This game allows you to relive the desperate struggle between the Rebel Alliance and the mighty Imperial forces, commanding iconic units such as AT-ATs, Snowspeeders, and Rebel soldiers. Each game unfolds as a new chapter in the battle for Echo Base, bringing the Star Wars universe vividly to life. The gameplay is built on the acclaimed Commands & Colors system—famous from Memoir ’44—making it approachable yet deeply strategic. Players use command cards to activate units, maneuver across a hex-grid battlefield, and roll dice to resolve tense skirmishes.

The core box includes seventeen distinct scenarios, each recreating pivotal moments or “what-if” twists from the Battle of Hoth. These scenarios can be played as quick skirmishes that last between 30 and 60 minutes or linked into two branching campaigns where the outcome of each mission shapes the next, adding a rich narrative layer to your gameplay. To add further depth and replayability, the game features six legendary leader cards representing iconic Star Wars characters such as Leia and Darth Vader, each offering unique abilities that can influence the tide of battle.

Designed for 2 to 4 players aged 8 and up, Star Wars: Battle of Hoth is perfect for family game nights, casual Star Wars fans, and hardcore strategists alike. The game comes with premium plastic miniatures, chunky dice, and high-quality art that captures the look and feel of the Star Wars universe. Additionally, the “Galactic Battles” branding hints at future expansions covering other iconic conflicts from the Star Wars saga, such as the Battle of Endor and the Clone Wars.
