Watch the Full 'Star Wars Battlefront II' Reveal Trailer
A plot twist featuring a new character is unveiled.
After receiving a glimpse of the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront II earlier this week via a leaked teaser, EA has unveiled the full-length reveal trailer. One of the twists is that players will assume the role of a soldier in the Imperial navy, rather than a Jedi or part of the Rebel Alliance. “We settled on this idea of telling a story from the Imperial perspective. The idea of special forces soldiers gave us this chance to become a new hero,” Mark Thompson, game director at EA’s Motive Studios mentioned during a preview event. Centered around a female stormtrooper named Iden Versio, commander of the elite Inferno Squad, players will be able to encounter various characters from the franchise’s expansive 30-year history, while also taking on roles of other fan favorites like Kylo Ren and Luke Skywalker. Watch the full trailer above and be on the lookout for the game releasing on November 17, 2017.
