Star Wars Battlefront 2 Details Announced

Not only that, but some abilities and other unlocks will be available too.

The sequel to Star Wars Battlefront, Star Wars Battlefront 2, has released its first official trailer at the Star Wars Celebration today. All the prominent eras from Star Wars' history will be playable, and hero characters from each of these respective time periods will be playable as well, including Luke Skywalker, Kylo Ren, Yoda, Darth Maul, and Rey.

The story mode to the game will be based around the "untold story of Iden Versio, an elite Stormtrooper" in charge of an Imperial unit named Inferno Squad.

Become a hero in Star Wars™ Battlefront™ II. Mark Thompson, Game Director at Motive Studios who are making the game alongside DICE and Criterion, explains, "When you see the Death Star II explode in the movies, it's celebrated as a victory".

Another big debut during Star Wars Celebration was the first trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Battlefront was multiplayer-only (and was roundly criticized because of that oversight), Battlefront II actually has a full single-player campaign for those that want it. Space combat, where you'll pilot ships like the X-Wing and Millennium Falcon, will host up to 24 players. There's also the fact that there wasn't even a single player campaign to play offline. Offline two-player split-screen is returning, and this time, the rewards and upgrades you earn can then be taken into online play.

But per what we've seen from the recently-released teaser trailer, The Last Jedi resumes right as Rey hands the Skywalker lightsaber back to Luke.

In addition, fans that join EA Access on Xbox One or Origin Access on PC can start playing on November 9th, and your progress will carry over if you decide to buy.
