The Star Wars Show Shares Battlefront II Naboo Map Teaser Image
Last week, EA revealed Star Wars Battlefront II Assault on Theed livestream is coming on June 10. The Naboo-based skirmish features 40-player skirmishes between Separatist droids and Republic clone troopers. Today, the Star Wars Show gave us our first glimpse of this location.
This teaser image shows the breathtaking vistas we remember from the prequel trilogy. All of these info drops are the appetizers for the main dish at EA Play on Saturday. In addition to the multiplayer action, we expect to see some form of the single-player campaign.
Star Wars Battlefront II is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC on November 17.
Our Take
Given the lackluster reputation of the prequel trilogy, we're surprised that EA and DICE chose this as a centerpiece of the next reveal. Wouldn't a location from either The Force Awakens or Rogue One have trended better?
