(CNN) -- May the "Fourth" be with you!

It's "Star Wars Day," celebrated around the world by fans of the films.

While you might bump into a random Wookiee or Storm Trooper today, you're more likely to see fans observing the Jedi holiday online.

The official Star Wars website has a number of games, videos and fan gear for sale in honor of the day.

Star Wars Day is held today because "May the Fourth" sounds a lot like the films' catch phrase, "May the Force be with you."
