Force Arena to receive two new units, new mission

Bantha Rider and Dewback Rider in Force Arena.

Star Wars mobile game Force Arena will add a couple of new units and a new mission in an upcoming content update.

The game’s servers will go down as follows to apply the update (listed by timezone):

  • UTC: 7 a.m. February 10 – 10 a.m.
  • ET: 2 a.m. February 10 – 5 a.m.
  • PT: 11 p.m. February 9 – 2 a.m. February 10

Each faction will gain one new card after the update.

The Rebels will receive the Bantha Rider. Per its description via an official post:

The Bantha is a very versatile animal. It’s fur, leather, meat, and bones are all useful! Even it’s feces can be used as fuel! Such an amazing resource! It also has Blue Milk which is amazing if you haven’t tried it! However, in Force Arena we have no use for such things. We need to tame the beast and weaponize it to strike fear into our enemies!

Its stats are as follows:

The Empire will get the Dewback Rider to counter the Rebellion’s furry monster. Per its official description:

The Dewback is a reptile that has thick skin. Its movement is usually slow, but with the push of its rider, can be made to run at blinding speeds! Soon, you will be able to have the power of the Dewback in your own hands.

Probably my favorite bit for each card is the fact that the rider will continue to fight after their creature dies.

To help unlock and level up the two new units, a new mission is also being added. Here are its criteria and rewards:

While neither card isn’t exactly exciting, its still neat to see Netmarble add some new in-game content so shortly after the game’s release.
