Earlier this week it was announced that the lovable Wookie Chewbacca was set to join Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes, and as part of the GameChangers program, we are pleased to reveal Chewie’s kit. A Rebel Attacker who is also a member of the Smuggler and Scoundrel factions, Chewbacca synergies well with Han Solo, Commander Luke Skywalker and more, just like in the movies.
While the actual dates for the One Tough Wookie event to unlock Chewbacca are yet to be released, we anticipate the event to take place in the next week or two. Our Director of Content, LJ, will be live blogging the event with a breakdown of the toons he is using, mods, speeds and key stats. Use the links below to view Chewie’s kit and videos from our fellow GameChangers, and be sure to check back here at Gaming-fans.com this week as LJ will test Rebel Chewie out and write his mod guide for the Wookie hero.
