A new clip from the upcoming Star Wars: Tales of the Empire is out, showcasing a battle between Morgan Elsbeth and General Grievous.
The new clip comes from IGN, who debuted the exclusive scene earlier. The brief clip shows Elsbeth running into Grievous during a battle, and running into the fearsome Kaleesh cyborg Sith.
The new series is similar in style to the 2022 series Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi and will tell six stories from the perspective of the Galactic Empire through the eyes of two diverging paths. Like Tales of the Jedi did with Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku, Tales of the Empire will focus on Nightsister Morgan Elspeth and former Jedi Barriss Offee.
Alongside Elspeth and Offee, Tales of the Empire will also feature a variety of iconic Star Wars characters including Thrawn, the Fourth Sister, General Grievous, Darth Vader, the Grand Inquisitor, and more. Star Wars: Tales of the Empire is set to premiere on Disney+ on May 4, 2024.
