Most of the playable heroes’ abilities are fairly straightforward offensive or defensive moves (lightsaber slashes, shields, Force powers), but one of Han Solo’s is a specific reference to a single scene from the original Star Wars.

Supremacy is a big battle objective mode where the goal is to capture and hold 5 control points. You’ll find yourself and your enemies using the same weapons most of the time, and they require a low amount of skill to use due to their low recoil and the game’s high level of aim assist.
