Since E3 2015, where the first gameplay was finally revealed to the masses, EA and DICE have been steadily releasing new information on the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront as the release date continues to approach. The multiplayer shooter promises to feature a lot content for gamers including a slew of multiplayer modes which have been revealed, such as Blast and Fighter Squadron, with three additional modes on the way.
Disney and EA were quite busy this past weekend celebrating all aspects of the Disney universe including Star Wars at the D23 event in Anaheim. For fans of Star Wars Battlefront, a few more details were revealed including a few bits of news on the Battle of Jakku DLC pack.
During the “It’s Game Time: Disney Interactive Takes The Stage” panel at D23 2015, EA Star Wars general manager Justin Mccully gave fans a bit more information about the upcoming DLC pack including a first look at new concept art. The photo primarily features a downed X-Wing in the sands of the planet Jakku while another image shows a developer taking a picture of actual sand to help create the concept art.
In addition to the art reveal, Mccully also put a hard date on the free DLC. Fans can download the add-on starting on December 8. He also reiterated that fans who preorder Star Wars Battlefront will gain access to the content a week earlier on December 1.
