Official Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes Kit Reveal image featuring 4-LOM with his blaster.

The galaxy’s most logical hunter is back in action. EA Capital Games has officially revealed the full kit for 4-LOM, the calculating droid bounty hunter best known from The Empire Strikes Back. Once a protocol droid, 4-LOM has turned his talents toward more profitable (and deadly) pursuits — and his new Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes kit reflects that perfectly. With a toolkit built around debuffs, synergies, and a brand-new mechanic called Corrupted Translation, 4-LOM brings fresh strategy and control options to Dark Side Bounty Hunter teams. 4-LOM Overview This cold and calculating killer is more than just another Bounty Hunter. His skills combine the analytical precision of a droid with the tactical aggression of a true mercenary. Key Attributes Inspiration The developers describe 4-LOM as the “dark mirror” of C-3PO, blending protocol-level logic with deadly intent.

Star Wars: Beyond Victory Review – The Force Meets Mixed Reality (Sort Of)

A Star Wars: Beyond Victory review banner showing a man wearing a VR headset while holographic podracers race across a tabletop in a dimly lit living room.

There’s something timeless about podracing. The thunder of twin engines, the screech of a too-sharp turn, the danger that makes it all so intoxicating — Star Wars: Beyond Victory taps into that legacy and brings it right into your living room. Designed exclusively for Meta Quest 3, this new mixed reality (MR) title aims to make you feel like the Force is racing across your coffee table. The result? A visually stunning experiment that’s part Anakin’s workshop, part Lego set brought to life, and part “wait, why is my podracer in the fruit bowl?” It’s a game that swings for the stars — even when it doesn’t always hit hyperdrive speed. A Galaxy Built Around You From the first moment Beyond Victory boots up, you’ll realize this isn’t your typical VR adventure.

The Lost Star Wars: Hunters “Charr” Behind-the-Scenes Video Has Been Found!

Star Wars Hunters Behind the Scenes title card from the Charr development video.

Every once in a while, the galaxy gives us a miracle — and this one’s for Star Wars gaming fans. After scouring the depths of the internet for days, the lost behind-the-scenes video for Charr, the fiery Trandoshan bounty hunter from Star Wars: Hunters, has finally resurfaced. For a while, it seemed like the video might have become lost media forever. Every link led to the same now-deleted YouTube upload from the game’s official channel, and with the Hunters promotional content purge, it looked like it was gone for good. But thanks to one persistent fan (and a bit of luck), the full video has been recovered through an archived clip posted on X (Twitter). And now, it’s here—saved and preserved for the community to enjoy once more. A Rare Look Inside the Development of Charr What makes this rediscovery so special is that Charr is the only character from…

Director Jose Perez III Gives Us a Tour of Star Wars: Beyond Victory

In a recent interview with ILM, Star Wars: Beyond Victory director Jose Perez III pulled back the curtain on the game’s creative journey, design choices, and what it’s like balancing legacy lore with fresh experimentation. If you’ve been curious how a mixed reality (MR) Star Wars experience comes to life, this is your behind-the-scenes pass. What Beyond Victory Really Is Perez begins by framing Beyond Victory not as a single-mode title, but a playset with three distinct ways to play: He described this layered structure as something that mirrors how fans engage with Star Wars: watching the story, playing the game, and rearranging toys on the floor as kids. Beyond Victory aims to be all three, in one MR package. Perez’s Role: More Than Just “Director” Being the credited director doesn’t mean just calling cuts. For Perez, it meant: He describes that process as deeply iterative — honesty, critique, and…

Grakkus the Hutt’s Lightsaber Collection Has a Secret Star Wars Connection

Close-up of Grakkus the Hutt wearing a necklace made of Lightsaber hilts in Star Wars Beyond Victory.

Star Wars fans love a good deep-cut detail, and the team behind Star Wars: Beyond Victory has delivered a gem worthy of a Hutt’s treasure hoard. If you’ve seen Grakkus the Hutt’s new look in Beyond Victory, you probably noticed the string of Lightsaber hilts draped around his neck — a bold fashion statement even by galactic crime lord standards. But here’s the kicker: those hilts aren’t just random trinkets. They’re actually crafted from Lightsaber parts seen in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. A Collector With Taste (and Terrifying Strength) Grakkus has always been the galaxy’s most dangerous collector of Jedi relics. In Beyond Victory, he’s gone full power-trip mode — literally wearing his trophies as jewelry.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars – Republic Heroes Turns 15 – A Nostalgic Blast from the Prequel Era

Star Wars: The Clone Wars – Republic Heroes Turns 15!

Fifteen years ago, in October 2009, Star Wars: The Clone Wars – Republic Heroes hit consoles and PCs, bringing the animated series’ energy straight into our hands. Developed by Krome Studios and published by LucasArts, it was one of those rare titles that let fans play as both Jedi and clone troopers — back when couch co-op was king and the prequel trilogy was just starting to get the love it deserved. When Star Wars Gaming Was Simpler (and Clunkier) Back in 2009, Republic Heroes wasn’t about photorealistic graphics or deep RPG progression. It was about fun, teamwork, and flinging droids off cliffs with your Jedi buddy while quoting Obi-Wan. The game followed the familiar rhythm of The Clone Wars animated series, blending over-the-top lightsaber action with Saturday-morning-cartoon energy. Players could jump between Jedi like Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, and Obi-Wan Kenobi, or step into the blaster-packed boots of clone…

Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes B-Wing starfighter kit reveal with Home One Rebel fleet synergy.

The Rebel fleet just got a major upgrade. In the latest Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes kit reveal, the long-awaited B-Wing starfighter has officially joined the game. Fans of Return of the Jedi, Star Wars Rebels, and even Skeleton Crew will instantly recognize the ship’s heavy-hitting design and devastating firepower. The B-Wing isn’t just another addition—it’s a carefully crafted piece of synergy that transforms Admiral Ackbar’s Home One fleet into a far more formidable opponent. For Rebel pilots across the Holotables, this is the reinforcement they’ve been waiting for. TL;DR – B-Wing Kit Highlights in SWGOH Why the B-Wing Matters The B-Wing is more than a nostalgia drop from the Battle of Endor. It’s been designed as a meta-shaping upgrade for the Rebel fleet: While it won’t dethrone the Big Three fleets (Executor, Profundity, Leviathan), the B-Wing significantly raises the ceiling for Rebel fleets, especially in matchups against similarly invested…

Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes Relic Delta design update graphic showcasing progression changes and developer insights.

The developers of Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (SWGOH) have released a new Design Fireside Chat Edition, and it’s packed with insight into one of the most significant changes to progression the game has seen in years: Relic Delta. This is not just a patch note—it’s a look behind the curtain at the philosophy guiding SWGOH’s design team as they balance scalability, progression, and player investment in a live-service game that’s now a decade old. TL;DR highlights Why Relic Delta? For years, relics have been the backbone of vertical progression in Galaxy of Heroes. Introduced six years ago as a replacement for the gear grind, relics simplified character progression and provided clear, scalable upgrades. But here’s the issue: This is a scalability problem. If vertical progression stalls in a vertical game, the core loop of Play > Get Rewards > Invest > Get Stronger > Play breaks down. Without meaningful…

The developers of Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes have given fans a rare peek behind the curtain. In a new community check-in, the team shared early details about an ambitious feature currently in closed playtesting—something they’re calling the “Relic Delta” system. While that’s only a working title, the concept could reshape how Relic levels influence battles on the Holotables. A Closed Playtest With Open Discussion For this update, the devs are trying something unusual: That means the community will get firsthand insights from testers long before the official release. If the team later expands the playtest, they promise to announce how others can join.
