The Force awakens in Star Wars: Uprising

Star Wars mobile game adds new quest to unlock The Force

There's been an awakening in Star Wars: Uprising. With next week's theatrical release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Kabam's mobile action RPG has been updated with a new quest that allows players to unlock the power of the Force, earn dark side and light side abilities, and to be among the few elite to earn the galaxy's ultimate weapon, the Lightsaber.

"As the uprising struggles to break free from the clutches of the evil Empire, strange new allies appear in the Anoat Sector. A mysterious advisor, a pale witch from far away, and a junk dealer who is more than he appears all have secrets to help unlock the power that binds the galaxy together, the Force. Players must seek it out and wield its power to lead the uprising."

Star Wars: Uprising takes place between Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Following the death of Emperor Palpatine, players band together with smugglers, freedom fighters, bounty hunters and gangsters to rise up against the Empire as it tries to maintain control of the galaxy.
