Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes

Game Overview

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is Electronic Arts' free turn-based role-playing game built around collecting, upgrading, and battling with characters and ships from across Star Wars history. The official description names Luke Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Darth Vader, Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, The Mandalorian, and others, while also referencing The Mandalorian, The Bad Batch, and The Last Jedi. The visual style is cinematic 3D mobile RPG presentation, with holotable-style battles, character abilities, starship combat, squad menus, and recognizable franchise iconography. Sessions can be short for individual battles, but roster building, gear upgrades, PvE, PvP, guild activity, raids, and Territory Battles make it a long-term collection game. Its core appeal is strategic team assembly: the strongest moments come from matching factions, abilities, ships, and counters rather than controlling real-time action.

Core Gameplay Features

• Turn-Based Combat Squads fight through tactical turns, using upgraded gear, abilities, counters, reinforcements, and team composition to handle PvE and PvP encounters.
• Hero Collection Players unlock and upgrade Jedi, Sith, bounty hunters, heroes, and villains from across Star Wars history.
• Fleet Battles Iconic ships such as the Millennium Falcon appear in tactical starship battles, with recruited heroes piloting fleets and unlocking ship abilities.
• Guild Warfare Guilds support raids, Territory Battles, Territory Wars, and other cooperative or competitive goals beyond solo squad progression.
• Arena Competition Squad Arena, Fleet Arena, Galactic Challenges, and the Coliseum provide ranked or rotating competitive goals with rewards and materials.

What Makes It Stand Out

Galaxy of Heroes stands out by turning a large license into a dense tactical roster. The game is at its best when favorite characters also serve clear strategic purposes within squads, fleets, guild plans, and counters.

• Franchise Breadth The roster spans heroes, villains, bounty hunters, Jedi, Sith, starships, and stories from multiple Star Wars eras.
• Squad Synergy The official description emphasizes elite squads, gear, abilities, counters, and tactical combat rather than simple character ownership.
• Long-Term Goals Guild raids, fleet progression, leaderboards, and upgrade materials give players many parallel goals to pursue over time.

Things to Know Before Playing

This is a free licensed RPG with a mature collection economy. The strategic layer is real, but progress is closely tied to upgrades, currencies, random item systems, guild schedules, and online services.

• Virtual Currency The listing says optional virtual currency can acquire in-game items, including random selections, so purchase controls are important.
• Internet Required The official description states that an internet connection is required, and EA may retire online features after notice.
• Online Chat The app allows in-game chat, with settings available to disable it, making parental review useful for younger players.
