When Star Wars movies and TV shows come to an end, fans often turn to the written word for more stories from a galaxy far, far away. The Star Wars books have always been a popular way for fans to dive deeper into the universe, and this year’s San Diego Comic-Con brought even more exciting announcements for book lovers.
One of the most anticipated releases is the Star Wars: The Acolyte Visual Guide by Pablo Hidalgo, set to be released on March 4, 2025. This guide will explore the new characters, creatures, and technology introduced in the series. Fans can also look forward to The Art of Star Wars: The Acolyte (Season One) by Kristin Baver, which will delve into the designs and details of the series and is expected to be released next summer.
For fans of Jecki and Yord, Tessa Gratton is working on an untitled YA novel about their adventures, scheduled to be released on July 29, 2025. Justina Ireland is also set to release a new novel called Star Wars: The Acolyte: Wayseeker, which will explore the past of Vernestra Rwoh and Master Indara. Additionally, Cavan Scott will be releasing a new comic, Star Wars: The Acolyte – Kelnacca #1, focusing on another Jedi Master.
In addition to the Acolyte series, there are also new releases set in the High Republic time period. Cavan Scott’s Star Wars: The High Republic – Fear of the Jedi comic, with art by Marika Cresta, will continue the Jedi’s battle against the Nihil and is set to be released in February. A second volume of The Art of Star Wars: The High Republic covering phases two and three of the saga is also expected to be released in February.
For fans eagerly awaiting the next major Star Wars story, Star Wars Outlaws, a video game set to be released in August, will offer a new adventure in the Star Wars universe. And of course, there will be an accompanying art book, The Art of Star Wars Outlaws, set to be released on June 3.
While there may be some time before we see a new Star Wars show or movie, the galaxy continues to thrive in print with these exciting new releases. Whether you’re a fan of the Acolyte series or the High Republic era, there’s something for every Star Wars enthusiast to look forward to. Keep an eye out for pre-order dates and release schedules to ensure you don’t miss out on the latest additions to the Star Wars universe.
