About this board game

Star Wars: Rivals – Series 1: Premier Set is a two-player expandable card game with approximately 20 minutes of play time, bringing characters from different eras of the Star Wars universe into a clash between the light and dark sides of the Force.

Each player builds a squadron and uses its characters to compete for location cards. The Premier Set includes four featured characters: Luke Skywalker and Commander Cody for the light side, facing Darth Vader and Asajj Ventress for the dark side.

Every character has three unique action cards, giving the game a distinct set of options for each member of your squadron. Players use their characters and action cards as they contend for locations and attempt to gain control of the battlefield.

  • Four characters: Luke Skywalker, Commander Cody, Darth Vader, and Asajj Ventress
  • 14 action cards, including three unique action cards for each character
  • 12 location cards
  • 18 tokens and markers
  • One prism die

The Premier Set is playable on its own, making it a complete starting point for a light-versus-dark confrontation. It also supports expanded squadron building through character booster packs, allowing players to add new characters and create larger light-side or dark-side forces.

With its compact play time, recognizable Star Wars characters, and focus on claiming locations, Star Wars: Rivals offers a direct way for two players to bring opposing squads together in a fast Force-fueled contest.
