The game lets players choose whether to control a Rebel Alliance soldier or an Imperial Stormtrooper. Battlefront does not feature iron sights apart from one blaster, but allows players to zoom in for better accuracy. As new weapons are unlocked, players have the ability to share them with their teammates. The game's weapons, characters, gear, and abilities are customizable. The only maps that are space-based were added through DLC, namely in the 'Death Star' pack (released in September 2016), which included the titular Death Star, and the ' Rogue One' pack (released in December 2016 and based on the movie of the same name), which included Scarif. Battles are planet-based, restricting players from exploring space. To navigate the game's various maps, players use a variety of vehicles, including both air and land-based vehicles, such as speeder bikes and AT-STs, which can be unlocked during every match by finding tokens that spawn randomly across the map. Players traverse planets from the original Star Wars trilogy, such as Endor, Hoth, Tatooine, Bespin, and Sullust, as well as the planet of Jakku introduced in the sequel trilogy.

Star Wars Battlefront is an action game played from either a first-person or third-person view players can switch views whenever desired, similar to previous games, except when controlling 'hero' characters or their personal guards. Players can control characters from the films, such as Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. A sequel, Star Wars Battlefront II, was released on November 17, 2017. Despite this, the game was a commercial success with more than 14 million copies sold worldwide. The game, based on the Star Wars film franchise, is the third major release in the Star Wars: Battlefront sub-series, but is considered a reboot to the previous games, instead of a sequel, to reflect the new Star Wars canon that Lucasfilm established (to replace the Star Wars expanded universe) after being acquired by The Walt Disney Company.īattlefront received mixed to positive reviews from critics, who praised its gameplay, visuals, music, technical aspects and high production values, but criticized its lack of content at launch in both single and multiplayer modes, and use of a season pass model.
