Star Wars: Battlefront
Pre-ordering Star Wars: Battlefront gets you a level that takes place on Jakku – an important world in Episode VII – and this is the first glimpse.
It's not a trailer or a screenshot, but is instead a pair of concept art images. Here are some additional details from Battlefront's website:
Taking place in the aftermath of the Rebel victory in the Battle of Endor, players will experience the events that created the massive, battle-scarred landscape of Jakku shown in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
In the artwork above, a Star Destroyer has crash landed, and from the belly of this battle-scared metal giant, a myriad of Imperial ground troops have evacuated and engaged with Rebel troops, also strangers to this desert planet.
Star Wars: Battlefront releases November 17, but the Jakku DLC won't be available until December 1.
