EA announced the changes to the game onthe officialStar Wars : Battlefront 2website . The game was recently update witha unexampled , limited ( and very fun ) mode Ewok Hunt . Ewok Hunt cast players as opposing team of Stormtroopers and the Ewoks who were hunting them from the shadows . The Han Solo season will be much more rich .
Right off the chiropteran , Battlefront IIwill add the map of Jabba ’s Palace ( part of the Outer Rim DLC in EA ’s firstBattlefront ) into the plot . It ’s currently unclear if the map added toBattlefront IIwill be an exact replication of the map from the first secret plan , or there will be new locations and a layout . However , fans will be able-bodied to play game in Jabba ’s Palace in style Blast , Hero Showdown or Heroes vs. Villains .
speak of Hero Showdown , it ’s first of the new two modes that Han Solo season will lend to the game . The mode will function very likewise to Heroes vs. Villains . Yet instead of it being a squad of Heron pass away up against a squad of villains , players will vie in duos . Using the classic partnership of Han and Chewbacca as a basis , Battlefront IIplayers will be able to desegregate and match canon - bump duos like Darth Vader and Captain Phasma vs. Finn and Yoda . In gain , Han Solo time of year will supply a new custom Starfighter mode to the Arcade . This ’ll let players practice their fly skills without the menace of real - life ( and much better ) online opponents .
last , Han Solo season will add some novel skins and appearance to the game . Battlefront IIadding cosmetic feature of speech is how thegame has put back in its controversial microtransactions , but in a way that does n’t touch gameplay at all . To get the young looks inBattlefront IIis operate to take ( a pile of ) endeavor but Han Solo season will add newfangled skins for Leia and Lando , taken from the opening ofReturn of the Jedi . participant with enough credit ( or crystals ) can find Boussh the bounty hunter ’s cogwheel ( with Modern voice - over lines ) or Lando ’s Skiff guard armor . There sadly is no Donald Glover cutis for Lando yet .
Since its release , Star Wars : Battlefront IIhas been fighting on the back metrical foot with fans . The lucre boxes and progression organization the plot launched with were a total disaster . Itseverely bear on the sales and figures get along far under what was expected . Yet new ( free ) content like Han Solo time of year is a very much a pace in the veracious direction . Whether it ’ll really entice musician to repay , or bestow new ones in , stay to be see but at least EA is trying .
Star Wars : Battlefront IIwill launching Han Solo season on May 16 .
