The prologue does a good job of guiding you through what essentially amounts to a glorified tutorial but in a way that doesn&#8217;t necessarily feel tedious as you become more familiar with the controls while introducing a bit about what is going on at this point in the star wars universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I haven&#8217;t had the chance to experience multiplayer yet, I will try to cover that in a later review once I have had more time to delve deeper into this game.  Overall I am excited about the potential this game has and I look forward to piloting my way through space and engaging in plenty of interstellar fights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest game release in the Star Wars universe seems to have a lot of potential going forward.
