Well this is weird. Konami has made a new Contra game… but as a Chewbacca-themed mini-game inside the collectable card battler Star Wars: Force Collection. I'm as confused as you are.

It's basically an adaptation of the NES classic, but with everyone's favourite Wookie blasting away stormtroopers. There are four levels, taking you from the forests of Endor to the halls of an Imperial facility.

01

You just need to complete the tutorial for Star Wars: Force Collection - which we called "no different from the rest of the battlers out there, for better or worse" in our review - to get the bonus.

Be quick, though, as the App Store update says it will only be available for a limited time.

02

Elsewhere the update adds cards for C-3PO and R2-D2 Cards, and a Super Star Destroyer to take on in a new Boss Event.

You can get the game on iOS and Android for free.
