Summary
- Starfield players have been recreating famous Star Wars vehicles, including the Ebon Hawk from Knights of the Old Republic in the game's universe.
- A Starfield player shared images of their custom Ebon Hawk ship in Starfield, and even created a tutorial video on its creation.
There have been plenty of Star Wars vehicles being recreated in Starfield, and now one player is cruising the universe in the Ebon Hawk from Knights of the Old Republic. Bethesda’s space-age RPG launched earlier this month, bringing with it a vast assortment of planets and the ability to fully customize the pilots and ships exploring them. As to be expected, many players have used popular movies, TV shows, and other video games for inspiration, modeling their homemade spacecraft after famous vessels like Star Fox’s Arwing or the infamous Borg Cube of Star Trek fame.
Star Wars is yet another beloved sci-fi property that fits Starfield’s aesthetic, and players have recreated several famous ships from the galaxy far, far, away to tour the cosmos. This started with heroic vessels like Han Solo’s Millennium Falcon and Luke Skywalker’s X-Wing starfighter before moving on to more antagonistic vehicles like Boba Fett’s Firespray-31 spaceship and Darth Maul’s dreaded Scimitar. Star Wars’ line of legendary spacecraft stretches beyond the franchise’s many films and TV shows, and now a fan has built a ship from one of the most acclaimed Star Wars video games of all time.
Reddit user Scary_Xenomorph posted images of their own custom Starfield craft to r/Starfield: a near-perfect replication of the Ebon Hawk from Knights of the Old Republic. Other users have asked them for a tutorial on how they painstakingly recreated the Hawk’s trident-like design, and they have since obliged with a quick YouTube video showing how they put it together. Scary_Xenomorph went on to say that they always wanted a video game where they could just fly around the galaxy in the Ebon Hawk, and Starfield gave them the chance to do exactly that.
Star Wars fans were first introduced to the Ebon Hawk in the original Knights of the Old Republic, where the Dynamic-class freighter served as the primary vessel for the game’s heroes as they searched for the legendary Star Forge. KOTOR is hailed by many as one of the greatest Star Wars games ever made, and elements from it have been slowly creeping into Disney’s official canon over the past few years. A full-blown remake of KOTOR was announced back in 2021, but development issues seem to have put the project in limbo for the time being.
At least fans like Scary_Xenomorph can relive the thrill of blasting off in the Ebon Hawk in Starfield, as the game’s ship-building mechanics have allowed for a wide range of famous Star Wars vehicles to be brought into Bethesda’s new universe. Star Wars’ design aesthetics seem to blend well with Starfield, as evidenced by the sheer number of spacecraft faithfully recreated by players - including the fabled Ebon Hawk from Knights of the Old Republic.
Starfield is available on PC and Xbox Series X.
