Unlike the previous entries in the series, Star Wars Battlefront 2 will feature a single player campaign. The campaign, which will be set in the 30 years between the destruction of Death Star II and the through the rise of the First Oder will be around 5-7 hours long.
Following its release, Star Wars Battlefront 2 will be supported with plenty of new content such as characters, Star Cards and more.
Every player who owns Star Wars Battlefront II will have access to the same iconic characters, planetary conflicts, sleek starfighters, and epic space battles throughout the entirety of the post-release support period. This starts with the Star Wars: The Last Jedi Season coming this December, where all Star Wars Battlefront II players will get access to Finn, Captain Phasma, the new planet Crait, and more.
These new heroes will come with new Star Cards as well. Star Wars Battlefront II players will also be able to customize their favorite heroes and classes using Star Cards, which come in four rarities: Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Epic – all of which can be earned through play. Completing the in-game quests and challenges, taking part in events, and opening Crates can all grant Star Cards, which allow you to further customize your trooper, hero, and starfighter abilities.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 launches on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on November 17th.
