Star Wars’s sequel trilogyhas gotten its fair share of criticism from fans over the years, and one social media user has come to the defense of the movies, flipping the narrative around one oft-clowned plot point from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes Getting PC Port
04.04.2024 - 00:49 / comingsoon.net
EA announced that the mobile strategy game is getting an official PC port. Originally released on Android and iOS in 2015, the game lets players recruit hundreds of heroes and over 20 ships and control them in turn-based battles.
The upcoming port isn’t just moving Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes to a new operating system. According to EA, it also comes with several PC-exclusive enhancements. “We have been able to double the frame rate to 60 fps,” a spokesperson told Game Informer over email, “added anti-aliasing, and implemented higher resolution settings so that players can take advantage of the power of a high-end PC.” The studio also redesigned the game’s interface to work better with a mouse and keyboard.
EA intends to keep the PC and mobile versions “in lockstep,” releasing updates simultaneously on both platforms. Fans can also switch between mobile and PC by synchronizing their EA account. That means longtime players won’t have to start over just because they want to play on a larger screen. However, there was no mention of a console port, and EA said Galaxy of Heroes will not have controller support at launch.
Galaxy of Heroes’ PC port doesn’t have a release date yet, though EA plans to hold a closed beta in May. This initial beta is only for players who already have the game on mobile, though new users will have opportunities in the future. Registration isn’t open yet, though fans can get ready by linking their game to an EA account. Once registration begins, they can sign up for the closed beta on the game’s website.

Star Wars Outlaws Will Feature Galaxy's Most Infamous Card Game | Push Square
Star Wars Outlaws has been in the headlines recently for some less-than-ideal reasons. Still, one thing we are genuinely looking forward to is the inclusion of Sabacc, the blackjack/poker hybrid popular among rogues like Han Solo and Lando Calrissian. Strangely, despite the rules being first revealed in 1989, its inclusion will mark the first time Sabacc has ever graced a video game.

Star Wars Outlaws Features Playable Sabacc
Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment are promising an expansive open world experience with the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws, which is being billed as the ultimate scoundrel fantasy, and though that will involve a lot of juggling of different criminal syndicates and maintaining your reputation with each different faction, that doesn’t mean you won’t be able to find the time to sit down and, say, play some cards.

Star Wars Outlaws’ City of Mirogana is “Quite Compact”, Focuses on Density Instead
