Rey

Rey is a Resistance Hero in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II.

Her ship, Rey and Chewbacca's Millennium Falcon, is playable as a Hero ship in Starfighter Assault and Hero Starfighters.

Overview
Rey is one of the most versatile and dangerous heroes in the game, and she can be played both as an offensive and supportive character. Her first ability, Dash Strike, sees Rey charge forward with her lightsaber held high, dealing damage to enemies who dare stand in her way. When dashing, Rey's general direction can be altered, though she cannot make quick turns (until the Battle on Scarif Update changed dash mechanics, allowing her to make quick turns), and the dash itself is relatively slow. However, if she lines up enough enemies in her sights, this ability can be quite effective. Her Mind Trick can cause confusion in enemies that are affected, leaving them open to attack. Battle Droid heads will rotate uncontrollably, and Stormtroopers will look lost, helpless, and confused. In multiplayer, enemy players' controls are inverted. Insight is her third ability and it reveals enemies to her and her teammates in a certain radius. It also hides Rey from the enemy radar, which allows her to coordinate flanking attacks and ambushes against enemy units.
