You Can Play Star Wars Battlefront Next Week If You Live In The Right Place
EA is holding play test sessions for Star Wars Battlefront next week. If you happen to live in one of the two areas in which they are taking place, you can sign up to help.
EA announced on one of its Facebook pages that two studios will be hosting members of the public. EA Redwood Shores in California and EA Canada in Burnaby will be welcoming fans on Friday, April 10.
In order to be considered, you need to sign up on one of the location specific links. For EA Canada, click here. For EA Redwood shores, visit this link.
Those selected won’t just get to play Star Wars Battlefront early. They will also receive two free EA games of their choice. The application simply asks your name, age, email address, and whether you are near the location of the session.
If you’re chosen, carve out three to four hours next Friday. While we suspect you’ll be under NDA, in the event you aren’t, feel free to let us know what you think. And if you aren't attending Star Wars Celebration, don't forget that the upcoming trailer will be posted online.

Our Take
We won’t have a chance to see the game until Star Wars Celebration in a couple of weeks, and even then it will be hands-off. I’m jealous of those of you about to take this one for a spin.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
