“There’s lots of different kinds of fandom inside of Star Wars and having over 300 ships and characters to come and explore, whether your Star Wars fandom started with the original trilogy movies, like it did for me, or some of the newer content that we’re celebrating, like ‘Andor’ and ‘Mandalorian’ and ‘Ahsoka’ — this game is intended to be an entry point to Star Wars fandom,” studio general manager at EA’s Capital Games, Erik Larsen said. “And then you can go and explore and be exposed to characters from comic books and from novels and from streaming content that maybe you didn’t grow up with or that wasn’t your entry point, but there’s so much richness to discover.”
