It seems that Zoids isn't the only major franchise that is getting a mobile MOBA in the near future. Star Wars: Battlegrounds is a Netmarble-developed mobile MOBA based on the iconic Star Wars franchise. According to Inven, the game soft-launched today in Australia and Singapore.

Star Wars: Battlegrounds allows players to take part in focused 1v1 or 2v2 Dota-esque matches. It features over 60 characters that can be collected and upgraded, including iconic characters like Darth Vader Luke Skywalker.

Netmarble will also be showcasing Star Wars: Battlegrounds at G-Star 2016. I'm inclined to believe that it's the unannounced title that was hinted at using a picture of space and a statement about "meeting the universe," but that hasn't been confirmed as of yet.

A representative from Netmarble elaborated on the game's appearance at G-Star in the following—Google Translated—statement.

It is right to launch the software recently. We will officially announce the availability and timing of the launch of G-Star.

You can download Star Wars: Battlegrounds from the App Store or Google Play now, granted you're in Australia or Singapore. The rest of us will have to wait until G-Star to find out when and where the game will officially launch.

Thanks to NepNep for the tip.
