Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes

"We have a great partnership with the talented folks at Lucasfilm and Disney Interactive. It is that collaboration that has enabled us to deliver a unique mobile experience that brings the vastness of the epic Star Wars franchise into the palm of your hand..."

- John Salera, Executive Producer at EA Capital Games

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is a mobile game by Electronic Arts released on November 24, 2015. The game was first announced on June 15, 2015 in EA's press conference during the 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo.

The game allows players to collect characters from the prequel trilogy, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, the original trilogy, and Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, and put those characters into battle. Due to the nature of the game, it is not considered to be canon.

The game also features cameos from the Legends characters like HK-47, and the Jedi Consular, Guardian and Sentinel. However, due to the non-canonical nature of the game, this does not canonize the character in the current story acknowledged by Lucasfilm.

Game tutorial
The game's tutorial starts you off with the Cantina's bartender speaking to you about Holotables. A hutt appears, and it seems the Hutt is good at the Holotables.

When redeeming your first data cards you get a Clone Sergeant - Phase 1 and a Jedi Consular. You are spawned into battle on Kashyyyk, while on this level you fight B1 Droids and one B2 Droid.

After that point the game lets you pick what you want to do next and the tutorial is ended.

Light and Dark Side Battles
