Star Wars Force Collection Is Getting The Contra Mini-Game Back Just In Time For Star Wars Day
Konami just announced today that they'll be bringing back the fan-favorite Contra mini-game to their popular Star Wars: Force Collection mobile trading card game, just in time for May 4th known to most as Star Wars™ Day. One again, players will get their retro fix with Operation: Going Solo, a four-stage run and gun adventure featuring Han Solo that was created in the style of retro-classic Contra.
For a limited time only, all Star Wars™: Force Collection players will be able to take Han Solo and his trusty blaster through the forests of Endor and other heavily guarded Empire facilities. Plus, players will earn special rewards just for playing the game, those rewards include 5-star light or dark side cards, which can also be utilized in an "Elite Operatives" event held concurrently with the mini-game for any players looking to challenge their battle formation strategies.
New 5-star cards will also be arriving to Star Wars: Force Collection with Star Wars: The Force Awakens favorites Finn and Captain Phasma. Both will be a force to be reckoned with in any player's battle deck. Additional 5-star characters arriving to Star Wars: Force Collection in the coming weeks include Lor San Tekka and a flametrooper. All I'm going to say about that bit is #WheresRey?
Star Wars: Force Collection is a card battle game that takes place in the Star Wars universe, naturally. Players can take command of more than 500 heroes, villains, and vehicles; including Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker.
Star Wars: Force Collection is available now at the iTunes App Store for iPad, iPhone and even the iPod touch, as well as Google Play for Android devices.
The new trailer for the Contra Mini-Game is below. May the 4th be with you!
