Starting with tomorrow’s free content update, here’s what players can expect to find:
-
The Tatooine Survival map will now support the Blast, Droid Run, Drop Zone, Hero Hunt, and Heroes vs Villains multiplayer modes, and is called Raider Camp.
-
New Hoth-themed outfits for Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, both of which will be available to all fans when they play as these two iconic characters on Hoth – these were unlocked by our players for completing our Heroes’ Holiday community mission last month.
-
We are giving players the ability to create Private Matches, which makes playing with friends even easier.
-
The introduction of Daily Challenges and Community Events. These are designed to rally the Community around certain goals and objectives, giving players the chance to earn credits and unlocks even faster. We’ll have more news regarding Community Events and Daily Challenges in the days ahead.
-
And of course, we are also including some overall balancing tweaks to both weapons and multiplayer modes.
Battlefront Content Update
In February, players will get a new Hoth Survival mission and Hoth multiplayer map that supports the larger game modes, including Walker Assault, Supremacy, Fighter Squadron and Turning Point. All maps that currently support Walker Assault and Supremacy will also receive Turning Point as an additional mode. In March, a new Tatooine Survival mission and a new Endor multiplayer map that supports Walker Assault, Supremacy, and Turning Point will be added. All of this content will be free for players to download.
