Happy Monday, and welcome to what is sure to be another fantastic week of Star Wars content! But before we get there, let’s travel back, back in time, through the World between Worlds, to look at what happened this past week.
First and foremost (I co-host a book podcast, after all), Solo fans got another big taste of Mur Lafferty’s upcoming novelization of the film with three new excerpts (and audiobook clips) from StarWars.com. In addition to everything we already saw on screen, Star Wars fans can expect to learn even more about Qi’ra’s life between Corellia and Crimson Dawn, L3’s life after death, Enfys Nest’s alliance with Saw Gerrera (and encounter with a familiar face), and much, much more.
Next up, the first Clone Wars content in Star Wars Battlefront II is on it’s way to your consoles this week, as the Elite Corps update launches this week. Hitting the interwebs on Wednesday, August 29, the update includes a new appearance for clone troopers, new prequel era maps, the permanent return of Ewok Hunt (sidenote: I’m already terrified), and more.
Finally (ok fine, so it wasn’t that big a week after all), if you’re hoping to see the Tosche Station staff (and I guess some other Star Wars stuff) at Star Wars Celebration Chicago next April, you better act fast – 5-day and Saturday tickets are already sold out, and Friday tickets are right behind them!
That’s it – we made it through a whole journey through the past and didn’t even get attacked by an old man and his weird flaming Force whip thing. That’s a win in my book. See you next week, and may the Force be with you.
