Future Star Wars Games Will Reportedly Allow You To Create Trans Characters

Upcoming Star Wars video games may let you create trans heroes to play as in their character creation systems.

wegotthiscovered.com

In March, Disney and Lucasfilm proudly unveiled Star Wars‘ first trans, non-binary characters. These are Jedi Terec and Ceret, who feature in Marvel’s The High Republiccomic, with Lucasfilm explaining that they’re “passionate and committed to broadening our representation in a galaxy far, far away.”

This philosophy now looks likely to extend to video games, as sources close to We Got This Covered tell us that future Star Warsgames will allow players to create trans heroes in their character creators. If it comes to pass, it’ll be a nice bit of inclusivity, especially as the vast majority of contemporaries stick rigidly to binary genders (with Saint’s Row being a notable exception).

The obvious candidate for this feature is Ubisoft’s upcoming open-world game. The team behind The Division series is currently hard at work on delivering a Star Wars RPG, with Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot describing the project as “an original Star Wars adventure that is different from anything that has been done before.”


Both games in The Division franchise have deep character creation options that allow you to tweak almost every aspect of the way your avatar looks, so it’s a no-brainer to bring in trans options.

This is all a long way away from Star Wars: The Old Republic, which in 2012 saw a low point in LGBTQ representation with the planet Makeb. Dubbed “the gay planet” by players, it was the sole location in which players could flirt with characters of the same sex. This quite rightly led to criticism of “digital segregation” and the whole thing backfired tremendously.

Let’s hope we see more of Ubisoft’s as yet untitled game soon. Anyone who’s played Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will know that there’s nobody in the business who can create open-worlds quite like Ubisoft, and if they manage to let players insert themselves into Star Wars they should be onto a winner.

How does "transgender" even make sense in the Star Wars galaxy? Like do the midichlorians make it impossible for science to change your gender even though in Star Wars medical technology is so advanced that you can be frozen in a block of carbon for a year and then defrosted a year later in minutes with no lasting consequences?

Why are troons so unimaginative when it comes to science fiction? "Well we'll have all this crazy advanced medical technology in the future but trans people will still need their horse piss hormones and cheap plastic surgery for their amholes."

Based if intentional. I guess they didn't like homos much back during The Old Republic.

It's fantasy, can do anything fantasy. The issue is reality isn't fantasy and you can't do everything in reality despite what these loons want and say.

What is a 'trans option' supposed to be? Just don't put any restrictions on the character creator (i.e face shape, facial features, voice, body shape, etc.) and you already have the same thing.

 

[Mealy Mouth Spittle]

Not a gamer, so I know nothing about any of these games -- but do they allow for PvP? Because, if so -- the ability to kill troons in game would be pretty sweet.

Lightdilators

 

[A-Stump]

The tenants of the Jedi Code literally fly in the face of trooning out.

No emotion
No ignorance
No passion
No Chaos

Anyone uncomfortable with themselves in that manner would immediately become a sith lmao

 

[modern horrors]

People will post screenshots of beautiful and valid la creaturas they made to piss trannies off. Trannies will take the bait and demand for devs to remove the tranny character option.

 

[Tism the Return]

Will there be a button to commit suicide? So I can really get immersed in my Star Tranny character.

 

[Absolutetense]

Good news for the faggy Star Wars fan-community.
Maybe they can even play scenarios of thankless movies but with a rainbow lightsaber that pisses on its opponent.
Fuck Star Wars, it has long overstayed its welcome.

 

[Dagobert]

We need to bring back the Aberdeen protestor to handle this.

Spoiler: The correct response

 

[Jimjamflimflam]

I'm assuming this "feature" will be removed once this game is released in China?

 

[The Lawgiver]

I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT TRANNIES LET ME PLAY AS EMPEROR JARJAR.

Besides, Lego star wars had didney wars beat by about 10 years or so if You count the official merch for the lego star wars videogame as representation (and you should because fuck disney's pandering ass palpatine slave trooper is the only acceptable answer to the gender question)

 

[Peanut Butter in Peril]

Who's ready to see how much coping, seething, and dilating will occur on Twatter because "muh representation" doesn't meet their impossible standards?

 

[Tleilaxian]

... If you're actually a tranny, why would you want to intentionally subject yourself to being a disgusting tranny again in your escapist fantasy media, instead of just creating a character that is the sex you want to be?

This is some of the most retarded shit I've ever heard.

 

[Mr. Zed da Robot Poon Fed]

This is so fucking dumb. What?

This movement is a fucking cult.

 

[Dysnomia]

Will there be a button to commit suicide? So I can really get immersed in my Star Tranny character.

I'm most excited about the possibility of dilation stations.

 

[Jet Fuel Johnny]

Great, so my character is going to kill itself during creation 41% of the time.

 

[Autistsforuganda2]

In the end, it will mow5 lik3la be just a word in the profile option, which the main game won't go into and Trannies don't want that. They want the whole game to revolve around that, else it is not enough.

The only "games" that will revolve around that, are shitty visual novels on steam that cost 5 bucks.

 

[Idiotron]

But.... I thought that troons just wanted to pass as the sex/gender they think they are.
If you're an MtF, would you not just play as a woman?
This seems like the company doesn't know what troons really are but they have to pander to them so this is what they came up with.
This will be hated by troons, troon supporters and troon opponents, nobody will like this.
