It would had been fun to get something more unusual, instead of the expected, something a little more exotic that would make more sense in this context. But as much as we love this, as Star Wars fans, we do think there is a slight case of overusing these classic icons, and neither the Millennium Falcon or Slave 1 are really fighters. Thus, the rebels can fly around with the Millennium Falcon as backup and the Empire gets the much needed backing of Boba Fett's ship Slave 1.

Just like in the normal game, there are power-ups here and there in space, but now they repair your ship or let you acquire a legendary one. The feeling of flying around the giant Star Destroyers in a fragile A-wing is phenomenal, and the effort from the Imperial fleet to stop the rebel assault is one of true might. This has been in huge demand since the game was announced, and now it has finally arrived. We'd rather see EA and DICE charging for cosmetic stuff, or something similar to the REQ Packs in Halo 5: Guardian, or even EA's own Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare.įortunately, Death Star includes something fans have wanted for a very long time and offers good value for your hard earned cash - space battles. We're also not completely sold on the idea of dividing the player base by charging for certain maps, not ideal for those buying (fewer players to play with) and clearly not for those who are stuck playing the old maps. But at the end of the day they just delivered what we've come to expect from traditional multiplayer DLC. Definitely worth the money as they that let us visit Jabba's spooky palace and the gorgeous Cloud City. The radio chatter reveals that several colleagues are in trouble already, but along with a few others we manage to get through swarm after swarm of TIE Fighters and can start offloading our torpedoes and lasers onto the Star Destroyer's shields.īoth the Outer Rim and Bespin DLC packs were rather enjoyable multiplayer expansions for Star Wars Battlefront. Two TIE Advanced starfighters fly past with that unmistakable shrieking sound that's the last sound many an X-Wing pilot has heard before succumbing. With a hissing sound, our X-wing stretches out its wings in the classic X-formation, and one of the most famous battles in the Star Wars universe can begin. Massive hangars that can accommodate entire swarms of TIE Fighters, and that's the most immediate threat. However, they have some means to counter their relative lack of agility. It may sound like suicide, but Star Destroyers aren't exactly suited to hunting down smaller ships.

The Death Star looms as an ominous reminder of the might of the Empire far off in the distance, but as Rebels, before we can even consider blowing it up, we have to get past a number of Star Destroyers.
