From a galaxy far, far away from our mobile devices. That brings us the folks at Electronic Arts with the launch of Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes. The strategy RPG is free to download and is available for Android and iOS devices.
Star Wars was born in the late seventies and is one of the most popular and famous movies across a large number of fans of different ages. Young and old alike enjoy the adventures of Skywalkers and their friends. The stories of Darth Vader and the spaceships have spawned many games on this topic. In the Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes installment you will have the ability to fulfill your dreams and try to become the master of the galaxy. Your mission will be to choose a team and fight against magnificent enemies at different levels. By defeating your opponents you will get points and rewards to get more heroes and improve their fighting skills. Collecting the figures of the famous saga created by George Lucas will be your main entertainment. But beware, although the delivery can be played for free, to get the most popular characters you will probably have to spend some money.
However, one piece of advice to keep in mind for this free app developed by Electronic Arts is that the real goal is to build a really strong lineup rather than a wide diverse group of characters. When you start playing, you will have limited resources, so when you have a new character, you need to prepare it first. Second, always try to update Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes as there will be a lot of new content both daily, weekly and monthly. The new material will bring you new missions with important rewards. Lastly, train, train and train. All characters have attacks and abilities that you will see in the game if you improve them and take them to higher levels.
If you want to know how to play Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes you will not have many problems, since we are facing a mechanic that has been widely used in most of the games and applications of recent times for mobile phones. It is a role-playing and strategy title in which you must carry out turn-based attacks against various enemies. The settings unfold on the franchise's most iconic maps that tell the story of the Jedi battling the dark side of the force. You can have action in places like Tatooine, Endor, Hoth, Coruscant or Bespin. Also, one of the great advantages of Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes is that the developers have not left out almost any character in history. This means that you will have the opportunity to form your team with figures that appeared in the original films, the new ones, the comics, the series or any of the previous video games. All your formations will have a captain and it is very important who you choose, as well as in what order you arrange the rest of the characters.
The gameplay of Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes can be a bit dated and the menus a bit confusing. There are a lot of options and elements to add to our characters. The section that refers to the audiovisual has high and low points. Graphics are fair, not bad but they won't surprise you either. And, as it is a characteristic mark of the saga, the musical references to the monumental work of John Williams are the best you will find in the Electronic Arts application.
Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes is a proposal that the most fans of the original story created by George Lucas will probably enjoy. Regarding the proposal as a particular game, it does not contribute anything new and it may seem like something regular for those outside the franchise. However, if you are one of those who vibrate when listening to the first notes of John Williams' music or the noise of the Jedi's lightsabers when starting a battle, playing Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes will guarantee you hours of fun. You will have the opportunity to become your favorite characters and fight strategically in the most emblematic corners of a galaxy far, far away.
One of the most important series in the franchise, The Mandalorian, comes to Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes. You can now play with some of their characters, such as Karga and Dune.
