EA Releasing Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition in November for Rogue One

WDWNT on October 24, 2016

Although there won’t be a new AAA Star Wars games releasing this Fall, but EA still has something coming to store shelves just in time for Rogue One.

To celebrate Battlefront‘s one-year anniversary, EA will release Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition this November. The package will include the base game and all of the content that has released post-launch through the Season Pass. This means the Outer Rim, Bespin, Death Star, and the upcoming Rogue One: Scarif (which will release in December) expansions will all be included in one release. That adds up to over 30 maps, 14 heroes, and 14 game modes.

According to a listing on Amazon, the game will retail for $39.99 and release on November 18, however, the Microsoft Store has the digital version listed for $69.99.While EA has not yet announced a solid release date or price point, it is unclear which, if either, listing is correct. That said, it seems like the November 18 release is probably accurate. It is not uncommon for Amazon to completely and accurately leak a product ahead of release. It happens all the time.

The Ultimate Edition is nothing too exciting, especially if you already own Star Wars Battlefront, but hey, at least that Rogue One: Scarif expansion is something to look forward to.

WDWNT on September 26, 2016

It has been a while since we’ve heard anything about the Death Star DLC, but we now have confirmation that season pass holders can jump in starting on September 20.

EA posted a new trailer for the DLC, which you can see below, that showcases the new maps, weapons, and yes, Chewbacca.

Of course Chewie isn’t the only new hero that will be added in the DLC. Bounty hunter Bossk makes his debut appearance and offers players more variety in their arsenal of heroes. Each character offers a variety of new abilities, including Chewbacca’s roar, Multi-Bolts, and ground slam, as well as Bossk’s health regeneration and Micro-Grenades.

Battle Station is the DLC’s main attraction though, as it will put players in the action of the famous Death Star battle (who knows which one). Battle Station will feature three distinct phases of action. In phase one, players will fly X-Wings and fight off incoming TIE fighters. Phase two takes place inside the space station where an on foot battle will commence. Finally in phase three, players will fly through the trenches of the Death Star to take it down for good, or until the next sequel.

As usual, the DLC will be available for season pass holders first, so players looking to buy the DLC separately will have to wait at least another two weeks.
