The images show off movie's characters (returning and new), as well as its various environments, vehicles (Rey's farm tractor-like speeder is one of them), and more. You can see a few of the images in the gallery above, but you'll want to visit Entertainment Weekly to see the complete gallery, as it also features insight from director JJ Abrams and other key creative people involved in the making of the movie.

The Force Awakens opens on December 18. The film stars John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Max von Sydow, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher.

Absent from these images--and all other Force Awakens marketing materials--is Luke Skywalker. In October, Abrams confirmed that it was "no accident" that Mark Hamill has so far been missing.

The next Star Wars game, meanwhile, is Star Wars Battlefront. The game launches on November 17 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, though Xbox One owners with an EA Access membership can start playing on November 12.
