This game will utilize the same game system as previous Villainous titles, with players using their character’s powers, strategic leadership, and/or luck in an attempt to fulfill that villain’s specific ambition. The game will also incorporate familiar visuals from the Star Wars galaxy, such as iconic locations and beloved starships. There will also be some new gameplay elements that are more specific to the Star Wars brand. Like other Villainous games, this title will include sculpted movers that represent each of the villains.
