Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes channels the Millennium Falcon’s holotable in a mobile game

Remember when RD-D2 let the Wookie win? Remember the holotable they were playing on? Someone is making a game designed around that.

To be specific, EA is using the idea of a cantina full of holotables to allow players to fight in turn-based battles with a collection of their favorite Star Wars characters from the movies and the cartoon Star Wars: Rebels. Since the holotable conceit excuses the battles from canon, you can have Darth Maul fighting alongside Han Solo. The game is called Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, and it’s a free-to-play mobile game coming to iOS and Android coming later this holiday season.
