Team composition can be restricted by game mode (such as light side or dark side battles), and most characters work best within a team composed of their faction due to synergy bonuses. SWGoH is a sandbox collector RPG where players collect characters and ships ("toons"), upgrading them and creating teams of up to 5 units which are then brought into the turn-based combat system against a group of enemy AI-controlled units and player-made teams. However, due to the sandbox nature of the game, this does not canonize the characters in the current narrative acknowledged by Lucasfilm. The game also features material from Legends, with characters such as Revan, Bastila Shan and Kyle Katarn. Due to the nature of the game, it is not considered to be canon. The game allows players to collect characters from the prequel trilogy, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Star Wars Rebels, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the original trilogy, The Mandalorian, the sequel trilogy, and put those characters into battle. The game was first announced on June 15, 2015, in EA's press conference during the 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo. Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (SW:GoH) is a mobile game by Electronic Arts released on November 24, 2015. It is that collaboration that has enabled us to deliver a unique mobile experience that brings the vastness of the epic Star Wars franchise into the palm of your hand." ―John Salera, Executive Producer at EA Capital Games " We have a great partnership with the talented folks at Lucasfilm and Disney Interactive.
