A Star Wars mobile game isn’t entirely exciting or unexpected in itself, but what’s cool about Star Wars: Uprising is that it takes place between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, and if Lucasfilm is sticking to that “everything is canon now” promise, it gives a real window into what happened between the two films in the new continuity.
StarWars.com says Uprising,
will feature key events set in the Anoat Sector, inclusive of Hoth and Cloud City, and will allow players to create characters, go on missions, build their gear and skills, and organize crews and factions to participate in wide-ranging battles. Keeping up with tradition of Star Wars roleplaying games, players will learn hundreds of new abilities and collect classic gear and equipment conducive to creating their own takes on iconic roles: Smuggler, Bounty Hunter, Rebel Guerilla, Diplomat, Gambler, or something new entirely.
You can find more information and pre-register for the game on its website to get involved and vote on in-game bonuses for those who register.
