"The tale is set against the backdrop of a burgeoning rebellion against a ruthless Empire, where people and planets are drawn into a conflict that will have far-reaching effects across the galaxy. It's an era filled with danger, deception and intrigue, and one that will test the courage and resolve of a reluctant hero determined to make a difference," an official description reads.
