The Force is stronger than ever – and not just for the characters and starships in the Star Wars™ saga, but also for the brand new set of the collectible card game Star Wars™: Unlimited. With the “Switch to Lightspeed” set, players can enjoy new cards that take gameplay to the next level and make the familiar worlds and characters of the Star Wars™ universe even more vivid. But what makes this set so special? Let’s dive in!

Speed of light – A new pace of play!

As the name of the set suggests, Switch to Lightspeed is all about speed, time and the dramatic advantage that quick decisions can bring. The set introduces a brand new mechanic that allows players to play their cards at lightning speed and trigger powerful effects instantly – similar to traveling through hyperspace in the galaxy’s famous spaceships.

The new “Speed of Light” ability allows players to bring cards from their hand or deck into play faster, changing the dynamics of battles. Through strategic timing, powerful moves and combos can now be used even more effectively. Those who are fast have a clear advantage – and that can make the difference between victory and defeat!

A highlight is the introduction of legendary characters such as Han Solo and Chewbacca, who find their familiar abilities and personalities in the form of new cards. Han Solo can react at lightning speed with special abilities thanks to his speed and acumen, while Chewbacca brings his strength and determination to the fight. These characters not only offer strategic advantages, but also bring a lot of flair and charm to the game.

New cards from the ranks of the Rebel Alliance also increase the challenge for the Empire. Tactical cards that focus on guerrilla warfare and surprise attacks open up new strategic options for players who want to dominate the game with clever maneuvers and precise moves.

New spaceships and vehicles

Of course, a Star Wars™ set should not be without the legendary spaceships. X-wingers, TIE fighters and the Millennium Falcon are just some of the vehicles that play a central role in this set. These spaceships are not only impressive icons of the universe, but also bring additional strategic depth to the game. With the new “speed of light” mechanic, spaceships can now move even faster and create important turning points in the game.

The pace of play and tactics – A new rhythm

What makes this set truly unique is the way it changes the pace of the game. “Switch to Lightspeed” makes for even more dynamic and faster games. Players need to plan their moves with lightning speed and precision to take advantage of the new “Speed of Light” abilities. If you time your cards right, you can gain a decisive advantage and influence the game immediately. A single move can change everything – just like in a real Star Wars™ duel, where every decision and every reaction determines the outcome of the battle.

Our conclusion – The set for quick thinkers!

With “Star Wars™: Unlimited – Switch to Lightspeed”, Fantasy Flight Games offers a new and exciting look at the Star Wars™ universe and the trading card game. The set brings exciting mechanics, iconic characters and tactical depths that will delight old fans and new players alike.

Whether you love fast-paced space battles, want to control legendary characters or are simply looking for a new challenge, you’ll definitely enjoy this set. So, what are you waiting for? Set the game to “light speed” and experience the adventure!
