May the 4th has been commonly referred to as Star Wars Day, since it is so related to "May the Force Be With You".  Yes, it is a stretch, but Star Wars is such a phenomenon that it makes sense to have a holiday that is related to it.  These are things that are happening on Star Wars Day, and most of them are related to Star Wars related video games such as Star Wars Battlefront as well as Knights of the Old Republic.  However, Star Wars fans should begin their quest for Star Wars deals now, as it seems that everybody is celebrating May the 4th, including Lego. 

According to Game Informer, EA is celebrating Star Wars Day on its popular game Star Wars Battlefront.  Players that log in on May 4 (Wednesday) will receive 4,444 credits to spend on Star Wars Cards as well as blasters.  There will also be a new Hutt Contract, and anyone that spends 3,500 and 8,000, as well as completing bounties will receive a Bacta Bomb Star Card that can heal allies.

By the way, there will be a free four-hour trial available of Star Wars Battlefront on PC for Origin subscribers.  CinemaBlend says that it doesn't sound like you aren't limited to when, on May 4, you can play, so you shouldn't worry if you can't sit in front of the computer for 4 hours straight.  The trial does last from 11 AM PST to presumably the end of the day. 

Those who play The Knights of the Old Republic can log in between now and May 4 to receive a free M4-16 droid pet.  There will also be legacy XP and double XP, double PVP commendations, as well as double requisitions in Starfighter mode awarded from May 3 through May 10.  It is also possible to play the first Knights of the Fallen Empire chapter through May 30. 

For those that play Star Wars on the mobile front, EA is going to have Double drop events in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes and discounts on currency bundles.  Konami's Star Wars mobile game, Force collection, is giving away a 5-Star R2-D2 card, and adding Rey and Kylo Ren cards, and a special Star Wars Day card pack for purchase. 

Another place that is celebrating Star Wars Day is Disneyland, according to Inside the Magic.  Of course, it is difficult for everyone reading this to get down to the happiest place on earth, but it is possible to save on Star Wars items available online with Lego. 

If you head to the Lego store, you can find some exclusive offers like a free Exclusive First Order Stormtrooper with a Lego Star Wars purchase of $50 or more.  It is also possible to get double VIP points on all Lego Star Wars products, and there is a free The Force Awakens poster with any Lego Star Wars purchase. 

The Lego Store adds "don't forget to come dressed as your favorite Star Wars character", which means that many stores around the nation are celebrating Star Wars day, and it is worth looking into any comic book shop or other collectable store to see if there are events locally that Star Wars fans can participate in.
