8	----
9	!!Tropes in this video game include:
10	* BecomeARealBoy: Subverted with [=J-3D1=]. He isn't just a droid who ''wants'' to be a Jedi. He has been ''programmed'' to believe that the Force is with him, despite there having been no instances of Force-sensitive droids in Canon.
11	* BountyHunter: Natch. Aran Tal and Imara Vex are bounty hunters out of the playable cast.
12	* CallForward: In preview footage, you can see the back of Rieve's head, which has the [[Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker Sith Eternal]] symbol tattooed into it.
13	* ContinuityNod:
14	** On the official website, Rieve's character reveal image has her name written in the same font as ''Series/TheAcolyte''.
15	** [[https://twitter.com/DaiIySWGames/status/1436020839649095684?s=20 One of]] [=J-3DI1=]'s customizable paint jobs is based on the Jedi Temple Guard look.
16	** [[TheRemnant Sentinel's]] stormtrooper armor is weathered and rundown, much like the Imperial Remnants in ''Series/TheMandalorian''
17	* GrievousHarmWithABody: The Wookiee warrior Grozz wields the disembodied arms of Imperial droids like clubs.
18	* HeroShooter: Each character is going to have different abilities, weapons and playstyles, like the heroes of ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017''
19	* MiniMecha: Slingshot, an adrenaline-junkie Ugnaught mechanic, has repurposed a Droideka to be a manually-piloted combat mech for his use.
20	* TotemPoleTrench: The Jawa characters Utooni are this, being two Jawas in a trench coat. Being one single playable character, this also makes them TheDividual.
21	* MythologyGag: Aran Tal's color scheme is based on how Boba Fett looked in ''Film/TheStarWarsHolidaySpecial''.
22	* TheRemnant: Sentinel still wears the Imperial colors, even going so far as to brand the Empire's symbol on his helmet, even after the [[spoiler: supposed]] [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi death of the Emperor and the Empire's decline.]] [[spoiler:In reality, he abandoned the Empire and grew to hate it, but kept the persona of an Imperial loyalist in the arena]].
