Stern Pinball is taking gaming to a galaxy far, far away. The arcade company is launching a trilogy of Star Wars pinball cabinets, and they’re a Force to be reckoned with.

In Star Wars: Fall of the Empire, players will journey through iconic moments and locations from throughout the original saga on their way to defeat the Empire, the film’s score singing in the background. Between toppling AT-ATs and battling TIE Fighters, C-3PO will shout custom call-outs, voiced by actor Chris Bartlett. With detailed artwork and new modes to unlock, this machine is an impressive, most impressive addition to your home arcade.

Throughout the game, players can enter Jabba the Hutt’s Sarlacc Pit, escape from Cloud City in the Millennium Falcon, and even use the Force to save their ball from the drain. The system also includes several Darth Vader-inspired game modes, including the epic Death Star Multiball, which takes players on a mission to destroy the Death Star II by lowering specific shields. 

The game is also a part of Stern’s Insider Connected system, which connects players around the world to track progress, unlock achievements, and complete challenges.

Star Wars: Fall of the Empire will be available in three models: Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition. Inspired by the saga’s 1977 release, only 770 Limited Edition cabinets will be available worldwide, each with an integrated lighting system synchronized to specific songs and scores. The kit also includes exclusive armor, an upgraded audio system, mirrored backglass artwork, a shaker motor, a numbered plaque, and other galactic goodies. 

Whether you’re an arcade aficionado or a pinball padawan, this cabinet is one for the millennium. Visit Stern Pinball’s website to learn more and add this kit to your home arcade.
