Star Wars Unlimited continues its thrilling journey with the upcoming fourth set, Jump to Lightspeed, launching in March 2025. This set shifts the focus to the vastness of space, introducing new mechanics, deck types, and booster packs to enhance gameplay. Forget ground battles, it’s time to buckle up and prepare for hyperspace!
Spotlight on New Leaders and Piloting Mechanic
Instead of the traditional two-player starter sets, Jump to Lightspeed will launch with two 50-card Spotlight decks featuring iconic rivals Han Solo and Boba Fett as Leaders. Each deck includes five Special-rarity cards, including the Leader card, and comprises mainly Jump to Lightspeed cards with additions from previous sets. A significant addition to the game is the Piloting keyword, enabling Leaders to function as Ground Units or Upgrades for space vehicles, creating potent combinations and strategic depth.
Soaring Through Space with New Cards
Jump to Lightspeed introduces a plethora of new cards, including Chewbacca, Hunting Aggression, Bossk, and the aforementioned Leaders. The key art hints at the inclusion of Admiral Thrawn and Hera Syndulla, suggesting a broader Clone Wars presence in the set.
“The team at Fantasy Flight Games is thrilled to introduce our fourth Star Wars™: Unlimited card game set,” said Danny Schaefer, lead game designer. “In Jump to Lightspeed, we’ve explored a uniquely thrilling context with beautiful artwork as classic characters like Boba Fett and Han Solo battle it out in space.”
Carbonite Edition Booster Packs for Collectors
A new booster pack type, the Carbonite Edition, caters to collectors with a premium experience. Unlike standard packs with one foil card and a chance at Hyperspace or Showcase foils, every card in a Carbonite Edition pack features a special aesthetic treatment, including foils, Hyperspace foils, Showcase cards, and the exclusive Carbonite Edition Prestige Variants. These variants are based on existing cards, ensuring no unique cards are locked behind this premium offering.
Limited Availability for Carbonite Edition
Collectors should be aware that Carbonite Edition packs are a limited print run and won’t be reprinted. This exclusivity adds to their appeal for dedicated fans looking to enhance their collections.
Prepare for Launch
Star Wars Unlimited: Jump to Lightspeed is set to arrive in game stores in March 2025. Prepare to pilot your favorite characters through thrilling space battles and expand your Star Wars card game collection.
