It is a time of renewed hope, Luke Skywalker, a Tatooine farmhand yearning for adventure, rises to help the fledgling Rebel Alliance destroy the Death Star and score a major win against the evil Galactic Empire. Yet victory is fleeting, Palpatine and his apprentice Darth Vader will stop at nothing to crush the Alliance - Dispatching elite units, underworld criminals, and probe droids across the galaxy.

On the run, Leia Organa, Han Solo, and the rest of the Alliance embark on missions to disrupt the Imperial war machine and recruit allies to the Rebellion. Luke's personal quest to become a Jedi Knight leads to a final confrontation with Vader and the redemption of his father, Anakin Skywalker. But peace is elusive again, as Palpatine's apparent death triggers Operation: Cinder, ultimately leading Imperial and New Republic fleets to a mighty showdown at the Battle of Jakku.
