Star Wars fans rejoice, as Disney Interactive has just announced that it will bring its next game in the sci-fi series to mobiles. Star Wars: Assault Team will be launched this spring on Android, iOS and Windows Phone 8, in addition to Windows 8.

As Polygon points out, Star Wars: Assault Team is a turn-based strategy game based on collectible cards, a genre that works very well on all three mobile platforms these days.

“Collect classic characters from the Rebel Alliance and more to defeat enemies and players across the galaxy. Strategically deploy the team's special tactics to battle through new graphically enhanced missions set throughout Star Wars planets and locations from the original trilogy,” notes Disney in the official announcement.

For the time being, Star Wars: Assault Team is in “limited early access” in some countries, but it’s expected to be released for the general public in spring.
