“Star Wars™: Commander” is a free-to-play combat strategy game where fans will join either the Rebel Alliance or the Galactic Empire to recruit and lead an unstoppable force across the Star Wars™ galaxy.
Star Wars: Commander features the full array of vehicles, weapons and technology from the Star Wars universe.
