VIDEO GAMES: The Battle Of Jakku Revealed In Trailer For STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT
What led to those Imperial ships being scattered all over Jakku in Star Wars: The Force Awakens? That's what some upcoming free Star Wars: Battlefront DLC is going to reveal, and you can get a first look at that mode after the jump! It looks pretty damn epic, that's for sure...
The Battle of Jakku takes place 29 years before the events of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and it features what remains of the Imperials fighting off a determined New Republic who are more confident than ever following their recent victory during the Battle of Endor. "At the edge of the map, the Empire has constructed a make-shift base as well as smaller fortifications strewn across the landscape. Following an emergency landing, the Rebels need to locate the enemy bases to attack and take control of them all," lead level designer Dennis Brannvall explains to IGN.
"Rebels need to locate and capture one of the three control points in Imperial control. The clock is ticking, but if the Rebel team succeeds with a capture additional time will be added and new control points will be available for capture. Moving through these increasingly challenging checkpoints, the ultimate goal is the Empire’s base where the final stand will take place." There will be two maps in The Battle of Jakku DLC, and those who pre-ordered Star Wars: Battlefront will be able to try out the mode on December 1st. What do you think of this new look at the game?
