After "Star Wars Battlefront" beta has come to an end, EA has unveiled to gamers what will be offered at the launch. The game developer gave information on Season Pass, an Ultimate Edition, and what entails all the game modes.
Through its website, the game developer confirmed that there will be a Season Pass for the upcoming "Star Wars Battlefront." The pass will unlock all four DLC expansions when they are launched. There is yet an announcement about DLC packs, and therefore, gamers will have to wait and see what they actually are before getting excited.
Furthermore, Season Pass allows players two-week exclusive accesses to the DLC content in addition to a "Shoot First" emote. The Season Pass is already available for preorder at $49.99.
According to iDigital Times, EA has also announced the availability of a "Star Wars Battle front Ultimate Edition." The version will include all of the content from the Deluxe Edition and Season Pass. The Deluxe Edition will include access to Han Solo's Blaster, the MPL Ion Torpedo (an exclusive Ion Shock emote), the Ion Grenade, and a unique Victory emote.
New game modes will include "Hero Hunt," "Cargo," "Droid Run," and "Heroes vs. Villains."
In the "Hero Hunt," a gamer spawns as a hero or villain character as seven other gamers play as troopers from the opposition. The game then plays out with the seven teammates trying to collaborate in destroying one Hero or Villain. The player who eventually kills becomes the nest hero or villain.
On the other hand, the "Cargo" game mode is essentially "Capture the Flag." This mode features Rebels and Imperials in their respective bases. Each base has important cargo, which compels players to spend the match attempting to break through the enemy base, get the cargo, and return to their base.
The "Droid Run" mode is a fascinating take on a base-holding mode. There are three GNK Droids all over the 6v6 game map, all of which should be secured. The challenge is that the droids move around, making it difficult to hold onto them.
This game mode will have no heroes, villains or vehicles. When it comes to the "Heroes vs. Villains" game mode, while it is not detailed, it appears this is a fairly straightforward battle mode, but it has a hero and villain on each team.
For a player to ensure there are more points for his or her team, it is vital to keep Heroes and Villains alive during the match. The team with the highest points eventually wins.
