About this board game

Star Wars: Destiny is a collectible dice and card game for two players, featuring fast-paced battles that take about 30 minutes to play.

Each player leads a team of iconic heroes or villains drawn from characters, locations, and themes across the entire Star Wars saga. The goal is direct: eliminate your opponent’s characters before they can defeat yours. Heroes and villains must fight on opposite sides, while characters from different factions and eras can be combined within those limits.

During each round, players alternate actions in a tense duel. Activate character dice, play cards from your hand, attack opposing characters, and claim the battlefield at the right moment. The game’s dice-driven combat and faction-driven hand management create straightforward rules with room for strategic decisions and clever deck-building.

  • Use character abilities and an assortment of dice to shape the battle.
  • Build a thirty-card deck containing events, upgrades, and supports.
  • Create unexpected teams, such as Padmé Amidala, Rey, and Finn against Jabba the Hutt, Kylo Ren, and Jango Fett.

Star Wars: Destiny combines accessible play with meaningful choices as you decide how to use your dice, when to spend cards, and how to press your advantage. Every action contributes to the struggle to defeat the opposing team and claim your destiny.

Released in 2016, the game launched with two starter sets, Rey and Kylo Ren, each containing nine dice and 24 cards. Awakenings booster packs added one die and five cards per pack, supporting the game’s collectible format.
