Star Wars: Commander New Update Brings New Content Based on 'Force Awakens':


A new update has come to the hit mobile combat strategy game, Star Wars: Commander by Disney Interactive and Lucasfilm Ltd. The update includes new content on the most anticipated film of the year in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Players will now be able to relocate to and engage in conflicts on the world of Takodana as seen in the trailers of 'The Force Awakens."

When players engage in conflict on the world they will encounter two new "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" inspired mercenary units, the Dowutin Hunter and Luggabeast Munitioneer. The new mercenary units will be permanently unlockable through a leveled-up Cantina and can be upgraded. Also, for a limited time beginning today, players will receive five free consumable units of each new mercenary by following the directions when logging on to the game. 

Here are the details on the new update for Star Wars: Commander -

  • Luggabeast Munitioneer – Players can hire the armored Luggabeast Munitioneer, based on the cybernetic-enhanced beast of burden in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, to support their massive armies as they apply a damage buff to nearby friendly units.
  • Dowutin Hunter – Inspired by a new species unveiled in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Dowutin Hunters are lumbering infantry hired to dispatch enemy defending units with shock and awe, troops and vehicles alike. They carry a grip of thermal detonators and a modified starfighter blaster to ensure that the job gets done
  • Planet Takodana – Featuring Maz’s Castle, the planet Takodana is the home to many unaligned scoundrels and provides the perfect setting for new Conflicts in Star Wars: Commander.
Star Wars: Commander is available on the Apple App Store, Google Play, and the Amazon Appstore.
