If you’ve paid any attention to the marketing material for Rogue One, you’ll have seen the posters showing some sort of beach confrontation. Narratively it doesn’t make a difference, but you do get to run around an all-new location: Scarif. This is the fourth and final expansion planned for Battlefront – just as Rogue One hits cinemas – and it’s the best one yet.Īs the name indicates, this expansion pack is all about Rogue One, which is set before the events of the original trilogy. The Death Star DLC introduced space battles and multi-phase modes with consequences, a move that continues with Rogue One: Scarif.

I reckon time was limited due to the game coinciding its launch with the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.ĮA did subsequently release DLC packs, and some of it was indeed good stuff that would have made the original release a better game. The cynical would say EA withheld the good stuff so it could sell DLC packages and Season Passes. It was generally well received, but the overriding sentiment was that it was a bit basic.

Star Wars Battlefront has been out for just over a year.

Out now for Season Pass holders, general release December 20th Available on Xbox One, PS4 (version tested), PC
