“Like so many others around the world, everyone at DICE is a tremendous
fan of the Star Wars universe,” said Sigurlina Ingvarsdottir,
Senior Producer of Star Wars Battlefront. “To be working on a Star
Wars project and knowing we are helping to represent the universe we
love to our generation and a legion of new Star Wars fans is
truly an honor. Thanks to the access and knowledge shared with us
by Lucasfilm, and the passion and talent of our team, we plan to deliver
an amazing game that puts you right in the middle of the Star Wars
battles you always imagined playing.”
Star Wars Battlefront will allow fans to live out a wide range of
heroic moments and intense battle fantasies of their own – firing
blasters, riding speeder bikes and snow speeders, commanding AT-ATs and
piloting TIE fighters and the Millennium Falcon. These battles
will take place on some of the most iconic planets in the Star Wars
universe, including Endor, Hoth, Tatooine and the previously unexplored
planet, Sullust. Gamers will be able to play as some of the most
memorable characters in the original trilogy such as Darth Vader and
Boba Fett. Star Wars Battlefront will feature a wide range of
modes tailored for different types of battles, from larger 40-person
competitive multiplayer to crafted missions that are played solo, with a
friend via split-screen offline or co-operatively online.
Fans who pre-order
Star Wars Battlefront will be among the first players to
experience the Battle of Jakku*, the pivotal moment when the New
Republic confronted key Imperial holdouts on a remote desert planet on
the Outer Rim. Taking place in the aftermath of the Rebel victory in the
Battle of Endor, players will experience the events that created the
massive, battle-scarred landscape of Jakku shown in Star Wars™:
The Force Awakens™. Players who pre-order Star Wars Battlefront
can fight the battle one-week early starting on December 1, 2015. All
other players will get access to this free† content on
December 8, 2015.
Star Wars Battlefront will be available in North America on
November 17 and starting November 19 in Europe for the PlayStation®4
