Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes Introduces 3 New Ewoks With Update

As you may have noticed, this month’s Daily Log In reward is Chief Chirpa. That’s not just a coincidence, as an upcoming update is set to introduce three brand new Ewok characters to the already large roster of characters.

Wicket, Logray and Paploo are the new additions and July will also be bringing more Ewok-exclusive events to the game. We will have special Ewok Marquee events, Double Drops and more to celebrate the three new characters. You may have noticed the Ewoks currently in the game have received new art.

Here are all the events going on this month:

  • Updated art – New models, character art, animations, and ability icons for all existing Ewoks
  • Ewoks Faction pass – Updated stats and abilities for Chief Chirpa, Ewok Scout, and Ewok Elder.
  • 3 Brand New Ewoks
    • Wicket – Powerful Ewok Attacker with Critical Hit and Stealth synergies
    • Logray – Sage Ewok Support who can Daze enemies and grant Ewok allies buffs
    • Paploo – Resourceful Ewok Tank with Assist and Buff synergies
  • Ewok Marquee Events – Play with the new Ewoks and get free character shards!
  • Ewok Double Drops – Ewoks are popping up around the Cantina all month long – check back daily to see if your favorite Ewok is causing Double Drop mischief
  • Ewok Flash Events – Power up your Ewok squad to dominate Flash Events and get rare gear and other rewards

You can check out all the other events coming soon in the Road Ahead blog post. Most notably, we have a new iteration of Luke Skywalker coming, called Commander Luke Skywalker.
