A new preview recently dropped for Galaxy of Heroes’ upcoming addition, Ships.

This preview focused on the Crew portion of the mode. Previously, Fleet Commanders were previewed.

Crew are the Characters assigned to a ship to make that ship useable in a space battle. Some ships only require a single crew member (think X-Wings and TIE Fighters) while other larger ships may require multiple crew members (think the Millennium Falcon). Specifically, there will be between 1 and 5 Crew assigned to a given Ship.

Each ship and crew member share a 1:1 relationship meaning that a crew member is only available to crew a specific ship. Biggs Darklighter will only be assigned to his X-Wing Red Three, for example.

When Ships launches, dozens of ships and crew will be available. However, the preview confirmed a select few. Those confirmed include Biggs Darklighter with his X-Wing Red Three, Wedge Antilles with his X-Wing Red Two, Empire TIE Pilot with his Imperial TIE Fighter and Ahsoka Tano with her Jedi Starfighter.

While these are the only confirmed characters for Ships right now, note that there should be many more, including some characters already in game. Additionally, more crew members will be added in the future.
