Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. announces today that the Contra mini-game has returned to the popular mobile game Star Wars™: Force Collection.

For a limited time only, all Star Wars™: Force Collection players will be able to play the mini-game inspired by the original Contra as they take Han Solo and his trusty blaster through the forests of Endor and other heavily guarded Empire facilities. Plus, players will earn special rewards just for playing the game! Rewards include 5-star light or dark side cards, which can also be utilized in an “Elite Operatives” event held concurrently with the mini-game for any players looking to challenge their battle formation strategies.

New 5-star cards will also be arriving to Star Wars™: Force Collection with Star Wars: The Force Awakens™ favourites Finn and Captain Phasma. Both will be a force to be reckoned with in any player’s battle deck. Additional 5-star characters arriving to Star Wars™: Force Collection in the coming weeks include Lor San Tekka and a flametrooper.
