Star Wars: Battlefront II May Have Spoiled Something New About Rey In Episode VIII
WARNING: We're about to delve into possible spoiler territory for Star Wars. I personally don't care if you get spoiled or not, but considering you might, this is the one warning you get before proceeding into the world of possible-but-not-yet-confirmed knowledge. Proceed at your own risk.
The YouTube channel The Stupendous Wave posted a new video (below) highlighting what may be a reveal in Star Wars: Episode VIII, through gameplay found on Star Wars: Battlefront II. In the game, every main character has specific traits and abilities that they use to help win battles, or at the very least, push people back enough so better players can take over. Apparently, Rey has got some Force powers in the game, and since the events of this games are considered canon under the new Disney ownership and tie into the new trilogy, it's easy to assume that this may be what happens with Rey in the film.
Rey will have three Force-related abilities, which means that at some point during Episode VIII, she receives enough training from Master Luke Skywalker to do some serious damage. It also means that like all the post-prequel hero Jedi before her, she receives some training but not complete training, because these abilities are clearly not much to brag about in the grand scheme of Jedi potential.
