this game and add it to ps5 and xbox
game is so peak bro recommended to anyone who adores strategy games. the space battles are by far the most engaging and enjoyable part of the game. however ofc to have quality and fun in this you gotta use mods like fall of the republic, thrawns revenge etc etc. love the game
