Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game is a role-playing game set in the Star Wars universe, written and published by West End Games (WEG) in 1987.
In 1992 West End Games published the second edition of the game, in which the title remained unchanged. In 1996 a revision of the second edition saw the light of day, but its title was slightly changed from Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game – Second Edition to The Star Wars Roleplaying Game: Second Edition – Revised and Expanded.
By the end of the game's run around 140 sourcebook and adventure supplements were published for the game during its run through three editions.
Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game won the Origins Award for Best Roleplaying Rules of 1987.
