Joymax and Lucasfilm today (2nd April) announced the first smartphone flight shooter game based on the “Star Wars” franchise. The game title is “Star Wars：Starfighter Missions”.
The game is developed specifically for the users in Japan, Korea, and SEA, according to Gilhyung Lee, CEO of Joymax Corp, a Korean mobile game developer. “”Anyone who has ever seen a space battle in Star Wars has dreamt of piloting a starfighter. Now, players will be able to fly iconic Star Wars starfighters wherever they are in this new mobile game.”
▍Gameplay
In “Star Wars: Starfighter Missions”, players can choose to fight for the light or the dark side, collecting and upgrading over 80 iconic starfighters, leading three starfighters in fast paced, adrenaline-fueled battles. Fans can also take iconic ships and fight above well-known planets, reliving iconic battles in the Star Wars galaxy from the Classic or New Trilogies.
You can also assemble your own unique team of starfighters from a variety of classes with differing abilities. By swapping in starfighters during epic dogfights, players will be able to deploy powerful weapons that are unique to different starfighter classes.
After defeating their enemies in battle, players will be able to collect and upgrade iconic starfighters, including Han Solo’s Millennium Falcon, Luke Skywalker’s X-wing, and Darth Vader’s TIE Advanced. By strategizing which starfighters to take into battle, based on their play style and starfighter collection, players will be able to compete for higher and higher ranks via the League Ranking System.
The game also features the Decal System, which allows players to customize the appearance of starfighters by applying different skins and thus being able to create their own unique team.
▍Various Game Mode is Provided
The game supports various game modes, including:
■ Campaign Battle: provides players with high experience points, items, and new starfighters as they complete each stage.
■ Epic Battle: inspired by iconic battles from the Star Wars movies and rewards users with hero class starfighters that aren’t available in the Campaign mode.
■ Challenge: allows users to compete with other players to pass as many trials as possible and rise up the rankings.
