Another update is here! In this update, the Star Wars: Force Arena developers have focused on improving the balancing of the game that will hopefully bring balance to the Force and give more exciting experiences in the arena. Other improvements with the Recommended Guilds List are implemented as well, so check out more details below: ■ Unit Balance Patch All numbers listed in the balance details are based on the cards at Level 1. Dark Side Unit Balance Darth Maul As one of the strongest Legendary cards and one of the most loved Dark Side Leaders in the game, Darth Maul’s Skill allowed players to play more aggressively. A large portion of players have shared their sentiments about him and we are therefore increasing his Passive Skill Cooldown to challenge players to plan out their strategy more carefully since it may now be risky to charge towards turrets.

Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes: Server Update 1/11/18
Here are the Server Update notes for 01/11/2018. While server updates rarely have any player facing content (and thus don’t require notes), this is a rare exception. With a Quality of Life update on the horizon, we wanted to herald this server release which happens to include a highly requested fix for guild leads and officers! DAILY RAID TICKET CONTRIBUTION ALIGNMENT We’re working to fix the ticket counter offset issue!

A small update will be released on the 11th of January. This update will be a balance update and will make changes to cards on both sides of the Force. We are constantly monitoring our players’ feedback and are applying those to the data we have available to make changes. ■ Unit Balance Patch All numbers listed in the balance details are based on the cards at Level 1. Light Side Unit Balance Bantha Rider The Bantha Rider was designed to be a very powerful tank. But as strategies have evolved, a large portion of players have decided that tanking with heroes is much more effective than letting a Bantha Rider push first. We are therefore increasing the health of the Bantha Rider to improve the cards versatility. Rebel Guards Rebel Honor Cards were designed to be a very basic unit. Their slow movement and weakness to ranged attacks were weighted against their…

The Collapse Of Visceral’s Ambitious Star Wars Game
By now, you probably have already heard that the anticipated game was canceled. It seemed like a winner, a Star Wars take on Uncharted, published by Electronic Arts and developed by the longrunning studio Visceral Games. However, we know how it goes in the land of video games and it’s not unusual for one to get the chopping block, even when it seems it will be a hit. On October 17, 2017, employees of Visceral were told the company would be closing. This meant their ambitious Star Wars game would also get the axe. The project was called Ragtag. It was meant to be EA’s entry into the action-adventure market—a linear Star Wars story set between the episode IV and V movies that would compete with the likes of Uncharted and Tomb Raider. It was lead up by Amy Hennig, iconic writer, and director who is known for her work on the Uncharted games. The team at Visceral worked hard creating…

A Gem of a Star Wars Game – Jedi Starfighter
If you never had the chance to play the game, or if you’re just looking for some nostalgic fun, check out this Jedi Starfighter Retro Review from Joe, The Alternative Gamer. He says everything I would say about this game (and likely better). I was a big fan back in the day and honestly, I’d love to go back and play it again for old time’s sake. It’s an all-around great game and a lot of fun to play. Some have called it “Rogue Squadron Lite” which is a fair assessment, really, but it’s still fun in its own right. The story itself is simple, but good enough to keep you interested. It doesn’t take away from the gameplay, but isn’t the best story around in terms of Star Wars games. That’s okay because Starfighter isn’t about that anyway. It’s about flying and fighting (duh). It’s really one of my favorite games…
