All-New Modes and Features Let Players Team Up to Embark on Epic New Quests for the Galaxy's Most Prized Loot and Gear

In its biggest update yet, Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes now lets players team up in all-new Guilds, strategize and socialize in real-time chat, and embark on Raids against some of the most notorious characters and more from the Star Wars™ universe. Offering new players a chance to team up with powerful Guild mates, and giving elite players new high-level challenges and rewards, Guilds and Raids delivers new ways to collect, compete and conquer.

The new update includes:

Guilds

• Guilds are unlocked when players reach level 22. To join a Guild, players can search for a friend, explore recommended Guilds, or create their own.
• New chat functionality lets players connect and strategize with Guild mates in real time.
• Guild activities provide ongoing challenges to inspire competition and cooperation with Guild mates for epic gear and rewards.
• A deep set of Guild management tools allow Guild leaders to customize a logo, make their Guild public or private, promote officers, manage membership, and more.

Raids

• Players can go deep into The Pit, the first in a series of multi-tier Raids that will grow over time. The Pit challenges Guilds to square off against a ferocious rancor, with multiple difficulty levels and a variety of rewards for players from levels 22 to 80.
• Raid leaderboards let players keep tabs on who's ahead and who's behind in the race to be the best and wealthiest in the Cantina.

Earn New Characters

• Han Solo (Rancor Raid)- Rebel Scoundrel Attacker who always shoots first. Han gets a free attack at the beginning of the battle, allowing the player to start with a substantial advantage.
• Gamorrean Guard (Guild Store)- These powerful warriors use Taunts and Counters with multiple Damage Over Time effects.
• Jawa Engineer (Guild Store)- High-speed Jawa Healer with a critical chance buff that supports both Jawas and Droids—teams that have, until now, not had a healer of their own.
