Star Wars: Uprising now available on Android, fills in gap between Return of the Jedi and Force Awakens
Fans of Star Wars and those looking to fill in the gap between Return of the Jedi and Force Awakens have a good way to kill some time before the movie’s big release. Kabam and Disney Interactive/Lucasfilm are teaming up to launch Star Wars: Uprising for mobile devices, available right now on Android and iOS. Here’s the basic rundown according the the game’s Play Store listing:
- Create the Hero the Galaxy Needs: Choose from a wide range of special skills, species, visual customizations and classic Star Wars gear to become the next Han Solo, Boba Fett or unique hero of your own design.
- Shape the Future of the Game Universe: Join players worldwide in massive sector-wide battles to dictate the expansion of in-game content, including new planets, exclusive gear and unique crew members.
- Real-Time Co-op Against the Empire: Explore the secrets of the sector, build a powerful crew with allies, and play alongside friends in synchronous cooperative play.
- Brave Challenges on Classic and New Worlds: Battle your way through missions on Hoth, Cloud City and more, fighting against powerful bosses led by an ominous new adversary.
The game is free to download and like others, allows users to shell out real money for in-game items and whatnot. If you look at the Play Store listing, it looks like the game isn’t working for every Android device, so don’t get too excited until after you’ve successfully fired it up. For those that are lucky enough to run it on their Android devices, you’ll be shooting, hacking, and slashing your way to Star Wars gaming bliss this weekend. Have fun.
