Star Wars Battlefront II “The Last Jedi” Content Announced

EA has updated the official Star Wars Battlefront II website with an announcement that new content will soon be available based on Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi.

First, it has been revealed that players who join Origin Access or EA Access will soon be able to play a portion of the game early with the Star Wars Battlefront II Play First Trial.  With this trial period players will be able to play a portion of the game early up to ten hours.

Next, it has been announced that some “Free” content will be launching for the game this December.

Some of the content include:

It all starts with choosing a side. On December 5, you’ll have an opportunity to align with the First Order or choose to fight for the Resistance. Your choice is important, as it will allow you to take part in special challenges that will grant your faction specific rewards. 

Things kick into high gear on December 13. Your favorite stormtrooper-turned-hero Finn joins the fight for the Resistance and Captain Phasma steps on to the Battlefront for the First Order. They can be purchased with in-game Credits that week. Whichever faction is victorious in completing the most challenges that week will net a reward as well: a special Crate of high-power upgrades for Finn or Captain Phasma.

New locations and vehicles will also arrive. On December 13, the cinematic content from Star Wars™: The Last Jedi continues with a new planetary map: Crait. The Starfighter Assault map of D’Qar will join as well, plus a new hero ship –  Tallie Lintra’s RZ-2 A-wing. Poe Dameron’s T-70 X-wing is also upgraded with a new ability inspired by Star Wars™: The Last Jedi .

Iden Versio returns. In Star Wars™ Battlefront™ II Resurrection, you’ll join Commander Iden Versio during the days of the First Order’s rise to power. These new chapters of Star Wars™ Battlefront™ II’s single-player story mode will be available December 13.

Your choice of faction will continue to matter. Throughout December, you’ll see your chosen faction’s progress reflected in-game, as you fight alongside allies from around the world to swing the tide of battle. 

More details about the upcoming content can be viewed at the link below.

Star Wars Battlefront II will be released for the Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Steam on November 17.
