For a while Star Wars Battlefront II only focused on giving us Clone Wars era updates, and we only got some new Resistance goods with the Rise of Skywalker expansion last December. What’s interesting is the game is finally coming back to the “Age of Rebellion” this February.
As per the latest community transmission, the Original Trilogy era will be added to Co-Op along with the renamed game mode, Supremacy (formerly Capital Supremacy). This new game mode will also be bringing a map from 2015’s Battlefront DLC, Scarif (from Rogue One)—probably one of the most requested maps ever since the game launched.
One big difference between these Age of Rebellion maps is that the fight will focus primarily on the ground—meaning that there won’t be any more flying to big ships to destroy from the inside. My guess is the game mode can end once all command posts are taken, but maybe players can just be transported to another part of the map where another goal has to be achieved.
We don’t have any specific release date for this DLC yet, but we’re going to get some updates to come February. While a lot of fans love the Clone Wars, the OT timeline is personally my favorite. Hopefully, we get some new skins soon because I’d love to see some X-Wing pilots on the ground.
Though there was a slight delay, the next expansion for Star Wars Battlefront II comes out Feb. 3. The game is now playable for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
