Details about the brand new companion app for Star Wars Battlefront have been revealed. The companion app will allow players to unlock content to use in both the game and the app. The app will come out for Android and iOS sometime before the game launches on November 17.
The app features a tactical card game called "Base Command". Players will be able to collect cards in order to defend their base against Imperial forces. Games take place in wave-based “sieges” where the player and computer take turns trying to attack and defend.
Base Command will not feature any type of micro-transactions. Once players earn a card, they will have it forever. The currency you earn in the app can be used in Star Wars Battlefront to acquire weapons, new cards and more.
Players will be able to try out the companion app early when Star Wars Battlefront goes into beta during early October. Individuals will be able to test out some of the Base Command sieges and spend credits to unlock Star Cards for use in the full game.
