It’s been quite a while since the last Battlefront installment, Elite Squadron, 4 years, to be exact. That’s why gamers were relieved to find out that DICE, the developers of the Battlefield games and Lucasarts were teaming to make a reboot of the original Battlefront. Here are some features that Lucasarts has revealed.
Characters
Lucasarts promises players they will be able to play as some of the most iconic characters, with more to come.
- Luke Skywalker- The Force is strong with this one. Players will be able to wield the enormous power of the good side of the Force.
- Darth Vader- Portrayed as the most memorable symbol of fear in the Star Wars universe, wield the power of the dark side, crushing your enemies in endless defeat.
What I thought the cover would look like. - Boba Fett- Unleash death from the air. Play as Boba Fett, the ruthless bounty hunter. Last I heard, he had a bounty on every Rebel scum in the galaxy.
- Princess Leia Organa- Be a devoted leader of the Rebellion and use both defensive maneuvers and powerful attacks on the battlefront. Avoid enemy fire behind the Enhanced Squad Shield or one-shot most enemies with the mighty Trooper Bane ability.
- Emperor Palpatine- End the insignificant rebellion as the galaxy’s prime symbol of evil, Emperor Palpatine. Shock enemies with the iconic Force Lightning or use Force Dash to traverse the battlefront.
- Han Solo- The legendary smuggler who’s seen his share of blaster fights. Playing as Han Solo, you can adapt to any situation fighting off Imperial troops. The Six Shooter and Lucky Shot abilities will fit both long and short ranged combat.

Missions
Want to play with a buddy, but your ISP’s giving you a headache? Don’t worry, Battlefront Missions is a great way to pass time while your ISP passes WiFi to your neighbors!
- Survival- Simple: Live as long as you can without dying with a buddy.
…..And that’s it! Lucasarts plans to release “more in the months ahead”
Multiplayer
Lucasarts promises multiplayer to be even more promising, with the assurance of a mode that promises 40 player battles. Game On!
- Walker Assault- The Empire calls on their onslaught of AT-AT walkers in this mode, giving you only Y-Wings to fight them. For those who’ve seen the movies, there’s only one way to topple one of these giants.
Again, that’s it. Look for more to be announced soon.
