It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years since Star Wars: The Phantom Menace first hit theaters. If that li’l reminder has you feeling nostalgic (and old), you’ll be happy to know that four games based off the 1999 film are coming to PC and select consoles in a new bundle.

The Star Wars: Prequel Pack features four action-packed Star Wars games. The pack includes Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, Star Wars Republic Commando, and Star Wars Episode I: Racer. The bundle will be available to purchase tomorrow, February 23, on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Perhaps the most notable of these four games is Star Wars Episode I: Racer, which was released on Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, and Game Boy Color back in 1999. The sci-fi racing game allows players to play as Anakin or any one of the game’s 22 Podracers, and travel at speeds of up to 600 mph as they traverse tracks set across eight iconic Star Wars worlds.

In Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles, Lucas Arts combines platforming with beat-’em-up combat in an adventure game that allows players to take on the role of either Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu, Adi Gallia, and Plo Koon. The title loosely follows the events of The Phantom Menace, complete with “short negotiations.”

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter and Star Wars Republic Commando both lean harder into the shooter genre, with Bounty Hunter featuring a third-person perspective while Republic Commando is a traditional first-person shooter. In Bounty Hunter, you play as the notorious Jango Fett, Prime Clone of the Grand Army of the Republic, as you set off on a mission to capture a Dark Jedi. Republic Commando follows RC-1138, also referred to as “Boss”, as he commands his squadmates takes on various missions set during the Clone Wars.

Each of these titles is available to purchase separately, though the Aspyr Media bundle offers a lower price–$55 (Steam) and $65 on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch–for all four games.
