In-universe dates are traditionally defined relative to the Battle of Yavin, the famous assault on the Death Star that brings A New Hope to a spectacular close. We've used A New Hope as an anchor point in the timeline, which tends to be how the timeline is measured officially in the fictional universe. You'll find every live-action Star Wars movie to date in the list below – all nine Episodes of the Skywalker Saga, as well as Solo: A Star Wars Story and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
And when you add the standalone Solo: A Star Wars Story and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story into the list, A New Hope actually becomes the sixth movie in the overall chronology – in other words, it's clear that navigating the timeline ain't like dusting crops. Meanwhile, the fourth movie to hit cinemas (The Phantom Menace) comes first in chronological order. These days, the first Star Wars movie ever released (A New Hope) is actually the fourth movie in the Skywalker Saga. (The Skywalker Saga is the term Lucasfilm uses to describe Episodes I-IX, in which Anakin Skywalker and his descendants have a surprising amount of influence over the fate galaxy.)
Then the Prequel Trilogy made things more complicated, by going back in time to tell the story of Anakin Skywalker before he turned to the Dark Side and became Darth Vader.
