Building upon the foundation of groundbreaking visuals and authenticity of EA's Star Wars Battlefront, DICE, Motive and Criterion are teaming up to deliver one of the most expansive Star Wars games to date. The first fully-formed trailer for "The Last Jedi" had nearly half a million views and more than 13,000 comments on YouTube within 90 minutes of being posted, with #TheLastJedi quickly becoming the top trending hashtag worldwide on Twitter.

"Sometimes, we wanted to go in that direction", he said. The game can now be pre-ordered in either a standard and deluxe edition.

"Star Wars: The Last Jedi" hits theaters in December. But not only will the tattooed Sith, and little green Jedi be in the new installment, we'll also see Kylo Ren, Rey, and many more characters from the Star Wars cinematic universe.

It was one of the poorly kept secrets of the week, as the Battlefront II trailer leaked a few days ago. The game is also drawing on all Star Wars eras for inspiration, as highlighted by the appearances of Darth Maul and Yoda.

The 132-second clip teases Luke Skywalker's first meeting with Rey as he teaches her the ways of the Force, opening with the young apprentice on the island where fans saw her find Luke at the end of "The Force Awakens". Players can also equip both characters with epic ability upgrades in multiplayer. Visually, the troopers will change depending on the era of a given mission. While discussing the story during the panel, new light was shined on what players can expect.

Turkish vote on death penalty would 'break with European values'
A victory for Turkey's President in a referendum on Sunday triggered a modest rally in the Turkish lira yesterday. With 99.97% of ballots counted, the Yes campaign had won 51.41% of the votes cast, while No had taken 48.59%.

"Its possible, anything is possible", he said. Many fans have predicted that Hera would be the last surviving member of the Ghost crew, and this trailer definitely makes it look that way.

"These Hero characters are also highlighted in the vastly-expanded multiplayer". One image of the Falcon skimming the surface of a lake not only featured the rectangular radar dish seen in The Force Awakens, but its low angle shot of the ship skimming off the surface of the water looked straight out of the J.J. Abrams playbook.

The popular 40-year-old Star Wars franchise in recent times has been criticized for a lack of recognizably female characters.

I know the first game had its issues and we're not supposed to give into the hype, but goddamn I want to play that. Watch the Star Wars Battlefront II reveal trailer below! The game launches on November 17.
