I was so excited to hear PlayStation is bringing back Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection! This version of Tekken 5 first hit arcades, and then came to the PSP back in 2006.

In Season 1 of Ahsoka, Lars Mikkelsen’s Grand Admiral Thrawn came back from exile in another galaxy, and he’s likely uniting various warlords as part of a larger plan.

One thing is clear: a significant Imperial storyline is officially part of the Star Wars universe again.
