Video Game Crossovers and Spin-Offs You Had No Idea Were Canon
Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi
I know what you’re thinking: How could a cheap, cash-in fighting game like Masters of Teras Kasi be considered canon in the Star Wars universe?
It’s a fair assumption too, seeing as how this game was generally forgotten by most as the years went on, and other game studios had far greater success than developer LucasArts in creating tie-in titles for the franchise. And yet, by some strange miracle, this game actually has some semblance of canon within the wider range of Star Wars mythos.
In the most recent Star Wars film, Solo: A Star Wars Story, one of its characters reference their skills in Teras Kasi, the supposed martial art used by the characters in the game to knock the living snot out of each other. Though it may not be a screen text crawl of justification for its existence, it does show that the practice exists within the universe and that, unlike the many other titles, themes or characters that could have been chosen to make an appearance, this was seen as passing enough muster to become a tangible concept.
