Star Wars: Uprising, an upcoming action-RPG for mobile, includes official story details about what happens after Return of the Jedi.
Speaking with IGN, Daniel Erickson, the Senior Director of Design at Kabam, shared an overview of Uprising’s plot. The story was written in tandem with Lucasfilm to ensure its canon is consistent with other official Star Wars stories, like the upcoming film, The Force Awakens, as well as the Aftermath novel.
After Return of the Jedi, word of the Emperor’s death quickly spreads throughout the galaxy.
When the news reaches the Anoat sector – which contains classic Star Wars movie locations like Hoth and Cloud City – local Imperial Governor Adelhard locks down the entire region. This “Iron Blockade” stops all incoming and outgoing space traffic and communications, trapping the people within. Adelhard denies all “rumors” of the Emperor’s death and kills anyone who speaks otherwise.
