A massive universe with hundreds of stories spread out across thousands of years, this Star Wars Legends timeline attempts to share it all in chronological order.
What’s on the Star Wars Legends Timeline?
This is the continuity of Star Wars Legends timeline, or in other words, the alternate universe of Star Wars material that takes place separate from the film continuity or official canon. All of the previously named expanded universe, together in one timeline. Note: None of this is official Star Wars canon. The films, Clone Wars television show, Rebels, and other canonical material is included on the official canon page.
This timeline includes:
- Older Star Wars Television: Everything from the Ewok Adventures, to the Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars series. Oh and that Holiday Special thing…
- Legends novels: The bulk of all Star Wars novels so far.
- Legends comics: Most of these were published by Dark Horse Comics prior to Disney acquiring Lucasfilm. There are a lot of them, and only comics that have been re-released with the Legends banner on them have a “Buy” link.
- Young Reader Novels: Such as Young Jedi Knights or Jedi Apprentice, there are several series of books for younger readers.
- Video Games: Popular favorites like Knights of the Old Republic or Rogue Squadron are also part of the Legends timeline.
Though Star Wars Legends is not currently part of the active canon, it’s still largely cohesive and offers a huge story set in the Star Wars universe. Since it’s not canon, you could think of it as an alternate universe. As always, if you have questions or comments about this timeline, we recommend you visit our contact page.

‘Darth Plagueis’ should be slotted at 67 BBY – but you’ve got it taking place *after* The Phantom Menace!!
Because I place things based on when it ends, and that one ends after TPM.
Hello there
You had a story called Tales: George R. Binks. What happened? Did you have autocorrect or something?
Does anyone know where I can buy all the legends books as a set?
Episodes I-VI and The Clone Wars ARE canon to Legends, they are not a separate timeline like the Sequel Trilogy. Why have you decided not to include them? They’re integral and happen the way the films and show portrayed. It doesn’t matter if they’re also canon to the new canon
It’s actually a technical issue. I would have to combine the two timelines on the backend. It’s complicated. It’s cleaner this way.
