Star Wars: The Definitive Chronological Order of the New Canon

In 2014, the Star Wars Expanded Universe was decanonized, paving the way for an entirely new generation of stories.

Eight years later, and the new Star Wars canon now contains hundreds of films, TV episodes, comics, novels, short stories, and more, quickly rebuilding one of the most expansive storytelling universes of all time.

In this post, I’ll be listing every piece of canon material so far in chronological order. I’ll try my best to return to it as often as possible to continue to keep it updated.

But first, a few caveats:

The Old Republic era is not considered hard canon at the moment, despite the ongoing storyline in the game, so none of those stories are included here.
Some of these entries span long or multiple periods of time, and thus, can’t be neatly placed into the chronology. For these, I’ve placed them into the order based on when I’d consider their “core” storyline takes place, and tried to note where the rest of it fits in.
And finally, it should probably go without saying, but there’s no shortage of spoilers below.

[Update] Updated the High Republic section with the currently released stories.
