A second clue has been provided on the identity of the new character joining Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes in June. Back at Star Wars Celebration, EA’s SWGoH Connumity Manager Jesse Anderson tweeted that two “fan favorites” will be added in May and June. Of course R2-D2 was the May the 4th character with classifications as a droid, rebel, resistance and galactic republic, but the identity of the other fan favorite has remained a mystery – until today. 
Anderson’s tweet today all but confirmed the new character will (finally) be Grand Admiral Thrawn. His tweet said only “transmission incoming” showing the photo to the right – the symbol of Agent Kallus as Fulcrum on Star Wars Rebels. In the Season 3 finale of Rebels, Kallus/Fulcrum sneaks off to the tower on Lothal used earlier in the series by Ezra Bridger to send his transmission that Thrawn knows of the Rebels impending attack. However Thrawn follows Kallus and jams the transmission as the two fight it out with Thrawn getting the better of Kallus before taking him into Imperial custody throughout the episode.
Given the fact that the clues we have are “fan favorite” and now this symbol, turned from white to red which specifically occurs when Thrawn and his team jams Kallus’ transmission, the new character must (finally) be Grand Admiral Thrawn, the character at the center of the recently released Star Wars canon novel Thrawn.
Thinking about Thrawn’s place in SWGoH, we have seen a variety of new or newly reworked Empire characters with the additions of Imperial Super Commando and Gar Saxon as well as reworks of General Veers, Stormtrooper, Snowtrooper, Magmatrooper, Death Trooper and Shoretrooper. In addition, Grand Moff Tarkin is expected to get a rework in the coming weeks, thus we could see a shift to an Empire meta if Thrawn has a OP leader ability or kit or the Tarkin rework causes major changes. I could see where Thrawn has a special, different synergy with the Imperial Trooper characters given, like Veers, he is a military leader, but honestly it is all just speculation at this point.
Are you nuts it’s ASHOKA and most likely LUKE IN JUNE
It was written before the announcement of Ahsoka FYI. Just check the date on the article…
Not so obvious, EAJesse said that though Ahsoka is very popular she is not the other fan favorite that they mentioned. The next character hasnt been released yet and probably wont be until the ea festival in LA on June 10th.
