We’re slowly edging closer to the November 2017 launch date of EA’s Star Wars Battlefront 2. As we do so, EA has treated us to more and more tidbits as to the improvements they have made upon their 2015 endeavour. EA previously teased us with this trailer showcasing some of the intergalactic space battles that fans have craved with the Starfighter Assault mode, and Gamescom has provided the perfect opportunity to showcase this even further as IGN live streamed EA’s presentation of their beautifully crafted Battlefront 2. Check out nine minutes of gameplay here…
The 9 minutes of brand new footage showcased here, provide just the start of the new space battles up for offer. Claiming that every ship has had their controls overhauled to give each craft a different feel, EA and Lucasfilm have tried to go above and beyond to bring back loyal fans to their property.
An exciting addition to the already stacked roster of new features in Battlefront 2, flying the Millennium Falcon has never seemed better than it does here. Brandishing some brand new battle craft and recreating the elements that gives Star Wars that magical quality, Battlefront 2 is seemingly going to be great addition to gamers and Star Wars fans alike.
