Lenovo Announces New Content for ‘Star Wars: Jedi Challenges’ From ‘The Last Jedi’

Last year Lenovo unveiled Star Wars: Jedi Challenges, and we got to experience it at The Last Jedi press junket in LA; and then in the comfort of our own home last month. Offering Holochess, Strategic Combat, and Lightsaber Battles (in which I was able to defeat Darth Maul), Lenovo promised further content would be added; the first expansion pack has just been announced….

A new content expansion for Star Wars™: Jedi Challenges, featuring a new planet and characters from Star Wars™: The Last Jedi™. The content expansion is the first since the November launch of the product and will be available for free through a downloadable update to the Star Wars: Jedi Challenges mobile app. The expansion includes:

• New Lightsaber Duel – Players can duel two elite Praetorian Guards featured in The Last Jedi. This is the first time Jedi Challenges players will duel two characters at the same time.
• New Planet for Strategic Combat – Three thrilling new levels of Strategic Combat set on Crait, a brand new planet that debuts in the film, will come with the update. Battle new enemies and vehicles including the formidable First Order AT-M6 walker.
• New Content in Assault mode – All-new enemies and levels will be introduced, including the First Order Stormtrooper Executioner and Riot Control Stormtrooper.
• Introduction of Porgs – Players will be rewarded with fan-favorite porgs in augmented reality.

The Last Jedi content pack will be available in the Star Wars: Jedi Challenges mobile app in January 2018.

The new content pack will be available for the platform free of charge later this month.
