- ↑ Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 5 ends with Darth Vader imprisoning Vaneé, and as shown in Star Wars Adventures: Shadow of Vader's Castle, he doesn't get released until after the end of the Galactic Civil War. As he appears in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places in 0 BBY, Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle must take place some time after 0 BBY. As Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle features Darth Vader, who dies in 4 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, then this series must take place some time between 0 BBY and 4 ABY.
- ↑ The events of Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 3 take place between Asajj Ventress becoming a bounty hunter after the events of "Massacre" and losing her red lightsabers in "The Wrong Jedi." Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of those episodes to 20 and 19 BBY respectively, meaning Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 3 must take place between those two years.
