Like what? Ask away, here we are, we can tell you. (Disclaimer in Joe’s spirit, I am the art director on the game.) When the game wasn’t approved by Fox it was hard to answer these questions, but now that they have it’s easy, we can give straight up answers. So just ask, no need to be all wondery and mysterious. 
Yes, we were required to get her approval, it did not come with the game like the rest of the American actors. (Non American actors have different rules, we couldn’t use them.) I don’t know that anyone spoke to her, just her agent. For whatever reason she passed. Sucks but isn’t any kind of deal killer for the game honestly. It’s chock full of quotes and video from the films.
To be clear, the game is approved. What was shown at Expo was done with Fox’s rubber stamp. So I don’t anticipate any further license issues.
So you lock balls in the Hypersleep Lock, upper left of PF. Locked balls light the inserts on the left area. So yeah, you have to skillful nudge to hit the lit insert, and that releases a locked ball. So you trade a lock for a ball save bascially.
I don’t know the end date, but the license was renewed last December when things were running long, so I assume a little while from now at least.
