Timeline

Since this game appears to feature the Inquisitor alive and well, and Kanan's not a captive, this game must take place before the final three episodes of season one. Is there any way to further narrow down the timeline? - AV-6R7User talk:AV-6R7 03:52, March 31, 2015 (UTC)

  • Does Ezra ever appear with/use his lightsaber in-game? If not I'd say that's pretty good evidence it takes place before Path of the Jedi, as ever since he got his lightsaber on the show he hasn't used his energy slingshot. Cevan (talk) 04:30, March 31, 2015 (UTC)
  • Ok, I just got something even better than that. The opening of the game says that Ezra is 14 years old, meaning this has to take place sometime before Empire Day. Cevan (talk) 05:16, March 31, 2015 (UTC)
    • Yep, no saber. Ezra's cadet outfit is available in the game, so i'd say it takes place between Breaking Ranks and Empire Day. - AV-6R7User talk:AV-6R7 21:41, March 31, 2015 (UTC)
      • Is there any mention of Fulcrum at all? If so it's probably after Out of Darkness, as I don't believe the rest of the Ghost crew knew about Fulcrum prior to Out of Darkness. Cevan (talk) 21:50, March 31, 2015 (UTC)
        • I'll have to get deeper into the game to see. - AV-6R7User talk:AV-6R7 23:15, March 31, 2015 (UTC)
          • Another wrinkle. A new update has been released for the game that replaces Ezra's slingshot with him lightsaber.--AV-6R7Crew Pit 05:17, August 23, 2015 (UTC)
            • Now there's a new patch that makes Ahsoka playable. Herochild (talk) 12:50, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

Behind the Scenes?

As you all likely already know, the game makes use of the generic character models that are used throughout the Rebels series, eg: Keri Belab uses the brunette, blue-eyed version of the character model which was modified to be Minister Tua, the brown tunic wearing Ithorian in the series premiere, "Droids in Distress" and "the Future of the Force" is the character model used for Rance Lojo, etc. Should we mention this in a Behind the Scenes section for the game?

And if so, what is the citation needed? There is very clear visual evidence, but there isn't ever a statement outright re: these generic background CGI models being the basis for the citizens of Lothal being rescued and housed in the Haven. Telsij (talk) 18:22, December 19, 2016 (UTC)
