Star Wars: Battlefront
While moviegoers must wait until December 18 to see the desert planet of Jakku on the big screen in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, gamers can now glimpse how the war-ravaged world looks in Star Wars Battlefront. The latest trailer for the anticipated shooter presents a chaotic battle that unfolds on the planet's surface.
The brief snippet of footage opens with a rebel soldier crawling to his feet amidst a battleground covered in wreckage. X-Wings and TIE Fighters swarm in a fierce dogfight overhead, and burning Star Destroyers plummet through the sky. AT-ATs loom over the battlefield, close to one of the crashed capital ships.
Battlefront players will be able to take part in the titanic battle between the New Republic and Imperial holdouts on Jakku when the map becomes available for free on December 8. Those who can’t wait to blast Stormtroopers on the planet's sandy surface can pre-order to get a week of early access. In the meantime, check out Brian Shea’s preview to read how Battlefront’s multiplayer stacks up.
