SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Star Wars™: Uprising players have journeyed through an epic storyline across iconic locations including the planets Hoth and Cloud City, and unlocked new character classes, like Bounty Hunter and Diplomats. Now, players will embark on a quest to unlock the power of the Force™, to be among the few elite to earn the galaxy’s ultimate weapon, the Lightsaber™.

As the uprising struggles to break free from the clutches of the evil Empire, strange new allies appear in the Anoat Sector. A mysterious advisor, a pale witch from far away, and a junk dealer who is more than he appears all have secrets to help unlock the power that binds the galaxy together, the Force. Players must seek it out and wield its power to lead the uprising.

Star Wars: Uprising takes place between Star Wars™: Return of the Jedi™ and Star Wars™: The Force Awakens, following the death of Emperor Palpatine. Players band together with smugglers, freedom fighters, bounty hunters and gangsters to rise up against the Empire as it tries to maintain control of the galaxy. They can also create unique characters, go on missions, develop skills, build up their gear, and recruit crewmembers for sector battles, all in an effort to create their own version of a Star Wars hero.
