The game’s Han Solo content is all about the galaxy’s most famous smuggler and this upcoming batch of Star Wars Battlefront 2 content focuses on locations, vehicles, and costumes from the most recent Star Wars film.
Here’s the hype trailer for the new content and a list of everything that players can expect come June 12…
New Location Kessel – The notorious coaxium mines of the planet Kessel will available in a variety of modes including Blast, Hero Showdown, Heroes vs. Villains or Extraction.
Extraction Mode – This popular mode first seen in Star Wars Battlefront Outer Rim will make its return. In extraction, an infiltration squad must retrieve and escape with a critical payload while fending off enemy forces. Players will join as either attackers or defenders in this asymmetrical and intense mode.
Lando’s Millennium Falcon – Take the Millennium Falcon for a spin prior to when Han Solo won it in a game of sabac.
New Appearances – Arrive to battle in style with new Appearances for Han Solo, Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca, all carefully modeled after their looks in Solo: A Star Wars Story.
It’s pretty exciting that the iconic Kessel will be a playable location and fans of space fighting will also get a kick out of the retro Falcon, that has a few unique differences from the version everyone is used to. The tie-in to the film seems unlikely to bring back lapsed players, but time will tell.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is currently available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
