With The Walt Disney Company’s acquisition of Lucasfilm and the rights to all Star Wars IP a few years ago, the company has showed no signs of slowing down on extending its reach for the popular franchise in the world of interactive entertainment. Disney has famously given Electronic Arts some creative license, which they have used so far to make the last two Battlefront titles, and Disney has published several Star Wars mobile games so far. Now, they have announced a new mobile arena shooter game titled Star Wars Rivals that will let players bring the action on the go.

Disney has announced Star Wars Rivals on the official Star Wars website, where the listing gives off many details about the game. The gameplay involves real-time competitive cover-based PvP shooting action built specifically for mobile devices. Players will be able to control their favorite heroes and villains from across the Star Wars saga to recreate classic rivalries, such as Luke Skywalker vs. Darth Vader, Jyn Erso vs. Director Krennic, Finn vs. Captain Phasma and more. Other famous heroes and villains, such as Poe Dameron, Princess Leia and Lando Calrissian will also be playable. Here are more of the listed key features:

BUILD THE ULTIMATE COMBAT TEAM
