Legends
- Both Indiana Jones and Short Round get mentions in the first edition rulebook of Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.
- Indiana Jones is an unlockable character in LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga.
- Jones also makes a cameo in Star Wars: Yoda Stories.
- Corellia Antilles, a "xenoarchaeologist" whose forename is a location and has a common surname.
- In Ann C. Crispin's The Han Solo Strilogy both Han Solo and Corran Horn use Jenos Idanian, an anagram of 'Indiana Jones', as an alias.
- Star Wars Galaxy Collector 7 includes a feature called Raiders of the Lost Arcade
- "That's not the years, it's the parsecs." replies Han Solo when told he's changed.
- Dark Nest I: The Joiner King includes Han Solo saying the line "Bugs. Why did it have to be bugs?", causing Solo's phobia to homage Jones' ophidiophobia using an altered version of the line "Snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?" from Raiders of the Lost Ark.
- The non-canon comic Into the Great Unknown features Indiana Jones discovering the remains of Han Solo on Earth.
- LEGO Star Wars: The Quest for R2-D2 features a cameo by Jones.
- LEGO Star Wars: Bombad Bounty depicts Boba Fett trying to cross a Death Star hallway to get to Jar Jar Binks. However, he is stopped by three things: Han Solo chasing a small group of stormtroopers, several more stormtroopers chasing Han Solo, and Indiana Jones running from a boulder. Fett gets run over by the boulder, as he attempts to cross the hallway after Jones has passed through. Additionally, Mola Ram is a patron of the Mos Eisley cantina and Darth Vader sees LEGO Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Brick on his hospital TV before changing the channel.
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes features an unlockable fedora called "Indy's hat".
- The Emperor in Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II encourages one of his royal guard to use their "Staff of Ra" in fixing an overhead vent.
- LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars: There are three references to Indiana Jones in this game. In the level "The Hidden Enemy", the player must stand on two buttons to reveal Indiana Jones and Henry Jones Sr. tied to a chair behind a bookshelf to collect a special object - a homage to the Castle Brunwald scene in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. The second reference is in the level "Ambush". To obtain another special collectible, the player must enter a room similar to the Well of Souls, and find the object inside the Ark of the Covenant by activating it - a reference to Raiders of the Lost Ark. Also, in the bonus mission "Hostage Crisis", the player must activate a screen, and make his/her character jump to make the Indiana Jones on the screen jump as well to complete a small minigame - a strong similarity to the Xbox 360 Kinect and another homage to Indiana Jones.
- Star Wars Galactic Spy: Indiana Jones flees the boulder as part of the Mos Eisley Parade. He appears again facing the Arab Swordsman in the Departure Lounge and fending off two Thuggee at the Imperial Base. The Chachapoyan Fertility Idol sits among the items at Watto's junk shop while the Capuchin monkey appears at the Mos Eisley Cantina looking for dates, and the Crystal Skull of Akator can also be found there. Jock Lindsey's plane, the OB-CPO, can be located at the Imperial Base as can the heiroglyphics of R2-D2 and C-3PO from the Well of the Souls.
- LEGO Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out: When Luke Skywalker and R2-D2 escape from Luke's fangirls on Naboo, Luke orders Artoo to activate his X-wing starfighter so they can escape fastly in a similar way to how Indiana Jones orders Jock Lindsey to start the OB-CPO to escape from the Hovitos in the opening sequence of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

- At Celebration Orlando in 2017, in reference to his mishaps in planes, Ford quoted Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade with "Fly? Yes. Land? No".
